Jerry Hall has declared she has sworn off men for good as she approaches her 70th birthday, saying she is happier being single after a famously tumultuous love life. In a candid interview, the Texan supermodel opened up about her high-profile exes, including Sir Mick Jagger, 82, admitting she has remained "good friends" with the Rolling Stone legend despite his infidelity during their 23-year relationship.
"I'm not dating at all and not planning on it," Hall said. "Next birthday, I'll be 70, which is quite old. Definitely more summers have gone than are coming. You want to enjoy life." She added: "I enjoy being older because you can sit in the shade and you don't have rivals. You don't have delusions. There's no women chasing my man, that's for sure, because I haven't got one. I quite enjoy that."
Hall began a relationship with Jagger in 1977 after leaving her fiancé, Roxy Music frontman Bryan Ferry. The couple held a Hindu wedding in Bali in 1990. She was devastated when Brazilian model Luciana Gimenez gave birth to Jagger's son Lucas during their marriage. DNA tests confirmed paternity, and Hall filed for divorce, though Jagger contested the marriage's legality. Despite the hurt, Hall said she has forgiven him. "Everyone wanted to sleep with him. He was so attractive and so talented. I could understand. He was Mick Jagger. What can you say? It was annoying, of course. But now, I think everything worked out the way it should have."
Hall noted she gets on well with Jagger's fiancée, Melanie Hamrick, and they spent last Christmas together in Mustique with their children and grandchildren. After splitting from Jagger, Hall married media mogul Rupert Murdoch in 2016, divorcing six years later. She now lives mostly in Oxfordshire but sometimes stays at the Richmond Hill property Jagger bought in the 1990s. Despite swearing off romance, Hall admitted she still finds "strong men" attractive but insists she will not act on those desires.
