Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood stays silent on Jo Wood's memoirs Ronnie Wood, the Rolling Stone, would not appear to agonise about his public image. His second wife, Jo, paints a warts and all portrait of him in Hey, Jo, A Rock and Roll Fairytale, but he would appear to be unperturbed. "Everyone knows about his alcoholism and his infidelities, so I just went into a bit more detail, but there is loads of other stuff about my life," Jo tells Mandrake at Liberty in Soho. I hand-delivered the book to him last week and I haven't heard back. If he was upset, he would be on the phone. Trust me, I know him. The stunningly handsome 51-year-old author of Umbrella adds that Tim Henman, along with all the other Tims in the world, would have enjoyed greater success in their lives had they simply changed their names. Strangely, he does not mention me, or, for that matter, Tim Berners-Lee, who could presumably have done a lot more with his life than simply have invented the world wide web if he had been called Geoff. This Tim now harbours an extreme prejudice against people called Will, particularly when it comes before a silly name like Self. Winstone's girl is off the market The photographer Tom Beard may have told me last year that he still held a candle for Jaime Winstone but his former girlfriend now seems to be inseparable from the actor Alfie Allen, the brother of Lily. A month after I disclosed that Ray Winstone's actress daughter had fallen for the tousle-haired Allen, she was at his side all night at the NME Awards after-party hosted by Ciroc at the Wyld bar, W London. The couple, who broke off their engagement in 2010, were initially coy about confirming they were together again, but now she tells me: "I don't think it's a secret any more." Poignantly, Beard told me, when I ran into him last year, that he still thought of the 27-year-old Elfie Hopkins actress as the great love of his life.
