Rourke: Girlfriend Is “A Gift From Heaven”
By Wyatt Earp | January 22, 2010
Actually, Christina Hendricks is a gift from Heaven. Anastassija Makarenko is simply proof that there is a God.
A year after his emotional comeback performance earned him a Golden Globe for The Wrestler, Mickey Rourke was once again on cloud nine at this year’s show, thanks to the new love he squired down the red carpet.
Rourke’s girlfriend – who has widely been misidentified on the Internet – is Russian-born model Anastassija Makarenko, Rourke reveals exclusively to PEOPLE. “She’s a gift from heaven,” says the actor, 57, who seemed smitten as he kept a tight grip the stunning blonde throughout the evening.
“Obviously she’s a very beautiful woman,” says Rourke. “But she’s got the biggest heart, she’s got a great family, she’s really close to her mother and father – they’re great people.”
I have to admit that I really like Mickey Rourke. His comeback is a great story, and I think he’ll kick major arse in Iron Man 2. As for Anastassija . . .
Okay, I stand corrected. She’s Heaven-sent.

Maybe, she’s a gift from his plastic surgeon to apologize for the mess that is now his face.
