North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un’s wife has not been seen in public since March 28. There is speculation that 27-year-old Ri Sol-ju could be pregnant or that there has been a serious falling out.
As reported by the International Business Times online, there is understandable concern given that Kim had his uncle executed in 2013.
Ri first appeared by Kim’s side in 2012, sparking immediate rumours about her identity. Only later did North Korean state media release her name and confirm that she was, in fact, Kim’s wife, although no date for their wedding was ever provided. South Korean media has claimed that Ri was a former member of the country’s Unhasu orchestra and had performed for Kim in 2010. Other reports claimed that her family was in the country’s political elite, with her mother the head of a gynaecology department at a local hospital. Ri was said to be a science graduate student.
According to the International Business Times, Kim’s appearances with his wife were a break from tradition – neither his father Kim Jong Il nor his grandfather Kim Il-sung were ever pictured with their significant others in public. But Ri made numerous outings with her husband in subsequent years, appearing alongside him 18 times in 2012, 22 times in 2013 and 15 times in 2014, reports the Yonhap News Agency.
