Ronnie Wood's fling 'did wife a favour'

Jo WOOD, the wife of Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood, has declared that the Russian waitress who had an affair with her husband did her "a favour".

The former model said in an interview she had put all her energy into keeping the guitarist on the straight and narrow during, but now she had her life back.

The 63-year-old hellraiser musician left his wife after more than 20 years of marriage in July 2008 as he embarked on an affair with Ekaterina Ivanova.
