As the saying goes, there’s no fool like an old fool. That’s certainly the case with 60-year-old Rolling Stones guitarist Ron Wood, who attended the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremony this weekend with his 20-year-old girlfriend, Ekaterina Ivanova. Ekaterina and Ron started their relationship while Ron was still married to his wife of 23 years, Jo, and the guitarist was in the throes of a weeks-long drinking bender. Ekaterina was a cocktail waitress at the bar in Ireland where Ron was sousing it up for days on end. While his wife, Jo, thought he was in rehab for alcohol abuse, Ron was hooking up with then-19-year-old Ekaterina. Since leaving his wife for the girl, he has been off the wagon in a major way. Perhaps that’s why he thought it was in good taste to take Ekaterina as his date to the Hall of Fame ceremony.

Rolling Stone Ron Wood attended Saturday’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremonies with his new girlfriend Ekaterina Ivanova, 20.

Wood and the former waitress have been together since last summer, as he divorces his wife of 23 years Jo, but this weekend was their first outing at a public event.

The Woods have two children, 30-year-old Leah and 25-year-old Tyrone.

What is there to say about a man who dates a woman younger than his own kids? Ekaterina has been alive for less time than Ron Wood was married to his long-suffering wife. Multiple sources say Jo managed Ron’s business finances for years, so she knows exactly what he’s worth. Rumor has it that Jo Wood is going for the legal jugular in the divorce case after being so publicly humiliated by her husband. And according to reports, Ekaterina sure likes it when grandpa Ron buys her expensive gifts- including a guitar played by Jimi Hendrix worth more than £13,000. Looks like Ronnie is going to get bankrupted coming and going – I sure hope this new young thing is worth it!
