She gave birth to his eighth child: Mick Jagger gets engaged to 36-year-old ballerina at 80

The famous British musician, lead singer of the iconic rock band The Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger has proposed to his girlfriend, ballerina Melanie Hamrick, who is 44 years younger than him. The couple have been together since 2014, and in 2016, the woman gave birth to the rocker's eighth child, a son, Devereaux Octavian Basil Jagger.

Insiders from their inner circle report that the couple got engaged. They claim that Hamrick flaunted a luxurious ring on her ring finger during a recent trip to the United States with her lover, The Mirror reports.

"Melanie was at the American Ballet Theatre and told her friends that she was engaged to Mick. She made it clear that her ring was an engagement ring, and now she is his fiancée. Her family also knows they are engaged and are thrilled about it," the publication quoted an insider as saying.

This marriage will be only the second for the 79-year-old rocker, who, as we have already noticed, is the father of eight children after a 45-year pause. His first official wife was Bianca Jagger (from 1971 to 1978).

Even now, many fans do not believe that the musician has decided to get rid of his bachelor status. Rumours are already circulating online that it won't come to marriage and a wedding, and the engagement story is just a PR stunt.

Whatever they say, Jagger and Hamrick have been together for almost 10 years. They are raising a son together, who, by the way, is two years younger than one of the star's great-grandchildren.

And Melanie herself is younger than four of the artist's eight children. However, it seems that the big age difference does not prevent the couple from maintaining a healthy relationship.

We would like to add that the singer and the ballerina started dating after Jagger broke up with his previous girlfriend, model and designer L'Wren Scott, who committed suicide.
