Mick Jagger’s girlfriend tells fans to ‘mind their own business’ over taboo age gap

Mick Jagger’s girlfriend Melanie Harmick says she’s not worried about their large age gap.

In fact, she’s says neither should you. The 37-year-old ballerina linked up with the Rolling Stones singer, 81, leaving a 44-year age disparity between them. However, she said that it’s never on her mind as she is much more focused on the connection in their relationship, rather than the taboo dynamic.

She told The Times: “I don’t think about it. Everyone’s going to have their opinion. If you think about others’ opinions, no matter where you are in life, you’re going to have a problem, and you’re going to analyze it.”

Melaine also emphasized just how happy she is in her love life, noting that it doesn’t affect anyone else. “They can mind their own business,” she shaded the haters. She went on to explain that they met very casually at first with a quick fist bump while at a concert in Tokyo in 2014.

At the time, Mick was dating L’Wren Scott, who tragically took her own life one month after he met Melanie. The music icon was open about how grief affected him. However, by summer, he was linked with Melanie.

The pair clicked pretty quickly, especially since Melanie wasn’t phased by his star power. After all, she’s famous in her own right as a talented ballet dancer. Melanie is focused on her craft, immersing her in the world of dance and shutting herself out from much of the entertainment world.

According to Melanie, ballerinas meet a lot of stars, but don’t always even know who they are. While that wasn’t necessarily the case with Mick, she did feel an understanding and connection over their shared artistry. She said: “Mick is the perfect balance. He’s not a ballet dancer, but he is a dancer and a performer, and we understand each other’s worlds, yet we’re not in each other’s worlds.”

Melaine and Mick share a son, Deveraux ‘Devi’ Octavian Basil Jagger who was born in 2016. His latest child is his eighth from a fifth partner. The pair are still happily together, according to Melanie.
