Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood has split from his Brazilian girlfriend Ana Araujo.
Wood whose girlfriend is thirty years his junior has ended the relationship after almost two years
‘I’m taking a sabbatical from her. I’m like Picasso, painting up the ladder after leaving his mistress at the bottom after a row,'' Wood told the Daily Mail.
Last year Wood praised Ana for helping him quit alcohol and drugs after a three-decade battle: Ana’s a good girl. She is [very atttractive]. She is lovely – and very supportive.
Wood divorced his former wife Jo Wood in November 2009.
Meanwhile, Mick Jagger has dismissed claims that The Rolling Stones will be performing at the opening ceremony of the 2012 Olympics in London.
