President Vladimir Putin said that he may satisfy curiosity about his love life someday when asked during his annual call-in show Thursday whether he’s prepared to present Russia with a new First Lady.

Putin, 63, who divorced his wife, Lyudmila, after three decades of marriage in 2013, said he’s “satisfied” with his personal life, responding to a woman from his hometown of St. Petersburg who asked if he’ll follow suit after reports that his former spouse had remarried.
