Russian waitress claims Rolling Stones star has chosen her over wife Jo Wood
Monday, 18 August 2008
Ekaterina Ivanova claims that Ronnie Wood plans to move in with her when he leaves rehab.
The Russian waitress, who ran away with the Rolling Stones star to Ireland in June, is convinced he’s going to leave wife Jo for good.
She insists the veteran rocker, 61, will quit his treatment programme to be with her.
‘Ronnie’s moving on,’ she says. ‘It’s a fresh start. He’s made the decision. He loves me and he’s leaving.’
And Eka, who has been snapped visiting Ronnie at the Life Works clinic in Woking, Surrey, says she has no regrets over their affair.
‘Ronnie loves me – it’s not about money,’ she tells the News Of The World. ‘It’s sad we’ve caused people pain. It’s hurt his family and my family too, but we’ve just fallen in love.
'I never pursued him. Everyone said he was only in love with me because of the drinking. But there’s a very strong connection between us.’
But pals close to 53-year-old Jo – his wife of 23 years – say Ronnie is not giving up on their marriage.
‘Ronnie will be in rehab for the long haul,’ a source tells the Daily Star. ‘He’s in no position to be making life decisions and is only concerned with getting well. This girl is essentially a drinking buddy.’
Another friend tells The Sun: ‘Ekaterina is living in a fantasy world. To say she has won Ronnie is ridiculous, particularly as there isn’t a competition.
'Ronnie is still trying to save his marriage and Jo is desperate to see him nursed back to health.’
