Ronnie Wood's waitress girlfriend: I am not some Russian slut

Ekaterina Ivanova insists she loves the Rolling Stones star

Ekaterina Ivanova says she loves Ronnie Wood, despite their 41-year age gap

The Russian waitress Ronnie Wood left his wife Jo for has hit out at the way she has been represented in the media.

The Rolling Stones star walked out on his 23-year marriage and took Ekaterina Ivanova for a 2-week trip to his £3m retreat in Co Kildare, Ireland.

But the youngster, 20, is upset that some papers have hinted she's worked as an escort.

‘I am not some Russian slut,’ she says. ‘They're calling me a Russian slut but if that's the case I'd be with a rich businessman, not Ronnie.

'I'm not a prostitute and I've never worked in an escort bar. We're completely in love.’

Ronnie, 61, is currently being treated for alcohol abuse at a rehab centre in Surrey.

Over the weekend he was pictured looking relaxed and wearing his wedding ring.
