Rock legend and sex symbol Mick Jagger’s jaded history with women requires a 24-hour dedicated news channel. It’ll certainly have enough drama to keep it running long into the foreseeable future. Jagger’s love life has seen its fair share of suicide attempts.
For the sake of brevity, here are some of the more troublesome relationships the Rolling Stones frontman had over the course of his life.
Jagger’s first serious girlfriend was Chrissie Shrimpton, who started dating him in 1963. Shrimpton stated that she knew of three occasions where Jagger cheated on her, but commented “there must have been many more times.” In 1966 Jagger started seeing the then budding singer Marianne Faithfull, behind Shrimpton’s back. As he grew more distant from Shrimpton, he canceled their planned trip to Jamaica. After this Shrimpton took an overdose of sleeping pills, but Jagger found her in time. While recuperating in a clinic she found out about Jagger and Faithfull in the newspapers.
Marianne Faithfull’s courtship with Jagger was just as bumpy. In 1967, police found her clad only in a fur rug as they busted Jagger and fellow band member Keith Richards for drug possession. In 1967 she had enough with Jagger and life, swallowing 50 sleeping tablets and washed them down with hot chocolate. Again Jagger got to her in time, but this was the start of a downward spiral for Faithfull and the end of their relationship.
Jagger’s first marriage to Bianca Perez-Mora Macias, ended for all intents and purposes after a year, but they only divorced years later; staying together for their daughter. He replaced Bianca with supermodel Jerry Hall, who he married and had a couple of kids with. But his infidelity, which resulted in a son, led to them annulling the marriage.
