Has Rolling Stone rocker, Ronnie Wood, left his wife of 23-years to play around with some 18-years old Russian cocktail waitress?

His wife is saying, no - but the teen is saying, yes.

Ron Wood met Ekaterina Ivanova a few months back, after the premiere of Martin Scorsese’s documentary on the band, Shine a Light.

Now Ekaterina is telling people via Facebook that Ronnie left his wife for her and that they are enjoying a relationship together.

Rumor has it that the new couple bolted out of town and headed to Wood’s home in Ireland.

Despite his leaving, Wood’s wife, Jo, 53, is refusing to believe that her husband is romantically involved with the teen. She told members of the press that her husband and Ekaterina went on a painting trip and that, “They’re not boyfriend and girlfriend - not in that way.”

Apparently she is trying desperately to save her husband who has fallen off the wagon, and hard.

Again.

A source says that the girl is simply a drinking buddy for Ron, who has struggled with sobriety for years.

“Ronnie is not being his normal self. He is an alcoholic and he’s fallen off the wagon. He is drinking two bottles of vodka a day and there is no way he would be behaving like this if he was sober. He went out and found himself a drinking partner. That is what this girl is. He knows that his family wouldn’t tolerate him behaving like this so he has run away to go and drink himself crazy.”

Wood, who admitted he had an alcohol/cocaine addiction eight years ago, has been in and out of rehab an amazing amount of times since.

He originally checked in to The Priory clinic in June 2000, but relapsed within weeks of checking out.
He went back in April 2001 and that too, only lasted weeks of his departure.

Then in March 2004 he headed back to rehab after being found passed out under a restaurant table. And in March 2005, one year later, he screwed up once again after getting sloshed at his wife’s 50th birthday bash.

Rehab again.

But no, it doesn’t end there, he also sought treatment in 2006 after doing the same thing at his 59th birthday party.

That woman must love him. Jo has always let it be known that she’s hated her husband’s drinking problems, but has managed to stay by him for years and years.

It is said that his alcoholism has deeply affected his two children who are now adults.

Stumble it!
