A series of cryptic messages on Telegram have brought Louisa Rozova, the 22-year-old rumored to be Vladimir Putin's secret daughter, back into the spotlight.
She has appeared in public for the first time, indirectly criticizing the Russian president and openly condemning the war in Ukraine.
Rozova – whose stage name is Elizaveta Krivonogik – wrote on her personal Telegram account:
“The man who took millions of lives and destroyed mine.” Although she does not directly mention Putin, her message has been widely interpreted as a personal indictment of him, due to numerous indications over the years linking her to the Russian president. According to reports, she is the fruit of Putin’s relationship with former musician Svetlana Krivonogik.
"It's liberating to be able to show my face to the world"
In another post, the young woman, who lives in Paris and works in the art field, shared a selfie with the caption:
"It's liberating to be able to show my face to the world again. It reminds me of who I am and who ruined my life."
These statements were reported by the German newspaper Bild, which has access to her Telegram channel called “The Art of Louise.”
Louisa, who once regularly posted photos from luxury trips and private parties with DJs, disappeared from social media after the invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Today, she presents a completely different profile – engaged, politically aware and openly against the war.
Born in 2003 in St. Petersburg, Louisa is suspected of being Vladimir Putin's daughter, according to an investigation by the Russian research group Proekt, which in 2020 revealed details of a possible connection between the president and her mother. The investigation also mentions the name "Vladimirovna" on her birth certificate - another strong sign of a connection.
In June 2024, she graduated from the ICART school of cultural management in Paris. She currently works at two art galleries: L Galerie in the Belleville district and Escape Albatros in Montreux, which organize exhibitions focused on anti-war art. Her role includes curating exhibitions and producing audiovisual materials.
Confronting critics: "Am I really responsible?"
Although her commitment to the war is evident, Rozova's presence in these galleries has provoked mixed reactions. The Russian artist in exile, Nastya Rodionova, announced that she is severing all cooperation with the institutions where Louisa works.
In a Facebook post, she wrote: “I believe in the principle of innocence and that children are not responsible for the crimes of their parents. However, in a time of war, it is unacceptable for someone from a family that benefits from the regime to represent the opposite.”
In response, Louisa publicly stated:
"Am I really responsible for the actions of a family that can't even hear me?"
She is said to have started using the name Elizaveta Rudova – perhaps an attempt to distance herself from her familiar surname and past. The name may be inspired by Oleg Rudov, a late close associate of Putin. /Top Channel
