A new book claims Mick Jagger had ongoing sexual relationships with two other members of the Rolling Stones.In her new book, The Stone Age: Sixty Years of the Rolling Stones, author Lesley-Ann Jones suggests Jagger had affairs with bandmates Keith Richards and Mick Taylor in addition to other notable male celebs and musicians, reports the British tabloid the Daily Mail.
Jones, who has written well-received biographies on David Bowie, Freddie Mercury, and John Lennon, further claims the affairs were common knowledge among their various girlfriends and wives of the men.
Jones also writes the relationship between Jagger and Richards was something deeper than just a one-off dalliance.Jones interviewed British singer and actress Marianne Faithfull, who was having a celebrated affair with Jagger during the band’s early years.
Faithfull said she always “had an inkling that there was a sexual undercurrent” in the early days of the musicians’ relationship.Richards’s former girlfriend Anita Pallenberg, who died in 2017, told Jones that there was a romantic nature to the two rockers' relationship.“From when I first met them, I saw Mick was in love with Keith,” Pallenberg is quoted.While Jagger may have been enthralled with Richards, that didn’t stop him from hopping in the sack with other men and women, according to Jones.
