Ekaterina Ivanova, the 21-year-old waitress who had an 18-month fling with 62-year-old Rolling Stone guitarist Ronnie “Evil Goblin King” Wood is really stretching her fifteen minutes. Last month, the aspiring artist gave a long, rambling interview to Hello! magazine with a weird fashion pictorial spread. She’s also one of the “stars” appearing in the British version of “Celebrity Big Brother,” a hit reality show. I think calling her a celebrity is a bit of a stretch, don’t you? She’s a groupie. Case closed. Now, she’s blabbing to the Daily Mail about how she and Ronnie went on alcohol and cocaine binges within hours of their first meeting. Classy!
Ekaterina Ivanova just can’t seem to keep her mouth shut.
After breaking her silence on her 18-month relationship with ex-Rolling Stone lover Ronnie Wood just weeks after they split, the 21-year-old former waitress has revealed even more about the man she called an ‘evil Goblin King’.
And she now claims that she indulged in a cocaine binge with the guitarist at a London hotel just hours after they met.
Last night she joined 10 other C-listers and actress Stephanie Beacham as one of the contestants of Celebrity Big Brother.
But before she went into the house, which is guaranteed to give her even more publicity, she spoke to The Sun about life with the ageing rock star and alleged he gave her cocaine on the first night they met.
Russian-born Ekaterina, also known as Katia, spoke about meeting Wood when she was waitress at a London bar called Churchill’s in the summer of 2008 – and how the evening turned into an all-nighter.
She said Ronnie, 62, had come into the club with a huge entourage so she went to talk to him but was unaware of who he was.
She said: ‘I sat next to him with a cigarette and dropped some ash on his trousers. He said, “You’ve ashed on my trousers”. I looked him up and down and said, “I don’t give a f**k”. He just went, “I love you”. Basically I was rude, he was kind of sleazy and we kind of bounced off each other.’
Then she claimed that some of them went to the Hempel Hotel in west London where they stayed up all night doing cocaine and drinking.
She added: ‘I don’t know whose coke it was but it just appeared on the table and Ronnie did some and so did I. Maybe four of five lines.
‘I ended up passing out in his bed, but we spent the next two days together. It was very touchy feely but nothing happened between us. I did fancy him. I liked arrogant guys in bands with tight jeans and he was the ultimate guy in a band.’
Not long after they met, in the July that year, Ronnie entered rehab for his drinking but rather than go back to his family, he returned to Ekaterina as soon as he got out.
She said after renting a flat together in north London they fell ‘madly in love’ and spent many months sober, drinking hot chocolate and talking about marriage and kids.
Ekaterina said: ‘We spoke about getting married. If his divorce had come through we might have just got married there and then.
‘And we talked about babies. We’d mess around and say that if we had a boy we’d call him Ivan Ivanova Wood and if we had a girl it could be Holly Wood.’
But she said the relationship soon became doomed after he started drinking again and at his worse would drink a litre bottle of spirits a day, take cocaine and smoke up to 50 cigarettes.
She said: ‘He would never drink in the morning if I was around. But if I went out, I’d come back and find him drunk. I tried reasoning with him, nagging him, taking him to AA meetings.
‘Nothing stopped him for longer than a couple of weeks.’
And she said that she soon stopped Ronnie, who ended up repulsing her with his bad boozy breath.
She said: ‘It started off really exciting. His body is very good for his age and he was very youthful in bed. But towards the end it got into a routine, especially as he was always drunk.
‘He’d try it on with me and his breath smelt of rum, which I hated. Sometimes I’d go through the motions but sometimes I’d just push him off. I’d stopped fancying him.’
Does anyone really want to hear anymore about this vomitrocious relationship? I certainly don’t. She willingly handled old-man-testicles in exchange for coke, booze, trips and a rock and roll lifestyle. Now she’s trying to parlay that into a career. Whatever. Are we supposed to feel sorry for her? It’s not like Ronnie put a gun to her head and forced her to do some blow and down the booze. While I think his abuse of her is deplorable, I will reserve any sympathy – if at all – for Ron’s long suffering wife, Jo. The well-publicized affair with this teenage waitress was the final straw for her, and she seems a lot happier these days, now that Ron is someone else’s problem. If Ekaterina wants to be famous in her own right, good for her. But rehashing her gross fling with a drunk old man can only get her so far.
Ronnie Wood doing Coke????????? SHOCKING!
Please, who cares what they did together? If she is thinking she is ruining Wood’s rep with salacious details of sex, alcohol and drug abuse- HE IS A ROLLING STONE! Thats who they were in the 60’s, 70’s,80’s and 90’s, and that is who they will be INTO their 60’s,70’s,80’s and 90’s!
Still think he is disgusting for beating on her though. Mix drugs, alcohol and a bad idea of a relationship, and abuse will be a factor.
He is very sad looking– pitiful, really. He doesn’t realize he isn’t young any longer.
Well, what do you expect rock stars to do? Go to church and live piously? ‘eyeroll’
Ronnie’s in a wig, right? That looks like way too much hair for someone his age….without it, he kinda looks like John Geilgud (before death, of course)
“Thats who they were in the 60’s, 70’s,80’s and 90’s, and that is who they will be INTO their 60’s,70’s,80’s and 90’s!”
lol, perfectly stated, Firestarter!
I also wondered about the hair. Wonder what he looks like without the wig. Then again, maybe not….
I read an interview about 20 years ago with the “WAGS” of the Stones and Jo Wood was asked how she kept the marriage on solid ground, given the groupies and wild image the Stones had. She said she did everything for Ron – bought all his clothes, laid them out in the morning, almost acted like his personal concierge. She went everywhere with him, handled all the finances, booked publicity, kept the leeches and groupies and druggies away, etc. etc. It seems without her as a stabilizing influence in his life, he’s just gone adrift in a sea of substance abuse and cheap slags who are only after the booze, blow, monied lifestyle and notoriety. He’s pathetic.
He looks pretty good considering the “hard” lifestyle he has. Decent skin for being an alcoholic and a chain smoker.
@hatsumomo,,,,,, AGREED
And I’m not believing there was abuse just because she called the cops and said as much
He makes me sick! EWWWW, GROSSS! Very ugly man.
Ronnie Wood has always come across as a disgusting old man, even when he was younger! Now Sean Connery on the other hand has always been sexy and he still has it after all these years!
Vomitrocious is an awesome word.
I don’t think I’ll ever sleep well again, after seeing this picture of Ronnie Wood. I feel sick. It must be even more nauseating to see him in person. And naked. I just puked in my mouth a little. 🙁
Yes, I’m addicted to emoticons. Some do coke, others smoke pot, I’m into emoticons. LMAO.
“Ekaterina Ivanova talks about cocaine, booze and sex with Ronnie Wood”.
Didn’t read further, instead I focused on choking back a “vurp” after seeing that headline.
what more need be said, really? ((vurps))
She obviously doe not want to wait on tables anymore and as long as someone will pay her to talk, she’ll talk!
Perhaps at some point, Ron Wood may sober up and go home to his wife, Jo. It won’t take long for him to realize what a good woman he lost.
@Sincerity- Why would Jo want the old bastard back? She seems, from the pieces I have read about her, perfectly happy in her new life. Why would the woman want to chance that he would treat her in that piggish manner again?
I say she is well rid of him and his obvious problems.
Shut up whore. This stuff didn’t seem to bother you when you were schtupping his married brains out. She deserves to get the shit kicked out of her–by Jo Wood.
Ronnie Wood deserves this slag.
his tongue is an unappealing color.
Wow…there is something REALLY depressing about picturing 62 year old men doing cocaine with a bunch of younger groupies. He must be sad to get old.
How he’s avoided being papped without his wig boggles the mind. Even Beyonce’s been caught without her famous extensions. I am fascinated by it, I can’t decide if it’s a toupee or a full blown wig.
Um, let’s see. Aging rock star picks up slutty 21 y.o. blond and they do coke and drink too much. Scandalous!!
What the hell is the story? What year is this. This story is over 50 years old, why aren’t we bored to tears?
I say wig.
