Mick Jagger, 73, welcomes baby no. 8 with 29 yr old girlfriend

Mick Jagger has welcomed his eighth child, his publicist confirmed. The 73-year old rocker and his 29-year-old girlfriend, American ballerina Melanie Hamrick, welcomed a baby boy Thursday in New York City.

I'll do the math for you. When she was born, Mick was 44 years old. When his new son turns 18, Mick will be 91 years old.

From the article:

He already had seven children ranging in age from 45 to 17. In 2014, Jagger became a great-grandfather when his then 21-year-old granddaughter, Assisi Jackson gave birth to a baby girl.

grow up without a father, if it was my choice. The odds are against Mick surviving to see this one grown.

Told my other half and he said, "I'm getting that Geritol today"

Mick Jagger once said, years and years ago, that they all swallow Geritol. (when asked how do they keep going strong)
