Paulo Picasso

French motorcycle racer and chauffeur to his famous father, Spanish artist Pablo Picasso. His father married his mother Olga Khokhlova, a Ukrainian ballet dancer, on 12 July 1918 in Paris. After Paulos birth, Olga and Picassos relationship deteriorated. In 1927, Picasso began an affair with a seventeen-year-old French girl, Marie-Thérèse Walter. In 1935, Olga learned of the affair from a friend, who also informed her that Walter was pregnant. Immediately, Olga took Paulo, moved to the South of France, and filed for divorce. Picasso refused to divide his property evenly with her as required by French law, so Olga stayed legally married to him until her death from cancer in Cannes, France in 1955. Paulo, who died on 5 June 1975, was married to Emilienne Lotte. They had two children: Pablito (born on 5 May 1949 – committed suicide on 2 July 1973) and Marina (born on 14 November 1950).
