Russell Simmons’ 21-year-old daughter, Aoki Lee Simmons, recently made headlines after reportedly ending her alleged brief fling with 65-year-old restauranteur Vittorio Assaf.
The news, initially reported by People, sparked discussions across social media platforms like Facebook. However, it’s essential to understand the nuances of the situation beyond the surface.
According to reports, Aoki and Assaf were seen together in St. Barths, which led to speculation about the nature of their relationship. People magazine delved into the matter, shedding light on the concerns raised by Aoki’s mother, Kimora Lee Simmons.
Sources close to the family revealed that Kimora was apprehensive about the fling, given its apparent lack of seriousness.
An insider quoted by People stated, “Not only is it ‘over’, it was never a thing. Aoki is learning to navigate her private life in a public sphere. And that can be difficult. However, Kimora was concerned to see her daughter in that kind of relationship due to what she herself went through.”
In response to the swirling rumors, Aoki took to Instagram Live to set the record straight. She adamantly denied having a boyfriend and emphasized her disinterest in tabloid gossip.
Her statement aimed to quell the speculations surrounding her personal life, highlighting the challenges of living under public scrutiny.
