Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger, 81, has been engaged to 37-year-old ballerina Melanie Hamrick for some time.
In an interview with Paris Match magazine published on Wednesday, Melanie Hamrick revealed that Mick Jagger proposed to her over two years ago. However, Melanie and the British rocker are in no rush to get married.
"Maybe one day we will get married, maybe not. We are so happy with our lives that I would not change anything," Melanie said.
⠀The couple, with a 44-year age gap, met in 2014 when Jagger and his legendary rock band toured Japan, where Hamrick also performed with the American Ballet Theatre. They welcomed their son Deveraux in 2016. Rumors of an engagement circulated in 2023 when Melanie Hamrick was spotted wearing a diamond ring, but they did not confirm the engagement then.
Mick Jagger was married once, to actress Bianca Jagger, from 1971 to 1978. They had a daughter, Jade Jagger, now 53, from that marriage. The rocker later dated singer Marianne Faithfull, actor Jerry Hall, and fashion designer L’Wren Scott. He has a total of seven children from previous relationships.
