Mr Walker, the girl’s step-dad, and her mom Cherie Walker, 33, were arrested last week and initially charged with one count of felony child neglect following the baby’s birth on August 16.
The parents claimed they didn’t know the girl, who hadn’t been to a doctor in a year, was pregnant.
On Monday, their charges changed after a DNA test revealed the step-dad was a 99.9 per cent DNA match for the baby’s dad, The Muskogee County District Attorney’s Office told NBC News.
Mrs Walker was charged with enabling child sexual abuse, while her husband was charged with sexually abusing the girl.
In a statement, Muskogee County Assistant District Attorney Janet Hutson said: “This is one of the most if not the most serious child sexual abuse and neglect cases I have ever prosecuted.
“This child is traumatised. She’s been through a horrific ordeal. I mean, not only has somebody gotten her pregnant, but she gave birth at home without medical assistance, and this will be her life for the rest of her life.”
She added: “Each of the charges against both defendants are punishable by up to life.”
According to court documents, the couple were also charged with six counts of felony child neglect, including failing to supply proper medical care and supervision to the child when she was in labour.
The other charges relate to the treatment and care of their five children – aged, two, four, six, and nine – who were found to be “living in deplorable” conditions.
Cheryl Adkins, who lives next door, claimed the kids had “no running water” for the last two to three years.
Referring to the child’s pregnancy, she told 2News: “This is getting to me. They robbed her of her childhood.”
The children were pulled from their home on Tuesday where they were found with “no clothes on” and “living in dog feces”, court records said.
The kids’ grandmother, known only as Michelle A, claimed the conditions were down to the number of animals living in the family home, adding that the couple “try to keep it clean”.
When asked about the parents’ treatment of their children, she insisted they “love those children”.
She added: “They’ve made my daughter and my son-in-law a monster.”
And pictures of Ivan in a public gymnastics performance have been revealed by anti-Kremlin Telegram channel VChK-OGPU, which in April published the first photos of a child they called “the loneliest boy in Russia”.
The channel wrote: “Ivan is in a team of boy-gymnasts with a separate number within a group performance, and the cameraman’s attention is focused on his team.
“He took part in a large [performance] called ‘Lezginka’ at a festival organised by his mother.”
Unbelievable footage shows him performing as part of the team at the ALINA 2023 event.
His mum Alina Kabaeva – a highly decorated rhythmic gymnast – runs an elite gymnastics academy and is behind training sessions in Valdai.
The channel added: “From the numerous photos […] of the sports team for which Ivan competes, you can see that one of its members is not an ordinary boy.
“During performances, training, and other events that take place indoors, there are eight people in the team.
“Alina Kabaeva is often present in the photo of the eight, she is behind one of the boys.”
The channel said Ivan doesn’t appear to have taken part in “mass events” since 2023, but he still features in his team’s pictures.
Swiss-born Ivan – who resembles mad Vlad in his Soviet childhood – has a younger brother Vladimir junior, now five, who is yet to be pictured.
Ivan, just like his mum, appears to be accomplished as a young gymnast, and competed in the same festival where fellow contestants were from countries like China, Cuba, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Belarus.
A message posted by his club stated their gymnasts showed an “excellent level of training and the ability to work in a team”.
It added: “Hours of training and rehearsals were not in vain! We are proud!!”
Putin has never confirmed the young family he has with Kabaeva – who is three decades younger than him.
However, in a random moment last year, he confessed to watching Russian fairytale movies with “[his] little ones”.
Putin told reporters: “Our historic fairytales and epic tales are being revived.
“I myself sometimes watch these with pleasure with my little ones.”

A flicker of a smile appeared on the tyrant’s face as he mentioned them.
Despite Putin and the Kremlin vehemently denying a relationship between him and glamorous Kabaeva, independent Russian journalists have established they have two sons together.
Until now, the children have never been seen and live out of sight behind his high-security palace walls.
Putin also has another secret daughter Ekaterina Krivonogikh, 22 – aka Luiza Rozova – born to his former mistress, cleaner-turned-multimillionaire Svetlana Krivonogikh, 50.
She holds shares in a top bank and owns a prominent St Petersburg strip club.
Luiza is known to have lived in the West – in Paris – during the war in Ukraine.
Putin is highly secretive about his private life.
“I do not permit interference. It must be respected,” divorced Putin barked in one interview.
He deplored “those who with their snotty noses and erotic fantasies prowl into others’ lives”.
Kabaeva in 2004 posed almost nude – except for furs – for Maxim magazine in Russia and was described as “full of sex” by a photographer.
Earlier – after being temporarily banned in a doping scandal in 2001 – she was photographed naked but for strategically-placed lilacs as part of a Russian project “Twelve Months” by Ekaterina Rozhdestvenskaya.
Later, she appeared on a Russian show called One Hundred Questions for Adults when she was questioned about her private life by an audience of children.
In one clip, was asked by a young boy if she had met her “ideal man” to which she replied giggling: “I have.”
She was then asked who the mystery man in her life was but would only reveal “he’s a very good man, a great man,” adding: “I love him very much”.
Last year Dossier Centre investigative news outlet confirmed the longstanding speculation that Kabaeva had two sons with Putin.
Astonishingly, the boys secretly have had British and New Zealand citizens as governesses, but now due to Putin’s war, the Russian ruler recruits South African citizens to teach English to his heirs.
The children live under the permanent guard of FSO [Federal Protective Service] officers.
“The brothers have little contact with their peers and see little of their parents, but they appreciate the rare moments they manage to spend with their father,” said Dossier Centre.
They don’t attend schools and are taught in Putin’s palaces like the royal children of the last Russian tsar.
Putin’s secret lover
PUTIN and his alleged gymnast lover were first linked 15 years ago after a report in a Moscow newspaper run by media tycoon and former KGB spy Alexander Lebedev.
The despot was still married to his first wife at the time, Lyudmila Putina, whom he later divorced in 2014.
Kabaeva, who is 31 years younger than Putin, shot to fame as “Russia’s most flexible woman” and went on to become one of Russia’s most decorated gymnasts in history.
She was wearing the ring again during a rare TV interview, where she failed to shed any new light on her alleged relationship with the Kremlin leader, whose name wasn’t mentioned.
In February 2017, Kabaeva made another public appearance, apparently showing off the ring at a gymnastics tournament in Moscow.
THE DAD of the “ghost children” who were found living in the woods and unable to speak has insisted he turned their home into a “bunker to protect them”.
