Interesting facts about Mick Jagger's life

The Rolling Stones frontman and rock and roll icon Mick Jagger led an exciting life, and many of his secrets are little known.

Mick Jagger, who will turn 79 in July, leads a quiet life and enjoys love with 44-year-old ballerina Melanie Hamrick. The famous rocker was quite naughty, so he has as many as eight children with five different women and reportedly slept with more than 4,000 members of the fairer sex. The ballerina gave birth to his youngest son Deveraux in 2016.

Although his love life has always fascinated the public, Jagger tried to keep it to himself as much as possible, as well as the various scandals he made during his long career. What the hedonistic life of Mick Jagger actually looked like in the 1980s, at the peak of the Rolling Stones' fame, may never be known, but on one occasion some bizarre things leaked to the public thanks to publisher John Blake, who has unpublished memoirs handed to him by the rocker a few years ago.

As it was written at the time, Blake asked the singer to publish them, but he did not give him permission. In them, the famous rocker discovered that under the influence of LSD he did all sorts of nonsense, and even bought a large estate in Hampshire. He almost died once when he was riding a horse without a saddle because he wanted to feel the freedom of the rural way of life. Jagger once intended to publish a book he wrote in the eighties, but he was prevented by the death of his girlfriend L'Wren Scott. She hanged herself in 2014, and a few days after her body was found in the apartment, Jagger met the current chosen one.

Blake also revealed how Jagger's mother reacted when he visited his parents' home after a two-year world tour, on which alcohol and opiates were indispensable stimulants. Eva, who was a hairdresser, was shocked only by his bad haircut. Those close to the famous rocker also claim that he is in an open relationship with a ballerina, so they can both be with other people. Even while she was pregnant, the musician was often seen in the company of model Masha Rudenko. 

Sources added that the musician gives the ballerina "pocket money" of 15,000 dollars every month for the care of her son, and he also promised to pay all the expenses for his education by Deveraux's 18th birthday. Mick Jagger also has five grandchildren, while he became a great-grandfather in 2014. "I think I'm a pretty good father," Jagger once said, adding, "I have a good relationship with children, and not just my own. Children keep us young and make us laugh."
