However, there were many who reposted the pictures that first went viral two years back of the US model Coco Austin, wife of rapper Ice T.
So the photo in the top right isn't Kolinda Grabar Kitarović. This extremely important news needs pointed out asap! 🤣 I've made up for this error from yesterday with a new pic which IS her. Thanks to @Britpopmemories for pointing this out - an expert in the bikini field! #CRO pic.twitter.com/pnkQ0hwQXV

These trending images allegedly of #CroatianPresident Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović are NOT HER. @FRANCE24 have debunked the viral bikini shots and show that all these images are in fact of US model #CocoAustin NOT the Croatian leader: https://t.co/enJ71F28IQ #FakeNews pic.twitter.com/zGkWUf0iPi

During the final football match that happened in Russia, Kitarovic stood clad in a red-and-white shirt of Croatia football team. She stood soaked in heavy rain while Putin was given an umbrella.
One of the social media users wrote on her picture, "Best scene at the World Cup. Pouring Rain, no umbrella and Kolinda Grabar Kitarovic hug every single player from Croatia and France, even if Croatia has just lost. That's purely emotional and so warmly. No politics, only sport! Congrats to both teams."
Another user wrote, "A heartbroken Croatia President looks graceful in defeat hugging every player."
