Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood, 68, has had a storied history with women. In 2008 he left his then second wife of 23 years, Jo Frost, for a 19 year-old Russian cocktail waitress he met while on business in Ireland. He’s had ongoing drinking issues, particularly when he took up with the teenage waitress, and has been in rehab about seven times. In 2012 things settled down for him somewhat when he married a woman 31 years younger than him, now 37 year-old Sally Wood, who owns a theater production company. Sally has defended their relationship by saying that life is short, essentially. Ronnie has four children from his first two wives, with half of them older than his current wife: Jamie, 41, Jesse, 39, Leah, 37, and Tyrone, 32. Well now Ronnie won’t have to worry about all his kids being around his wife’s age because Sally is pregnant with twins, due in June. Surely he has grandkids who will be older than their aunt and/or uncles.
Ronnie Wood is going to be a father again! The 68-year-old Rolling Stones guitarist and his wife, Sally Humphreys, are expecting twins, according to a spokesperson for the band.
“Sally and Ronnie Wood are delighted to announce that they are expecting twins in June 2016,” the spokesperson said in a statement. “They are thrilled and overjoyed with the wonderful news.”
Wood and Humphreys, 37, were friends for nine years before they got married in London in December 2012.
In an interview last year, Sally said that they weren’t actively planning to have children but that she wanted them some day. She said that Ronnie had agreed and was up for it too. “He’s got a lot of friends that are older who have younger children and they all say it’s fantastic and it keeps you young.” Well congratulations? This reminds me of Tony Randall passing away at 83 and leaving behind sons aged 6 and 7 and a wife who was just 33. I mean this isn’t a 50 year age difference and Ronnie is 68, not 78, but still he’s a little long in the tooth for having babies. It’s like if my dad had kids with a woman my age. He’s not a rock star though.
