Fashion mogul Kimora Lee Simmons has finally shared her candid thoughts on the controversial relationship between her daughter, Aoki Lee Simmons and 65-year-old restaurateur Vittorio Assaf. In a recent appearance on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, the 50-year-old entrepreneur described the short-lived 2024 romance as “predatorial and kinda crazy,” admitting that the situation deeply concerned her as a mother.

The relationship first made headlines in April 2024, when paparazzi photos surfaced of the then-21-year-old Harvard graduate kissing the Serafina Restaurant Group founder during a vacation in St. Barths. Kimora revealed that she was completely blindsided by the news, discovering the relationship through media reports at the same time as the general public. She noted that the situation escalated from zero to one hundred almost instantly, and finding out alongside the rest of the world was particularly shocking.

Despite her alarm, Kimora explained that she chose to exercise restraint rather than immediately confront her daughter. She noted that when a situation blows up so quickly in the public eye, being an overbearing parent can sometimes be counterproductive. She expressed that as a mother, one cannot always react with immediate outrage, as she wanted to allow her daughter the space to navigate her own choices and learn from the experience.

Kimora’s perspective was also shaped by her own past experiences with significant age-gap relationships. She drew parallels between Aoki’s situation and her own history, stating that she views such dynamics as inherently predatorial. She further suggested that Assaf, whom she has known for years in professional circles, carries a reputation that preceded him, adding to her discomfort with the pairing.

While the news cycle surrounding the pair was intense, the actual relationship was reportedly fleeting. Sources close to the family confirmed that the romance was completely over only days after the photos first appeared in the media. Kimora echoed

this sentiment, categorizing the fling as just a brief moment rather than a substantial connection.

Kimora emphasized that while she finds such massive age gaps alarming, she remains committed to supporting her children as they grow. Aoki Lee Simmons, who graduated from Harvard at age 20, has since focused on her modeling career and has not been publicly linked to Assaf since the brief media firestorm subsided.

BRONWYN NEWPORT AND TODD BRADLEY SPLIT AFTER 9 YEARS

Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Bronwyn Newport and her husband Todd Bradley have separated after nine years of marriage, following a period marked by growing tension that was documented across seasons five and six of the show. The breakup was confirmed on December 12, with Bronwyn's representative stating that "after thoughtful consideration, Bronwyn Newport and Todd Bradley have separated," adding that it was "a mutual decision made with care and respect for one another" and that they "ask for privacy during this time."

Months before the split became public, Bronwyn had already acknowledged challenges within their relationship while discussing her experience filming RHOSLC. Reflecting on a vulnerable moment during a trip to Puerto Vallarta, she recalled, "I really felt like I was connecting with the women... when I was talking to them about issues that Todd and I have had in the past." Opening up on camera was difficult for her, noting, "Me sharing something is not natural for me. I have to really trust somebody... and I wish that had gone differently."

Bronwyn shared that Todd had mixed feelings about her being on the show, admitting that he "would prefer she didn't film" even though "Todd is so incredibly proud of me." She added that he appreciated that she used her platform to highlight "organizations and causes that I care about." However, the process was not easy for him: "It's so hard for Todd to watch me argue with the women and let it go."

As season six approached, Bronwyn noted that Todd intentionally reduced his on-camera involvement, opting to stay out of group scenes and interactions with the other cast members and their partners. His intention was to avoid becoming part of the ongoing discussions among the women. However, despite stepping back, Bronwyn admitted that conversations about him still continued — only now they took place when he wasn't present.

Their marriage had long included complications, including allegations explored on the show. Bronwyn reiterated that "there's no way Todd cheated with one of Lisa's friends," though she separately addressed an incident in which he was accused of "getting caught on a plane cheating," prompting a fight that ended with him staying at a hotel. She also revisited an earlier emotional affair, saying Todd admitted "it's a fatal flaw of his" tied to a mindset where "he's never satisfied."
