MICK Jagger is the legendary frontman of the Rolling Stones, who began performing in the swinging sixties.
The singer has had to postpone the band’s tour of America and Canada after he was told he needs medical treatment. Here’s everything you need to know about the Satisfaction singer.
Mick Jagger was born in Dartford, Kent, on July 26 1943, making him 75-years-old.
He shot to fame as the frontman of the Rolling Stones, who he formed in 1962 with former classmate Keith Richards.
The band’s career has spanned over five decades and has included the release of 30 studio albums, 26 live albums and 120 singles.
He has also acted in a number of films, including 1968’s Performance and 1970’s Ned Kelly.
Mick Jagger is rumoured to be worth around £276million thanks to his five-decade long career.
His role as Rolling Stones frontman, as well film roles and producer credits have given him a huge fortune.
Mick Jagger has been in a relationship with 32-year-old Melanie Hamrick since 2014.
The Mail on Sunday reports that Mick made a commitment to Melanie when they were in Mustique over Christmas.
“He’s finally ready to settle down and be a one-woman man,” a source told the paper.
Jagger is infamous for his womanising ways and counts Angelina Jolie, Uma Thurman, Carla Bruni and Brigitte Bardot among his conquests, not to mention a rumoured fling with David Bowie.
Mick has been married only once, to Bianca in 1971, but she filed for divorce seven years later citing his adultery.
He also wed Jerry Hall in a private ceremony in Bali but it was later declared unlawful in the High Court.
The Rolling Stones have 18 children between the four of them, ranging from one month to 48 years old.
Mick Jagger’s eldest is Karis Hunt Jagger, 45, from his relationship with US star Marsha Hunt, 70.
He then had Jade Jagger, now 44, with ex-wife Bianca Jagger, 71.
Mick has four kids with ex-partner Jerry Hall, 60 — Elizabeth, 32, James, 30, Georgia, 24 and Gabriel, 18.
In 1999 he had a love child, Lucas, 17, after an affair with Brazilian model and TV host Luciana Gimenez, 46.
He also has a two-year-old son Deveraux with current girlfriend Melanie Hamrick.
The Rolling Stones have postponed their tour of America and Canada so that Mick Jagger can receive medical treatment.
The band, which also includes Ronnie Wood, Keith Richards and Charlie Watts, announced Saturday that frontman Jagger, 75, was told by doctors “he cannot go on tour at this time”
A statement shared on the band’s Twitter page added that the rocker “is expected to make a complete recovery so that he can get back on stage as soon as possible.”
Jagger said in a separate message to fans on Twitter on Saturday afternoon that he hates letting them down but he’s “looking forward to getting back on stage as soon as I can.”
No more details about his condition were provided.
