Putin, 71, and Kabaeva, 40, were said to have split earlier this year.

Kabaeva was in attendance when Putin gave his fifth inauguration address this week, according to Daily Star. He won Russia’s presidential election in March and successfully secured yet another six-year term as the nation’s leader.

“A special military operation is underway, it’s not easy, it’s complicated, but it’s great that the people came to the elections, supported the president, supported his policies, and we, as voters, see that our leader does not rely on foreign countries, but relies on his own people,” Kabaeva said regarding Russia’s war against Ukraine after Putin’s inauguration address.

“This is the key to all our successes and victories,” she added.
