President Vladimir Putin has two young sons with former Olympic gymnast Alina Kabaeva, both of which have been living in secret since their births, according to a report by a Russian investigative group started by a former billionaire Putin foe, though Putin and Kabaeva have denied romantic ties for more than a decade. Putin and Kabaeva share two sons, Ivan Putin and Vladimir Putin Jr., who were born in 2015 and 2019, respectively, according to the Dossier Center, a Russian investigative news organization that cited unnamed sources who claimed to regularly see the children. Putin, 71, has publicly acknowledged having...

Vladimir Putin's lover snapped with impatience at a weeping young gymnastics star in the same week she was revealed to have two young sons with the Kremlin dictator. -snip- But extraordinary footage from this week shows Kabaeva - an Olympic gold-medal winning rhythmic gymnast - berating talented Karolina Tarasova during a training session in Sochi, reducing the teenager to tears. The girl, from Putin-occupied Donetsk in Ukraine, is a student at Kabaeva's elite gymnastics Sky Grace Academy in Sochi, which released the videos of the grumpy secret Kremlin first lady, who appears to be wearing a wedding ring, possibly suggesting...

An Olympic gold medalist long rumoured to be Vladimir Putin’s mistress hasn’t been seen for weeks. Alina Kabaeva, 40, hasn’t made a public appearance since October 22 during a visit to her elite gymnastics school in Sochi, a Russian city on the Black Sea. Just days later a sketchy Telegram blog said the Russian president had died of a cardiac arrest, a claim the Kremlin furiously denied as ‘fake news’ at best. Only a week before, the General SVR account alleged that if the leader were to die, a body double would likely rule in his stead. Kabaeva was last...

Vladimir Putin’s alleged secret gymnast partner has not been seen in public since rumours emerged of the Kremlin leader’s death. -snip- Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva, a woman who is claimed to be the mother of two or three of Putin’s children, and his secret lover, also hasn’t been seen since late October. This is said to be around the date Putin supposedly suffered a heart attack and she has not re-emerged since. Earlier in October she was highly visible in footage from her Alina Kabaeva Sky Grace Rhythmic Gymnastics Academy in Sochi - an elite training base for future sports...

I wasn’t planning on grandchildren for at least another five years, but my son came home at age 22 and informed me that he was going to be a father. I am not a fan of his girlfriend at all; there is just something about her that makes me not trust her. I tried to communicate this to my son, but he is blinded by her beauty, among other things, and has never been able to hear what I have to say about her. Now that the baby has arrived, my son truly has blinders on. He is so in...

Hunter Biden and his Arkansas baby mama have settled their bitter, years-long paternity battle over the daughter the First Son refuses to meet. Hunter and former flame Lunden Roberts submitted an agreed order to Independence County Circuit Court on Monday afternoon for Circuit Judge Holly Meyer to approve, DailyMail.com has learned. The document will become public within the next 24 hours but with heavy redactions to keep the full financial arrangements of four-year-old Navy Joan Roberts’ upbringing a secret. A New York Post report published last week suggested that Roberts, 32, had signed a deal agreeing to slash the $20,000...

The Arkansas judge overseeing Hunter Biden’s long-running child support battle with his baby mama chastised the first son’s lawyers Monday for being stingy with his financial data. Judge Holly Meyer rebuked the 53-year-old’s legal team during the two-hour proceedings, saying they wrongly concealed details of filings that had already been submitted to the court as part of the ongoing legal saga. “The ability to redact is somewhat being abused,” the judge told Hunter’s attorneys before ordering them to refile some of those papers. It wasn’t immediately clear exactly what financial information was included in the filings. Hunter appeared in a...

(More on an earlier post) It began with a rumor. Sir Maejor, an ethnically black actor and model with a fair complexion due to albinism, tweeted Monday that “I am being told that Tyre Nichols was in a relationship with and worked at a Memphis @FedEx with #MemphisPolice Demetrius Halys’s ex-girlfriend & baby mama.” Not only that, but “After the beating Officer Halys took a pictures of #TyreNichols face and sent it to his babymama.” The following day, Maejor added a disclaimer in all caps: “THIS IS MERELY SPECULATIONS AND OR A RUMOR AT THIS POINT — THIS INFORMATION HAS...

Hunter Biden filed for a Protective Order of his financial records....fears that such information would be used 'maliciously' by the media Any such disclosures, Biden's attorneys claim, would also cause their client 'undue prejudice, annoyance, embarrassment, and/or oppression' While baby mama Roberts is said to agree that a Protective Order is appropriate, she has so far refused to fully commit to the current terms demanded by Biden Roberts is suing Biden for $11K in legal fees as well as child support payments Biden is also requesting an upcoming December 2 hearing be delayed until a decision on the Protective Order...

On her MSNBC show this morning, Joy Reid referred to Donald Trump's wives, which would include First Lady Melania, as "baby mamas." Reid did so in the context of wondering how the religious right, such as those at Liberty University where Pres. Trump is delivering the commencement address today, can support Trump, given that he is "a guy who's had three wives, five babies with three baby mamas." Here's the YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPjoBeR4avI

Men who want to have sex with women who aren't interested in taking pills or getting abortions need to strap it up, wrap it up, or get a vasectomy. When I was 24, I decided against using hormonal birth control or getting an abortion unless absolutely medically necessary. At that time, I was dating and having sex with a man for about six months. We always used condoms, but that did not completely eliminate the possibility that I could become pregnant if we slipped up. So, I figured I was obligated to tell him about the choices I'd made. “If...

CNN) -- The partner of Ebola patient Thomas Duncan is quarantined in her Dallas apartment where Duncan became sick with the virus after his trip to Liberia, the woman told CNN's Anderson Cooper. The woman, who asked to be identified only by her first name, Louise, is quarantined with one of her children under 13 and two nephews in their 20s because they were in apartment when Duncan became ill, Cooper said Thursday. Duncan, a 42-year-old Liberian citizen, is in serious condition in a Dallas hospital, a spokeswoman said Thursday. But Louise remains in her apartment, and she's worried, not...

MOBILE, Alabama – One minute the son of a prominent Alabama judge was rolling a marijuana cigar on his couch; the next he was shotgunning the mother of his infant child to death, a detective testified on Wednesday. With a packed courtroom listening intently, Prichard Police Cpl. Robert Martin chronicled an eye-witness account of how Richardson Johnson Kennedy, 22, allegedly killed Tylandria Rivers over prescription pain medicine. According to Martin, the only other person at the Jarrett Road home near Prichard Municipal Park on July 6 told police the defendant was "rolling a blunt" in the living room of the...

It seems somewhat unfathomable given the circumstances surrounding Obama’s own parentage and birth (his own autobiography described the circumstances surrounding his parents’ marital relationship as “murky”) that Obama is such an ardent supporter of unrestricted abortion upon demand. Given the fact that his parents were a white woman in her late teens, not yet an adult by the standards of the era, and a black foreign exchange student with a personal history of alcoholism and bigamy, had abortion been legal in 1961, it seems likely that Stanley Ann Dunham would have counseled by some people to terminate her pregnancy. According...

Tina Fey is an angry woman and it shows, unfortunately, in her acting in the film “Baby Mama”, reviewed in this Blog post. The movie has its funny moments but it’s no great paean to thought and morals, make no mistake. It’s definitely a chick flick, let us not mislead. The biggest surprise is the role played by Steve Martin! ==================== Other Blog posts this week: There were a few surprises in the bottom three on American's Idol Birthday night-4/7/09.

“American Idol”: Who’s Your (Baby)Daddy? April 6, 2005 By Debbie Schlussel Being an unwed teen mother is “a badge of honor,” right? That was the scheduled message of this week’s “American Idol,” courtesy of Fantasia Barrino.
