A 'violent' ex-boyfriend has allegedly confessed to the murder of his Instagram blogger lover because she insulted his performance in bed.
Maxim Gareyev, 33, is reported to have admitted stabbing Ekaterina Karaglanova, 24, "at least five times in the neck and chest" before stuffing her body in a suitcase.
She was found with her throat slit in Moscow, Russia.
Yesterday Gareyev admitted the murder and now faces life in jail, Russian police say.
It is alleged Miss Karaglanova, a qualified doctor, had been having an affair with a 52-year-man she met on Instagram , on which she had more than 80,000 followers.
Gareyev was quoted in local media as saying: "She repeatedly insulted me, she was completely humiliating about my sexual abilities and dismissive of my financial resources.
"I was at my wits end."
"She told me that I was ugly and that even plastic [surgery] would not help me.
"I could not stand it."
Gareyev fled after the killing but police tracked him down in a town outside Moscow.
Police found the victim's body in the suitcase soon afterwards, along with lace garters.
Miss Karaglanova once took part in a beauty contest organised by the Russian version of Maxim magazine.
Although she was trained as a dermatologist and sexual health practitioner, it is understood she found it more lucrative to work as a model and Instagram influencer.
Many of her followers online compared her 'aura' to that of Audrey Hepburn.
In a post from March, she wrote about her plans for redecorating her flat, trips abroad and "another important activity I'm thinking about, which I'm not going to talk about for now".
A spokeswoman for Russia's interior ministry, Irina Volk, said police had begun questioning Mr Gareyev earlier this week.
Her posts also included various European locations as she travelled throughout the continent.
