They are engaged!!! When I first read it I thought it was a joke!!! but apparently it's true!!!!! Weird isn't it? Can't think of a more unlikely couple (but I'm sure you lot can!)

I think Jerry Hall looked lovely and they both looked very happy. All I would say is that after a lifetime of Mick Jagger's shenanigans I think she deserves someone far better than Rupert Murdoch - and that has nothing to do with his age or what he may or may not have in his trousers.

I could say all sorts of things here but what I will say is - GOOD LUCK to you both.

I think Barry Humphries said his present to them is David Beckham and a pair of jump leads.
Everything should be ok then grin

Well, I did hear a rumour that Mick Jagger didn't have much to brag about in that department...grin

Luckygirl Sat 05-Mar-16 22:37:48

Hidden in the depths of his trousers maybe grin

Not sure her dress was improved by clumping about in flat shoes, but I suppose she didn't want to tower over him too much. I can't see anything attractive about him at all and he's really far more in my age range than he is hers. He obviously has hidden depths,

Ah well, each to their own.

merlotgran Sat 05-Mar-16 18:41:21

I think she looked lovely. Quite natural for a change.

Ana Sat 05-Mar-16 18:39:18

I agree, she's made millions as a Supermodel, why on earth would she feel the need to marry him for his money? That old Mrs Merton joke is getting very tired...

Good luck to them - I hope they'll be very happy together.

As my Mum would have said "I wouldn't go to the foot of our stairs."

bookdreamer Sat 05-Mar-16 18:31:28

I just thought how happy they both looked.

I think she is rich enough in her own right.

Good luck and much happiness to them.

Jalima Sat 05-Mar-16 18:00:49

But at least this one has married Jerry grin
And I hope she'll be very happy

can't see the attraction in any of them myself £££

Lona Sat 05-Mar-16 17:58:27

Well, they both look very happy, so good luck to them! Plus she can wave V at Mick! wink

NotTooOld Sat 05-Mar-16 17:51:31

And after Brian Ferry and Mick Jagger, too.................sigh.

Badenkate Sat 05-Mar-16 15:49:31

I'm sure that is a thought that has occurred to many of us f77ms wink

I thought Jerry Hall looked lovely in her wedding dress today and very happy too.

I must admit Bill Wyman looked a wreck, pleasant chap though have seen him playing with his Rhythm Kings.

It's slightly amusing that posters object vigorously to a few hours of television time given over to the death of a pop icon, whilst continuing several threads about these two. Really confused

A question I would ask is ..... Jerry , what attracted you to the Billionaire Rupert Murdoch ?

absent Wed 13-Jan-16 04:52:35

What does it have to do with anyone else?

ajanela Wed 13-Jan-16 03:18:19

A 25 year difference and there are many 60 year olds marrying 35'year olds. I am sure Jerry's ex partner Mick Jaquer has relationships with this difference. Many big men stars marry women more than 25 their junior and this is how those couples,will be when the men get older to 84. For me the problem is I remember him pleading age and fragility when he appeared at the phone hacking enquiry, now he is happy and smiling proposing another marriage.

Maybe he has hidden talent, nudge nudge. Oh now I feel nauseated.

Pur lease - take that picture away shock

meadowgran Tue 12-Jan-16 17:25:52

As my partner often comments in these situations at least he won't trouble her much in the bedroom department or at least I hope not! I suppose it's a bit like Nigella and Mr Saatchi and look how that turned out. I always thought Jerry would go for a much younger man. Do you remember that scene in Sex and the City when Samantha decides to get it together with a much older man until she sees his unclothed rear view.

merlotgran Tue 12-Jan-16 17:18:55

Reminds me of the reaction when Jackie Kennedy married Aristotle Onassis.

granjura Tue 12-Jan-16 17:02:05

Makes me feel just a little bit sick- somehow. Jerry, what on earth are you thinking about (surely not the money, you've got enough)!
