Jo Wood To Dance Her Way To A New Man

3 weeks ago 28th Oct 13:00

Jo Wood plans to use her new dance moves to find a man.

The 54-year-old - who put her divorce battle from Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood on hold to appear in 'Strictly Come Dancing' - says her new rhythms should help her find a new love.

She told The Sun newspaper: "I'm going to grab them and drag them across the floor doing the Viennese waltz.

"I can go up to a man and say, 'Do you want to Viennese waltz with me?' "And he'll say, 'I don't know how to do it.' And I'll say, 'I'll show you.'"

Jo, who runs an organic company, was devastated when husband Ronnie, 62, left her for teenage waitress Ekaterina Ivanova last year.

And she said that learning a new skill has helped her become stronger.

She said: "It made me go out and do something for myself rather than him.

"It was such a great challenge, and I really believe if you challenge yourself in life it makes you stronger."

It was such a great challenge, and I really believe if you challenge yourself in life it makes you stronger.

Ronnie, who was reportedly furious on hearing his ex-wife was appearing in the show, hasn't spoken to her since the programme's first week.

She said: "He said, 'What on earth made you want to do a show like that?' I've no idea if Ronnie was voting for me. I don't even know where he is."

Despite being booted out of 'Strictly' on Saturday (24.10.09) after a disastrous samba, Jo is ready for her next challenge - resuming her divorce battle with Ronnie, which is worth an estimated £12 million.

She said: "I've got that to think about next. Next year, I'll sort my divorce out."
