Did Putin buy a luxury flat for a beauty queen 40 YEARS his junior? Russian president is linked to 23-year-old 'Miss April' (but what will Wendi Deng say?)

Beauty queen Alisa Kharcheva, 23, first came to Russian president Vladimir Putin's attention when she appeared in a sexy calendar to celebrate his 58th birthday when she featured in a low cut top showing her ample cleavage as 'Miss April'. 

Two years on she bought a 'Pussy for Putin' (inset) to mark another birthday and gushed in a blog post what a wonderful president he is. 

Now she is living the high life in an apartment inside a gated complex in one of Moscow's most exclusive districts, a flat that is linked one of Putin's trusted associates.
