RUSSIA'S glamorous protest leader, Ksenia Sobchak, has surprised Russians by secretly marrying a popular actor who shares her anti-Putin views, just months after declaring her love for a radical protest leader in Hello! magazine.
Sobchak held a surprise party at which she appeared in a white dress and veil with her new husband - actor Maxim Vitorgan, 40, who has starred in a string of popular comedies, the Komsomolskaya Pravda tabloid revealed at the weekend.
She announced her marriage publicly in characteristic style - on Twitter. "Thank you everyone for the good wishes!" she wrote, posting a photograph of the couple's rings.
Sobchak, 31, became a household name in Russia after first entering the limelight as a blonde party girl with close ties to Vladimir Putin, the protege of her late father Anatoly Sobchak.
She then hosted a popular reality show, before becoming the most prominent celebrity to last year join the mass protest movement and turning against Putin over fraud-tainted elections.
She would drop in at sit-ins - sometimes in full studio make-up - speak at rallies and was detained by police several times.
Her romance with radical protest leader Ilya Yashin - a member of the Solidarity movement led by chess champion Garry Kasparov - began after she invited him onto her MTV Russia show.
To many they seemed an incongruous couple: Sobchak was a millionaire television host who had launched her own perfume, while Yashin was a dapper but ascetic revolutionary who disapproved of her handbag collection.
Their romance was made public last June when investigators made an early-morning raid of her apartment allegedly over her participation in protests, and found Yashin there, which they duly published in their official report.
Hello! magazine published a photo-shoot of the couple in Marrakesh in November. Sobchak said she fell for Yashin when he gallantly let her take the stage before him at a freezing cold rally.
But Yashin appeared somewhat uncomfortable with his new celebrity profile and did not participate in the Hello! interview. The couple did not publicly announce a separation.
Vitorgan is an actor at a popular Moscow theatre and has starred in mildly satirical comedy films including one called Election Day about rough-and-ready spin doctoring methods of the 1990s. He has spoken during at least one anti-Putin protest in Moscow.
