Vogue Russia’s January Covergirl is also Vladimir Putin’s mistress.

Since Vladimir Putin and his wife, Lyudmila have gone public to announce that they have decided to divorce and go their own ways questions abound are starting to be asked if whether Vladimir Putin carried on a series of affairs that may have disarmed his wife.

Rumors that things were amiss between Vladimir and Putin were yesterday confirmed when the Putins were asked on Rossiya-24 television about whether the Putins still lived together or not, the 60-year-old Putin went on to confirm that he and his wife indeed were no longer living together.

‘I don’t like publicity and flying is difficult for me.’

In October 2010 the Putins tried to quell rumours they had divorced by posing for pictures as they jointly answered questions for the national census.

An inclination to no longer continue the charade may have finally forced the Putins to gracefully exit their marriage as Vladimir continues to dominate public affairs and it seems some younger hearts besides that of his Lyudmila…
