Beyond his fame as the frontman of The Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger has faced personal tragedies, with one of the most heartbreaking being the loss of his girlfriend, L’Wren Scott. Her death in 2014, while Jagger was on tour in Australia, revealed a deeply emotional side of the rock star.
Scott, a successful model and fashion designer, took her own life in New York, and Jagger immediately returned to be with her. His grief was evident when he released a rare and heartfelt message on his website, expressing his shock and sorrow. He described Scott as his “love and best friend,” and spoke of the great life they had built together.
Reports suggested the couple had separated shortly before her death, but Jagger’s representative clarified that they were still together at the time.
Scott’s tragic end, ruled as a suicide, was linked to financial difficulties with her fashion business, which was heavily in debt. Her death was a devastating blow to Jagger, exposing the vulnerable side of a man usually known for his public persona.
