Russian President Vladimir Putin and his rumored long-time partner, former Olympic gymnast Alina Kabaeva, are reported to have two sons, aged nine and five. According to recent investigations, these two children, Ivan and Vladimir Jr., live in a highly secured residence near Lake Valdai, northwest of Moscow.
The report, based on sources who claim to have seen the children regularly, reveals that the boys lead an isolated and luxurious life, far from the public eye. Despite Putin publicly acknowledging two daughters, Maria and Katerina, with his ex-wife Lyudmila, his connection with Kabaeva has remained unofficial, though it is believed their relationship began in 2008.
Life of Seclusion
The boys, Ivan and Vladimir Jr., reportedly live in extreme isolation. Their lives are highly protected, with round-the-clock security provided by the Kremlin’s Federal Protective Service. A team of nannies, governesses, and personal trainers manage their day-to-day activities. They have not attended traditional schools but are educated privately at home.
Reports suggest Ivan was born in Switzerland, while Vladimir Jr. was born in Moscow. The doctor who delivered the boys passed away under mysterious circumstances last year. Despite their privileged upbringing, they lead a life devoid of much social interaction.
Lavish Lifestyle
The children enjoy a life filled with luxury. Their days are structured around private lessons in music, swimming, and artistic gymnastics. Ivan has even competed in gymnastics and plays hockey with his father.
Their meals are prepared by personal chefs, and they have access to private gym facilities, swimming pools, and exclusive travel arrangements via private jets or armored trains. Summers are spent on luxurious yachts in the Gulf of Finland and along the Black Sea coast.
The boys’ identities remain tightly guarded, with little to no public records, reflecting Putin's concern over their privacy.
Properties and Wealth
Amid rising scrutiny due to the conflict in Ukraine, reports have surfaced about Putin using significant funds to secure properties for Kabaeva and their children. The family reportedly resides in a lavish mansion on Putin’s estate near Lake Valdai. The 13,000-square-foot palace was completed in 2021, and its design mimics a traditional Russian dacha.
Further revelations suggest that Kabaeva’s family members also benefit from Putin’s wealth. Her grandmother reportedly owns a three-storey mansion near Moscow valued at approximately â‚ą99.18 crore.
These revelations about Putin’s alleged family life have emerged at a time of increased international focus on Russia. While official confirmation remains elusive, the reported lavish lifestyle and high security surrounding Kabaeva and her children highlight the intense privacy Putin maintains around his personal affairs.
