Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood's 'Russian Girlfriend Living In Fantasy Land'

Russian waitress Ekaterina Ivanova, who claims to be the girlfriend of Rolling Stones' Ronnie Wood, has been accused of living in a “fantasy world” by friends of the guitarist's wife.

Twenty-year-old Ivanova claimed yesterday (August 17th) that she would be setting up home with Wood when his current spell in rehab ends - which could be as early as this week.

But, speaking to today's Sun newspaper, an unnamed friend of the guitarist's wife, Jo, rubbished the waitresses' claims, calling them “ridiculous”.

“Ronnie is still trying to save his marriage and Jo is desperate to see him nursed back to health,” they said.

“For her this isn’t some schoolground contest with another woman. Ekaterina will never have what Jo and Ronnie have together.

“It’s about making sure the man she loves gets well again. That is her priority. This silly child is trying to play grown-ups.”

Last week, Ivanova was spotted in London wearing a Rolling Stones jacket. She also claimed in yesterday's News of the World that Wood had painted a portrait for her birthday.

Wood was admitted to rehab last month in order to battle his problems with drink.
