Last month, on October 18, 2025, legendary Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger, 82, and his fiancée Melanie Hamrick, 38, made a rare public appearance at the British Museum Ball in London. The couple, who have been engaged for "two or three years" according to Hamrick, were all smiles as they walked the red carpet and posed for photos.
Hamrick, a former professional ballet dancer, has previously explained that she and Jagger choose to keep their relationship out of the public eye, as she believes "family is so personal, and it's a bubble." She compared this decision to her time as a ballet dancer, saying "there needs to be a mystery or people are going to get sick of you."
Despite their long-standing engagement, Hamrick has stated that she and Jagger may or may not ever actually marry, as they are "so happy in their current life" and she would be "too afraid to change anything." The couple first met in 2014 in Tokyo, where Hamrick was performing with the American Ballet Theatre and the Rolling Stones were also performing. They began dating the following year, drawing attention due to their 44-year age gap.
