Ekaterina Mizulina is eyed as Putin’s latest love interest

Russian President Vladimir Putin has been romantically tied to a blond “Barbie type” censorship pusher 32 years his junior, according to new reports.

Ekaterina “Katya” Mizulina, 39, a UK-educated art historian who heads Russia’s pro-Kremlin Safe Internet League, has emerged as the 71-year-old Putin’s sexy “morality guardian.”

“Katya Mizulina is completely to Putin’s taste,” Russian human rights campaigner Olga Romanova told Ukraine’s Channel 24. “This Barbie [expletive] type has always suited him very well.”

Romanova likened Mizulina to an earlier rumored Putin lover — Svetlana Krivonogikh, a strip-club owner and multimillionaire in St. Petersburg who is the alleged mother of the president’s love child, Luiza, 20.

“[Putin is] 71 years old, let’s not be ageist,” Romanova said sarcastically. “In general, the man is in full bloom, why not?”

Mizulina, the daughter of a hardline female anti-Ukraine Russian lawmaker, has been working to silence all criticism of Putin online, especially concerning the war in Ukraine, under the guise of protecting children.

Putin, who divorced his wife of 30 years, Lyudmila, in 2014, has long been rumored to be in a relationship with 40-year-old former Olympic gymnast Alina Kabaeva — and the pair are believed to share two or three children.

But Ukrainian media outlets and independent Russian Telegram channels have been circulating claims that he has found a “new flame for companionship” in Mizulina, the daughter of member of parliament Elena Mizulina, 69.

The warmongering Russian leader and the online censorship campaigner were said to “have grown close recently,” reported the Russian Telegram site Kremlevskaya Tabakerka.  

The site stressed that its sources “were extremely careful in talking about it, because no one can offer a 100% confirmation.”

Mizulina graduated from the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London in 2004 with degrees in art history and Indonesian language.

She worked as a translator for official Russian delegations visiting China before joining the Safe Internet League in 2017.

Safe Internet, said to be financially backed by ultranationalist “Christian billionaire” Konstantin Malofeev, has been at the forefront of Russia’s censorship efforts, reported the independent Russian newspaper Novaya Gazeta.

As the head of internet, Mizulina has advocated for web censorship, fines and sanctions against the news media and social networks.

Mizulina was quoted as saying in a speech in May 2022, “First, we will clean Ukraine from the Nazis … and then we will get to Google and Wikipedia.”

At a meeting with Russian students earlier this month, Mizulina reportedly demanded — and received — an apology from a student who had questioned the need for compulsory military service.

Mizulina was said to have threatened the student with Putin’s draconian laws on discrediting the Russian army.
