Alina Kabaeva is in Moscow
Alina is currently in Moscow for a junior rhythmic gymnastics rehearsal. Indeed Alina, 38, is a former Olympic gold-medallist gymnast. The junior rhythmic gymnastics rehearsal is in Moscow’s VTB Arena a few days before the Alina Festival which is a charity event scheduled for this Saturday (April 23).
Some of the participating gymnasts have posted pictures of themselves and Alina - who doesn’t have any form of social media - on Instagram.
This surprising appearance of Alina Kabaeva comes after a petition was launched to kick the Russian President’s ‘lover’ and children out of Switzerland.
Has Alina Kabaeva had plastic surgery?
With the new pictures of Putin’s lover online, some have noticed that she looks different. There are rumours that the ex-gymnast has had plastic surgery, the same as Putin. Some have even said they think that she has visited the same plastic surgeon as the Russian President.
Telegram channel's Tol'ko Nikomu said:
A new rare appearance of Alina Kabaeva. This time she is dressed casually - and is again seen with a wedding ring.
And yes, the handwriting of the family beautician is quite notable.
The channel has to choose its words carefully in order to avoid the Russian censorship.
