Today we’re talking about Mick Jagger’s fiancée, Melanie Hamrick, a former ballerina, who has addressed recent misrepresentations about her views on The Rolling Stones through her Instagram.
Hamrick stated: “This is a total mistranslation from a French interview. It’s obvious no one at this paper speaks French. I find the stones music anything but boring. “They are an inspiration to myself and millions! I even choreograph in my work.”
She added: “My ballet Porte Rogue is based on my favorite songs – ‘She’s a Rainbow,’ ‘Sympathy for the Devil,’ and ‘Paint it Black.’
Her statement refutes a news article that claimed she found Rolling Stones songs boring. The article had also suggested there was ‘no spark’ during her first meeting with Jagger. Her connection to music and dance extends far beyond these misrepresented claims.
Melanie is engaged to Mick. Hamrick met Jagger while he was on tour with the Rolling Stones. The Nightly noted the couple’s two to three-year engagement. Hamrick views their engagement ring as a ‘promise ring.’ She expressed satisfaction with their current lifestyle, showing no rush toward marriage.
In a recent interview with Paris Match, Hamrick confirmed that she accepted Jagger’s proposal “two or three years” ago. They first began dating in 2014 and welcomed a son, Deveraux, in 2016. When asked about marriage, she said:
“Maybe one day, maybe not. We’re so happy in our current life that I’d be too afraid to change anything.”
A report from Live Arts Global highlighted Hamrick’s distinguished career as a professional ballerina. She dedicated 16 years to the American Ballet Theatre. Her training at the prestigious Kirov Academy of Ballet led to collaborations with celebrated choreographers Alexei Ratmansky and Twyla Tharp.
During an interview on Loose Women, Hamrick spoke about her and husband Mick Jagger’s love story.
