The belle and knighted rebel

Their relationship has fascinated the world of fashion and rock music for years and still continues to do so. They were together from 1977 until 1999. During that time they had four children together.

After a few relationships in the sixties, notably with Marianne Faithfull and Marsha Hunt with whom he had his first child, Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger (1943) married Nicaraguan Bianca de Macis in 1971. Jade was born from this union. Meanwhile, before meeting Mick, Jerry Hall (1956) was already very familiar with the pop-rock milieu. She posed for the cover of Roxy Music’s album Siren in 1975 and soon afterwards fell for the group’s lead singer, Bryan Ferry.

But in 1977, at a private dinner in Manhattan, Bryan’s girlfriend and Bianca’s husband ended up sitting next to each other. And it was love at first sight! The couple were admired both in the showbiz and underground world of the time. Andy Warhol loved them and they were stars at the very trendy Studio 54 in New York. In 1995, Jerry Hall became the face of Thierry Mugler’s legendary ‘Angel’ perfume (her daughter Georgia May took over this role in 2014). But aside from their glamorous lifestyle, Rolling Stones tours and red carpets, the couple had the perfect love and lived in London where Jerry and Mick led a precious family life with their four children.
