There are two reasons to rejoice for Keith Richards right now!
The Rolling Stones guitarist celebrated his 79th birthday on Sunday, and he commemorated the occasion by reenacting a passionate kiss he had with his wife Patti Hansen on the occasion of their wedding in 1983, which also took place on December 18 of that year.
“The celebration that took place yesterday was a jubilee. My parents recently hosted a party in which we celebrated my father turning another year older as well as the fact that they have been married for 39 years (in reality, they have been together for 43 years, but for the sake of argument, we’ll go off the legitimacy of their Cabo wedding in 1983) “wrote their daughter Theodora, 37, in an Instagram post alongside an image of Patti, 66, kissing Richards after slipping into her actual wedding dress. the post was accompanied by an image of Patti’s actual wedding dress.
She continued by saying, “I am extremely proud of this family.” “We’ve gone through a lot, but the love we share is so robust and potent that it will continue to propel us ahead on a cloud of compassion and bravery for the rest of our lives. Both of you have my affection, mum, and dad. My motivation comes from all of you. And HAPPIEST BIRTHDAY dear Daddio.”
Richards also commemorated the occasion by posting a flashback picture from his wedding to a model who was raised on Staten Island. The ceremony took place in Cabo San Lucas.
“Patricia, I hope you have a wonderful year! Sincerely, Keith” submitted the composer of “Gimme Shelter” along with the following information on the image: “Photo: Ken Regan. Dec.18, 1983”
Mick Jagger, Richard’s fellow bandmate, sent his own congratulations in a letter “Best wishes on your birthday, @officialkeef! Love Mick x “on his Instagram profile, along with a slideshow of photographs showing the two of them having a good time in each other’s company both on and off the stage.
Meanwhile, Ronnie Wood has his own cause to be jubilant about this development. On Wednesday, the musician commemorated the occasion of his and film producer Sally Humphreys’ tenth wedding anniversary by posting a flashback shot from their wedding in 2012.
In the captions that accompanied the photos, Wood wrote, “I’m very proud of my Sallins .” “Congratulations on your tenth anniversary!”
