VLADIMIR Putin has two secret sons who live like princes and are being groomed to succeed him, Russian sources revealed yesterday.
Ivan Putin, nine, and five-year-old Vladimir Jnr – from the tyrant’s relationship with glamorous gymnast partner Alina Kabaeva – are both being taught English.

The pampered boys were secretly taught English by British and New Zealand governesses, who were sacked when he launched his bloodbath in Ukraine.
And the pair are now being schooled in the language of the 71-year-old despot’s enemies – as well as German – by South African teachers.
Putin has three daughters from his first marriage – Maria, 39, Katerina, 37 and Luiza, 21.
And independent Russian sources claimed yesterday to have confirmed he has two sons – and cried out: “Hurray! Finally a boy!” when Ivan was born.
The investigative media outlet, Dossier Centre said: “The sons live in isolated residences, travelling on yachts and business jets.
“They are guarded by FSO [Federal Protective Service] officers, with nannies, governesses and professional trainers by their side around the clock.
“The brothers have little contact with their peers and see little of their parents, but they appreciate the rare moments they manage to spend with their father.”
They do not attend schools and are taught in Putin’s palaces – like the royal children of Russian tsars.
The revelations are likely to infuriate Putin who has kept his boys hidden and even refuses to acknowledge his relationship with Olympic gold-medal-winning Kabaeva, 41.
But they have been a couple since 2008, and perhaps earlier.
Dossier Centre says it has pictures of Ivan but has opted not to publish them for “ethical reasons”,
But it went on to detail the astonishingly lavish lifestyle of Putin’s privileged princelings.
Ivan himself is reported to have told his tutors of the dictator’s elated reaction when he was born in an exclusive private clinic in Switzerland.
The Putin prince‘s birth has not been formally registered and their birth dates are known only by their immediate family.
Their main residence is believed to be a Putin palace at Valdai, amid forests and lakes north of Moscow, according to a Putin household source.
The report said: “They don’t fly on regular flights, they have separate planes.
“They don’t attend kindergartens or schools, they are taught by hired governesses.
“They live in residences guarded by the FSO, sail on yachts and ride armoured trains.”
“Dozens of people are involved in the daily life of the president’s family: drivers, security guards, teachers, cooks, pilots, trainers, waiters, assistants and many others.”
