Alina Kabaeva, the former Olympic gymnast and ex-partner of Russian President Vladimir Putin, appears to have moved on following their surprising split.
A New Sparkling Ring
Once a couple for decades, Kabaeva, 41, is now embracing a new chapter in her life, marked by her revitalized public presence and a mysterious new ring on her finger.
In a recent Instagram post, Kabaeva cheerfully greeted schoolchildren on their first day back to class, showcasing her positive spirit.
However, what caught the attention of her 113,000 followers was a sparkling ring adorning her right hand, prompting speculation about whether she has a new romantic interest.
Kabaeva and Putin, 71, had a private relationship, and insiders suggest they share four children together, including two sons, Ivan, 9, and Vladimir Jr., 5.
Withdrew From the Public
Their long-standing romance reportedly ended in early 2024 when Putin found comfort in the arms of influencer Yekaterina Mizulina, 40. During this challenging time, Kabaeva withdrew from the public eye to focus on her children.
Now, however, Kabaeva seems to be back in the spotlight, with fans expressing both support and curiosity about her new ring.
One follower questioned, "Ring but husband is unknown?" while another noted, "Putin seems to have no ring on his finger."
Many are left wondering who might be the new man in Kabaeva's life, as she has not publicly confirmed any new relationship.
As Kabaeva continues to navigate her post-split life, the intrigue surrounding her new ring and potential love interests remains a hot topic among her followers and the media alike.
