According to a report, poisoned Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny remains a thorn in the side of Russian President Vladimir Putin after discovering the Instagram account of the strong man’s alleged 17-year-old lovechild.
Putin, 68, has been linked by Russian outlet Proekt to Svetlana Krivonogikh, a cleaning lady worth more than $ 100 million who lives in an upscale neighborhood of Saint Petersburg.
Glamorous images of her luxury-loving daughter Elizaveta – aka Luiza – have surfaced online featuring the teen wearing a Gucci mask, posing seductively in designer outfits and drinking booze amid the coronavirus pandemic, the Sun reported.
The teen’s Instagram account has been exposed by Navalny, who was taken into custody Sunday night after flying home for the first time since he was poisoned last summer, the news center said.
Her postings reveal her love for top luxury brands, including YSL, Bottega Veneta, Miu Miu, Tom Ford, Chanel, Jacquemus, Dolce & Gabbana, Valentino, Alexander Wang and Maison Margiela, The Sun reported.
A video on Luiza’s account shows her dancing with a Russian teen who attended a school in Surrey, England, and according to the report, rumors spread that she was also being educated in the UK.
The teen’s Instagram followers shot from 17,000 to 42,000 in a matter of hours when she lashed out at her jealous ‘haters’.
“Wow, I see a jersey paid for by my taxes. How many pensions does this sweater cost? said one user, the sun reported.
“What do you say at school when they ask you, ‘Who is your father?’” Said another.
Another offered the singer, “What’s it like to be born with Putin’s face?”
Luiza, who is said to have lived under a false name for years, was born in 2003 while Putin was still married to the now ex Lyudmila Shkrebneva.
Proekt said her birth records do not mention a father, only mentioning “Vladimirovna” as the name derived from her father.
Luiza’s mother, now 45, had been a cleaner from a humble background before becoming a beneficiary of a company that owns a small stake in the Putin-linked Rossiya Bank, and also owns properties in numerous cities, according to the Proekt probe.
She also runs a nightlife venue known for “ erotic shows, ” the report says, estimating her total net worth at at least $ 102 million.
Putin has never officially confirmed his two daughters from his first marriage – Maria and Katerina, who are both in their 30s – and is rumored to have up to four children with former gymnast Alina Kabaeva.
Navalny’s latest revelation comes after he claimed in a viral video that Putin owns a lavish multi-billion dollar palace built with fraudulently obtained money.
The Kremlin promptly denied that Putin owned the palace.
Navalny was jailed for 30 days on his return to Moscow in connection with alleged violations of a suspended prison sentence in an embezzlement case he claims was fabricated.
He fell into a coma on August 20 on a domestic flight from Siberia to Moscow. Two days later he was transferred from a hospital in Siberia to a hospital in Berlin.
Labs in Germany, France and Sweden, and tests by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, showed that he was exposed to a Soviet-era nerve agent Novichok.
