Putin has another grandson. The father is probably Zelensky

The independent Russian "Agency" writes on Thursday about the birth of Adrian, the second child of Katerina Tikhonova, the youngest daughter of Vladimir Putin.

The website claims that the boy was born on August 15, 2025 in Moscow. The alleged father of the child is ballet master Igor Zelensky, who is in a relationship with the daughter of the Russian president. However, the boy's name is: Adrian Igorevich Tikhonov.

"Agencja" writes that the first document regarding the child's birth was issued on the same day by the Central Clinical Hospital, commonly known as the "Kremlin clinic". The birth certificate was issued by the Chertanovo registry office in Moscow only on July 10, 2026 - almost a year after the birth.

It is not known what caused this delay. The "agency" suggests that this may have been related to the family's desire to hide the child's birth or complications resulting from the parents' different surnames (Tikhonov and Zelensky).

Putin cares about the privacy of his family members

Katerina Tikhonova, the youngest daughter of Vladimir Putin, has been the wife of Russian businessman and oligarch Kirill Shamalov since 2013. Five years later, the couple divorced.

Tikhonova then became involved with Igor Zelensky, then artistic director of the Bavarian State Ballet in Munich. Journalists discovered that in 2017 they had a daughter, whom they named Elsa.

The President of Russia cares about the privacy of his family members, especially the sons he had during his relationship with former gymnast Alina Kabaeva.
