In a recent legal development that has captured the attention of the Cook County community, Wheeling residents Eleonora Sarumova and Davit Gabrielyan have taken the significant step of initiating divorce proceedings. This decision, while deeply personal, sheds light on the complexities of human relationships and the emotional journey of untangling two lives.

The couple, who exchanged vows on July 22, 2007, now finds themselves at a crossroads, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the impetus for their marital dissolution. This legal process was set in motion on September 22, 2023, marking a profound moment in their lives.

Eleonora and Davit’s union has been blessed with two children. Their eldest, Samvel Gabrielyan, was born on April 8, 2008, and is currently 15 years old, while Yeva Gabrielyan, born on November 18, 2013, is now 9 years old. The filing underscores the importance of considering the well-being of these children as a top priority throughout the divorce proceedings.

While the document does not explicitly assign blame for the dissolution, it firmly emphasizes the need for a just and equitable division of both marital debts and property. Eleonora Sarumova, represented by Lena Goretsky Winters from Winters Family Law LLP, seeks not only a fair share of the marital property but also significant decision-making responsibilities for the children. The latter includes a parenting schedule that is thoughtfully designed to serve the best interests of Samvel and Yeva. Additionally, Eleonora has petitioned for child support from Davit, ensuring the children’s financial stability and well-being.

Interestingly, the document makes no mention of a request for spousal maintenance, perhaps signaling an amicable separation in terms of financial support for the spouses themselves.
