Putin
and Abramovich are said to be friends, with the Chelsea Football Club
owner giving the president his own $35 million yacht in January.
Deng is also very close friends with Abramovich's partner Dasha Zhukova
In 2014, a year after his divorce, Putin was rumored to have had an affair with Olympic gymnast Alina Kabayeva.
There were also claims he fathered a child with her, but the Kremlin strongly denied both accusations.
The publication claims rumors have
been circulating around the world after the pair both got recent
divorces. Putin (pictured on Tuesday) split from Lyudmila after 30 years
of marriage in 2013
The claims first circulated in 2008, but Putin was rarely questioned as his sex life was seen as a taboo.
Deng
is currently enjoying a Caribbean getaway with her two daughters just
weeks after her ex-husband Murdoch married his new wife Jerry Hall.
Photos
showed her shopping for toiletries on the Caribbean island before
ushering a handful of children onto a small boat that took them out to
Abramovich's $400million mega-yacht Eclipse - which once held the record
for largest privately owned yacht.
The she wore a pink floral-print dress with a drop waist, paired with casual black-and-white slip-on sandals.
Murdoch and Deng married in 1999 and have two children together, daughters Grace and Chloe.

It
was Murdoch who filed for divorce in 2013, citing irreconcilable
differences. Reports at the time stated that Murdoch had grown
suspicious of his wife's close relationship with former British Prime
Minister Tony Blair, the godfather to one of their daughters.
Blair has consistently denied that there was anything inappropriate about their relationship.
Earlier this month, Deng turned heads at Paris Fashion Week where she showed up on the arm of a much-younger escort.
Deng
was smiling ear-to-ear as she attended the Giambatista Valli show with
her dapper date, 30-year-old violinist Charlie Siem, who is also the
UK's youngest professor.
During
her marriage to Mr Murdoch, Chinese-born Miss Deng, who met the
billionaire while working as an intern, became known for her fierce
loyalty to her husband.
When
the media tycoon was giving evidence in Parliament over the hacking
scandal she protected her husband from a custard pie thrown from the
audience.
Deng and mogul Rubert Murdoch
(pictured in 2013) divorced in 2014, with the billionaire citing
irreconciable differences. They married in 1999 and have two children
together
But
their marriage unravelled and ended in 2013 - shortly after emails from
Miss Deng were uncovered that suggested a close relationship with Mr
Blair - which were shown to Mr Murdoch by one of his sons.
In
one memo to herself, Miss Deng had written: ‘Oh s***, oh s***. Whatever
why I’m so so missing Tony. Because he is so charming and his clothes
are so good.
‘He
has such a good body and he had his really, really good legs Butt [sic]
. . . and he is slim tall and good skin. Pierce blue eyes which I love.
Love his eyes. Also I love his power on the stage . . . and what else
what else what else . . .’
Other messages suggested that Mr Blair had met Miss Deng in New York, London and Beijing.
Hours
after the divorce was announced, Mr Blair telephoned Mr Murdoch,
insisting he was innocent. But, after a brief conversation, the tycoon
refused to take any more of his calls.
Putin split from Lyudmila - the mother
of his two children - after 30 years of marriage in 2013. His sex life
has since been a taboo in Russian media
Blair
nevertheless spoke regularly with Miss Deng on the phone. With the
support of Mr Blair’s wife Cherie, both he and Miss Deng publicly denied
there had ever been an affair.
But
while Miss Deng is believed to be single, her ex-husband has found love
again and married for the fourth time over the weekend.
Miss
Hall and Mr Murdoch were bound to turn out to be an eclectic gathering
with a colourful bunch of guests reflecting their past loves and lives.
As
well as his daughters with Miss Deng, his other children are Prudence,
53, James, 43, Lachlan, 44, and Elisabeth, 47. Miss Hall’s other
children are James, 30, and Gabriel, 18, both of whose father is Sir
Mick.
The rumors of Deng have come to life two weeks after Murdoch got married to Mick Jagger's ex-wife Jerry Hall in London
In January, Putin's ex-wife Lyudmila married a man 21 years her junior, according to reports in Moscow.
The
58-year-old former Russian first lady appears on official records to
have changed her name as if she is now the spouse of a known friend,
dashing businessman Arthur Ocheretny, 37.
It
is in stark contrast to rumours that the former Aeroflot stewardess had
found sanctuary by shutting herself away in an Orthodox Church
nunnery.
There is no confirmation of the union as marriage certifcates are not public in Russia.
