Mick Jagger canoodled a young woman not even 3 months after LWrens suicide
Over the weekend, some sites published a few exclusive photos of Mick Jagger on a balcony in Zurich. Jagger was not alone – a young “mystery brunette” was leaning against his back, seemingly kissing the top of his head. You can see the photos here – they’re blurry, and I swear to God, the girl looks like Kristen Stewart. Anyway, some people have freaked out about this. Mick’s long-term girlfriend L’Wren Scott committed suicide on March 17th, not even three months ago and Mick is already “drowning himself” in 20-something biscuit.
L’Wren’s sister Jan Shane issued a statement immediately when the photos were published, saying:
“And people wonder why L’Wren was so depressed? These pictures make me really wonder what Mick is thinking and feeling. His daughter says that he is still heartbroken and so devastated about losing my sister. And then you see these photos he will never change.”
But some of Mick’s friends told the Daily Mirror:
“Some men drown their sorrow in drink. Mick doesn’t drink much but he drowns his sorrows in women…. Of course Mick is still sad over L’Wren but he is working through it and trying to move on with his life. He had a fling – he’s a red-blooded man. But it’s nice to see him enjoying life again.”
Another source says: “He has reverted back to his old ways. This is how he deals with things, even in his 70s. Through good times and bad, the thing that never changes is Mick’s love for women. Sex is like a coping mechanism for him. He grieved hard but Mick is someone who has always loved life and loves women. This is just Mick being Mick and moving on the only way he knows how.”
The Sun says that Mick’s dealings with this young woman weren’t limited to just one night – they met in a club in Zurich, then they spent two days together (the whole weekend). His people have gone to the press with statements like “he’s a single man” and “he’s having some fun.”
So, what do you think? It does make me wonder if L’Wren and Mick really were together when she killed herself. There were stories at the time that Mick had begun to pull away and that they had all but broken up. But I truly believe that the main “reason” for her suicide was her bad financial state and the shame she felt when she knew she was losing her clothing line. But… I don’t believe there was only ONE reason, I think it was a culmination of events and her ill mental health.
I do think there’s something cruel about saying that Mick should feel worse or that the displays of his grief aren’t enough. People grieve in different ways, and not all of those ways are appropriate or socially acceptable. Does it look bad, the fact that he’s drowning his sorrows in lady parts? Yes. But I also don’t doubt that L’Wren’s suicide hit him hard and that he already feels guilty. He did love her, but it was complicated. It’s more complicated than some cut and dry “Mick is a bastard and that’s why L’Wren killed herself.” I don’t know. I doubt he’s in a good place these days.
