The news of 21-year-old Aoki Lee Simmons dating 65-year-old Serafina founder Vittorio Assaf has sparked quite the controversy. Initially, sources claimed that Kimora Lee Simmons, Aoki’s mother, was furious about the relationship. However, conflicting reports have emerged stating that the fling between Aoki and Assaf is already over.
Despite Aoki referring to Assaf as her “boyfriend” on Instagram Live and sharing intimate moments from their St. Barts vacation, sources close to her have insisted that they are not dating. After exclusive images of the couple kissing on the beach were published by Page Six, Aoki reportedly denied being in a relationship with Assaf, claiming that she was never with him.
Sources describe Assaf as an “older man with little boy charm” who has a history of dating younger women. Despite his age, his taste for companionship has remained consistent over the years. It is even suggested that his appealing physical attributes may play a role in attracting women to him.
Interestingly, Aoki’s father, Russell Simmons, seemed to be supportive of the relationship, stating that he offers his advice and unconditional love to his daughter. Despite video evidence of Aoki expressing her desire for luxury gifts, sources claim that she is not materialistic and such behavior is out of character for her.
Contrary to the image portrayed in the media, Aoki Lee Simmons is highlighted as a Harvard graduate who mingles with the Ivy League crowd. Her recent appearance at Columbia Law School’s Barristers’ Ball showcased her in a different light, away from the controversial romantic entanglement with Vittorio Assaf.
The conflicting reports surrounding Aoki Lee Simmons and Vittorio Assaf’s relationship highlight the complexities of human interactions and the influence of public perception. Despite initial outrage from sources close to the situation, the reality may be far different from what is portrayed in the media. Ultimately, only those directly involved can truly understand the dynamics at play in this unconventional romance.
