Russian beauty Alena Shishkova, 24, is said to be seeing Nikita Mazepin, a teenaged Formula 3 racer
A top international model is reportedly dating the fresh-faced 17-year-old son of a tycoon.
Russian beauty Alena Shishkova, 24, is said to be seeing Nikita Mazepin, the son of Dmitry Mazepin, 48, the head of Uralchem Integrated Chemicals who is worth £1.1 billion.
And while Mazepin junior looks like a schoolboy, he is actually a Formula 3 racing driver and a reserve driver for Force India's Formula One team.
The couple have frequently been seen out together in recent months and seem unconcerned by the difference in their ages.
Local media have speculated that the two are dating although the model and the teenager have not yet confirmed that they are an item.
