Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood was among the guests at Paul McCartney's wedding to Nancy Shevell. The ceremony took place at Old Marylebone Town Hall in London on October 9, 2011. Other celebrities at the event included Ringo Starr, Twiggy, Barbara Walters (who is a second cousin of Shevell's) and Jools Hollland. Shevell is McCartney's third wife. He was married to Linda McCartney from 1969 to 1998, when she died of breast cancer. His second marriage to Heather Mills, which lasted from 2002 to 2008, ended in a bitter divorce.

For anyone who cares, Wood attended the wedding with a young, attractive brunette who was not Ana Araujo. Araujo has been Wood's girlfriend/constant companion since 2010, but she was not with Wood at the event. The brunette who was Wood's date at the wedding has not yet been identified by the media.

On October 2, 2011, Wood accompanied Pattie Boyd (the late George Harrison's first wife) to the London premiere of the documentary film "George Harrison: Living in the Material World." Araujo wasn't at that event either. Considering that Araujo has been with Wood at almost every celebrity event that he has attended since he and Araujo began dating in 2010, it makes you wonder if their relationship is over or experiencing some major problems. Wood hasn't publicly revealed one way or the other what the current status of his relationship is with Araujo.

In another recent Rolling Stone sighting, the New York Post reports:

Keith Richards rolled into TriBeCa’s Canal Room on Wednesday night [October 5, 2011] to support his pal, New Orleans crooner Ivan Neville, and a benefit for the New Orleans Musicians Assistance Foundation. A spy said Richards invited Neville to join him in his studio the next day. The Stones star, wearing a fedora, a scarf and a red motorcycle jacket, hung in a booth with friends. Also playing were the Radiators’ Dave Malone and Camile Baudoin and Tony Hall.

Neville, a son of Aaron Neville, has been associated with Richards and the Rolling Stones for several years. Ivan Neville played keyboards on the Rolling Stones albums "Dirty Work" (1986) and "Voodoo Lounge" (1994), and he has been a member of the X-Pensive Winos (Richards' solo band) since the late 1980s. Richards has reportedly been working with Ivan Neville on new songs, which Richards has said in interviews could end up on the next Richards solo album with the X-Pensive Winos.
