Following a whirlwind romance that sparked speculation, Aoki Lee Simmons and Vittorio Assaf have reportedly ended their affair, just days after publicly confirming their relationship during a retreat in St. Barts.
Sources close to the situation have disclosed to Page Six that the romance between Simmons and Assaf is officially over.
Previously, during their vacation, Aoki had referred to Assaf as her “boyfriend” in several Instagram Live sessions, even tagging him as her “second boyfriend” while showcasing his luxurious St. Barts residence. However, despite these gestures, the duo’s apparent intimacy on the beach stirred rumors, prompting swift denials from Aoki.
Clarifying the situation, Aoki allegedly stated, “Of course, I’m not with him. I was never with him,” despite her earlier expressions of delight during their stay at Assaf’s island abode.
Additionally, insiders have refuted claims that Aoki is motivated by materialism, deeming such suggestions as “absurd.” According to sources, Aoki is described as someone who is not swayed by material possessions, indicating that lavish items like jewelry and designer brands hold little significance to her.
Furthermore, acquaintances of Assaf have portrayed him as possessing a youthful allure, despite his age, with a noted penchant for younger companions. One source remarked, “He’s always loved younger beautiful women… his taste hasn’t changed.”
Last week, images of Aoki, aged 21, sharing a kiss with the 65-year-old restaurateur during their serene getaway captured widespread attention across various media platforms.
