Russian leader Vladimir Putin 's ex-wife was so confused by his marriage proposal back in the 80s she thought their relationship was doomed and they were actually breaking up.
Lyudmila Shkrebneva and Putin ended up being married for more than 40 years - welcoming two daughters and eventually grandchildren.
But speaking about how they met years before Lyudmila admitted she didn't think much of the young Putin, who turned up to a double date "poorly dressed".
