How an ex-ballerina finally tamed rock’s wildest philanderer… At 82, Mick Jagger has never been happier with girlfriend Mel, 38, and are even talking of having another baby ‘if fate allows’

On the eve of his 82nd birthday, Mick Jagger seemed to dance joyfully along the street. Never before had he appeared so content, particularly at the festive gathering held last Friday, which brought together many of his children and former partners.

As an ardent admirer, let me share that for over two decades, my cherished companion, Jerry Hall, stood by my side, and so did our beautiful offspring – Lizzie (age 41), Georgia (33), and Gabriel (27). Together we formed a family unit, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Additionally, Luciana Morad, a Brazilian model who once had a relationship with the lead singer of the Rolling Stones in 1998 and had a son named Lucas as a result, was also present at the Rex Rooms in London’s Notting Hill. This union led to Lucas, now 26 years old, and ultimately marked a significant turning point for Jerry. However, it appears that all of this history has been largely overshadowed by time.

It was Melanie Hamrick, Mick’s ex-ballerina partner aged 38, who orchestrated this diplomatic event. She was present with a lively spirit and towering heels.

She and Mick have been together for 11 years and engaged for three.

As an overly enthusiastic admirer, I’ve heard whispers that though a wedding isn’t imminent due to his apparent fear of matrimony, they are reportedly more content than ever. In fact, there have been conversations about the potential for another addition to their family, should destiny grant them the opportunity.

In simpler terms, their child named Deveraux, more commonly called Devi, is eight years old. Meanwhile, Mick has only recently embraced the pleasures of stable, committed family life.

It has been reported that as people reach Mick’s age, the tendency to stray or cheat diminishes significantly. As a result, veteran rock stars like Rod Stewart, Mick, and Ronnie Wood are choosing to settle down instead.

Melanie has a secret about her – she’s incredibly flexible and always caters to his desires, much like a ballerina. Among all his past girlfriends, she stands out as the most intelligent. To put it simply, she understands and fulfills what he requires of her, just like the lyrics in a song suggest.

However, it’s important to note that Melanie, a former dancer with the American Ballet Theatre for 15 years until her retirement in 2019, is far from being easily intimidated. In the initial stages of her relationship with Mick, she skillfully handled the challenge posed by Noor Alfallah, a socialite who was also linked to him at age 31. Later on, she had a child with Al Pacino, the renowned actor known for his role as The Godfather, who is currently 85 years old.

Afterward, Melanie started mending fences with each of her former partners, showcasing a remarkable talent for diplomacy.

A friend of Melanie’s commented: ‘I believe the peculiar and lonely ballet realm served as an ideal precursor for being a consort of the Rolling Stones. It’s a male-dominated, sexist environment that requires toughness. Fortunately, she gets along wonderfully with Jerry and all his past partners. She has made efforts to connect with their children too, and they all seem fond of her.’

It’s generally not widely known that the Jagger family spends a significant portion of their lives in France. They split their time between Mick’s residence in Paris and his 17th-century chateau, La Fourchette, located in the Loire valley. As Melanie’s friend explains, “They are often with him, and he enjoys their company. They lead a genuine family life.

But their Parisian home does have a bitter-sweet history.

Mick resided at The Left Bank apartment alongside his late partner, L’Wren Scott – a renowned fashion designer who took her own life in 2014. Prior to her passing, L’Wren was grappling with business complications and rumors of relationship strife circulated, although it was claimed they hadn’t split up before her demise.

Mick has always kept L’Wren in his memory, and this past April, he took to Instagram to wish her a ‘Happy Birthday’. The dynamic and imaginative L’Wren designed the Parisian home to reflect herself, and carefully selected many of its furnishings.

And now Melanie is sitting at her dining room table, with her blonde ‘mini-Mick’ Devi at her side.

It’s been shared that Melanie is studying French these days. The reason being, her partner, Mick, is fluent in French, and their child has also started speaking it fluently.

In my fervent admiration, I find myself captivated by an unusual aspect of their relationship that stands apart from his other serious romances, such as with L’Wren. Unlike those, she seems less career-driven and more aligned with him in terms of shared interests, particularly fitness. This passion for physical wellness takes center stage between them, and interestingly enough, both maintain a similar eating habit – sparse meals, if you will.

According to the source, ‘She isn’t pushy or demanding; she simply enjoys being Mick’s girlfriend. Marriage doesn’t seem like an urgent matter for her, as it’s not something she pressures him about.’

In February 2014, they crossed paths while he was in Tokyo with the Rolling Stones and she was performing with the American Ballet Theater. It so happened that she was then betrothed to a ballet dancer.

They were first seen together on the balcony of The Dolder Grand hotel in Zurich, eleven weeks following L’Wren’s demise.

Approximately a year later, it appeared as though Noor had made her debut. Some reports indicate that during May 2016, when Mick was recording in LA, he and Noor were frequently spotted at the luxurious Montage Hotel in Beverly Hills. However, seven months after this alleged encounter, Melanie welcomed Deveraux, Mick’s eighth child, in December 2016, which seemed to push Noor out of the limelight once more.

In a 2018 interview with You magazine, Melanie expressed that her partner is an exceptional, kind-hearted, and loving father, and to her, he’s simply the most remarkable man on the planet.

Regarding the gossip about Mick’s supposed roving gaze, she reassured, ‘I am confident in our bond. There may be whispers, but I understand our connection, so I choose to disregard such speculations.’

It appears that Melanie’s ‘not-inquire-not-disclose’ approach benefited her. Jerry Hall, now 69, struggled with envy during their time together, especially concerning Mick’s relationship in the early 1990s with supermodel Carla Bruni, who later married former French president Nicolas Sarkozy, causing much turmoil.

Mick tied the knot just one time, that being with Nicaraguan social advocate Bianca back in 1971. Together, they welcomed a daughter named Jade (now 53 years old). Unfortunately, their marriage ended in 1978 due to Mick’s relationship with Jerry, which was the primary cause of their split.

His 1990 Hindu marriage in Bali to Jerry was later declared null and void after they split in 1999.

L’Wren Scott got a giant ring for her ring finger, but they were never officially engaged.

However, unlike other engagements, Melanie’s is unique as it was announced in the presence of her family and friends, with Jerry being among the early confidants. It was revealed that Melanie has been engaged for a period ranging between two to three years, as she recently disclosed in April this year.

Her work as an author is largely part-time, and she takes great joy in her primary role as Mick’s companion and the mother to his child. She accompanied him for a large portion of his tour last year, and they are currently in London this summer while he works on a new Rolling Stones album with Devi.

Melanie also accompanied him to Windsor Castle for the state visit of Emmanuel Macron.

One way to rephrase the given sentence in a natural and easy-to-read manner could be: Melanie has learned not to bring up Mick’s increasing age as a topic. It is unlikely that there were 82 lit candles on his birthday cake this week.

The source mentioned that she rarely discusses his age or the difference in their ages, as this subject is not relevant or significant for them.

And so it seems Mel has cracked the code to a happy ever after with Mick Jagger.
