Outgoing Russian President Vladimir Putin has denied rumours that he secretly divorced his wife Lyudmila and plans to marry Alina Kabayeva, a 24-year-old Russian Olympic gold medallist in rhythmic gymnastics.
"In what you said, there is not one word of truth," Putin answered when asked about the reports, BBC informed.
"I have always reacted negatively to those who with their snotty noses and erotic fantasies prowl into others' lives," Putin added.
Ms Kabayeva's office told media that she has no comment on the claims.
