Oleksandra Nikolayenko and Phil Ruffin
While not wanting to cast doubts on the authenticity of a relationship solely based on age, the 86-year-old Phil Ruffin, a prominent figure in casinos, real estate, oil production, and greyhound race tracks in Vegas, is partnered with Ukrainian actress and model Oleksandra Nikolayenko, who is 40.
The dynamic can evoke perceptions of a "trophy wife" scenario, or perhaps Ruffin could be seen as the "trophy husband." The nature of their arrangement implies a comfortable lifestyle for Nikolayenko. Yet, it's also possible that their bond is grounded in genuine affection.
