http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1232954/Ronnie-Wood-arrested-bailed...Ronnie Wood has been arrested after an alleged assault on his 21-year-old girlfriend Ekaterina Ivanova.
The Rolling Stones guitarist, 62, who has only just divorced his wife Jo, was released on bail following the incident.
The couple, who are renting a £4,000-a-week lavish ‘castle’ called Ruxley Towers, in Claygate in Esher, Surrey, are believed to have had an altercation near their new home on Wednesday night.

They moved into the property in September and Wood – known for his past drink battles – rented the four-bedroom white folly from a member of the Lacoste family, who own the French sportswear label.
Wood was questioned by police over claims he had assaulted his young Russian lover after being arrested in the high street of Claygate by officers called to reports of an assault.
It is understood that his on-off girlfriend Ekaterina claimed he attacked her during a row.
A Surrey Police spokesman said Wood was released on bail until a date next month pending further inquiries.
A spokesman said: 'We can confirm that a 62-year-old man from Esher was arrested last night on suspicion of assault in connection with a domestic incident in Claygate High Street.
'He has this afternoon been released on bail until a date in January pending further inquiries.'

Wood has taken a year-long lease on the quirky Surrey home, which features an octagonal tower complete with a turret and gargoyles.
It has four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a library.
The arrest is the latest chapter in a tumultuous relationship between the ageing rocker and the former cocktail waitress.
Police were called to the couple's £5 million home in September after one row in which it was claimed she threatened to kill herself.
Wood left his wife, Jo, for Miss Ivanova in 2008. The couple had been married for 23 years and their divorce will be finalised within weeks.
Mrs Wood, 54, who took part in Strictly Come Dancing this year, was married to the musician for 24 years.
Last week the lapdancing bar where Wood met Miss Ivanova was closed after a raid by vice squad officers.
Detectives said The Capricorn Club in Goodge Street, Soho, was a £1 million-a-year sex and drugs den.
One officer said the bar was an underground brothel where clients had sex in cubicles and drugs including cocaine were easily available.
