Jo Wood, who was married to Ronnie Wood, and the Rolling Stone guitarist, revealed she had to learn the pieces and show she could handle things alone after breaking up with the actor.
After 24 years of marriage to one of the world’s most renowned guitarists, Jo Wood could be forgiven for wanting to hide away from the world as she struggled to navigate life on her own, following her split with Ronnie Wood.
And while it took time for her to come to terms with the new chapter of her life, Jo, 70, has now revealed that she was determined to prove she could lead a healthy and successful life without the Rolling Stone star.
She stated in a recent interview that she needed to show that she wasn’t a “victim” in light of her recent split. When Jo and Ronnie tied the knot in 1985, their engagement ring came to an end in 2009.
She stated in an interview with The Times, “I learned that I can say to myself, “I’m not a victim, I can still enjoy a good life. I completely let go when I was deeply broken-hearted. I didn’t shave anything, just my legs. I was completely miserable.
Ronnie has now re-married to Sally Humphries and the coupled wed in 2012. The pair have twin daughters together. Jo recently bumped into her ex-husband at a hotel in Barbados with Sally and their children.
However, it appears that everyone involved is as friendly as possible, with Jo even describing the situation as “putting on a comfy pair of old slippers”
Jo Wood has since launched her own organic body care line, Jo Wood Organics, and has since achieved great success since breaking up with Ronnie.
However, she countered by writing her book that Ronnie’s story was “not about Ronnie,” and that the editor at the time wanted more emotion.
Jo instead stated that she has worked hard to forgive the rock star because it “sets you free.”
Leah and Tyrone, Ronnie and Jo have two children, are they? Additionally, the couple had two stepchildren from previous relationships. Jo and Ronnie both had sons named Jesse and Jamie from their first marriages, and Jo is the mother of Jamie and designer Peter Greene.
Despite their public split, Jo said that she could happily call Ronnie if she had to but claims that she could do the same with Keith Richards, as she “didn’t do anything wrong.”
She stated to the Daily Mail, “When you have children and grandchildren, I think it’s important… I like to know that I can say, “The kids have been, you know, even though they’re grown up.” Talk to them, please!
The businesswoman no longer practices a party lifestyle and now resides in her rural home to enjoy a self-sufficient lifestyle. She is even planning to introduce a supplement called Longevity for additional health advantages.
Although Jo’s partying style is still present, her grandchildren still refer to her as the “Gangster Gran.” Jo adheres to the moral compass, which explains why she pleaded guilty to drug use in her youth and admitted it to her grandchildren.
She stated in an interview on Good Housekeeping UK’s podcast, My Life in a Biscuit Tin, that she had been driving with their two grandchildren, Maggie and Kobe, while they were laughing.
They then said, “Gran, have you used any drugs?” I responded, “Of course, but I don’t suggest it.” Because it only caused me to have a lot of sleepless nights, I said.
They will discover that you can’t be dishonest. I tried to warn them that it was a waste of time, but I was in a very special circumstance. Then they said, “We’re going to call you Gangster Gran from now on.”
