In the realm of rock ‘n’ roll, longevity is often measured in the beats of a drum or the strums of a guitar. Keith Richards, the iconic guitarist for the Rolling Stones, recently notched up two significant milestones, celebrating both his 80th birthday and an impressive 40 years of wedded bliss with his wife.
The legendary rocker, often hailed as one of the greatest guitarists in the history of rock music, reached the octogenarian milestone, defying the conventional expectations of age. Known for his timeless riffs and unmistakable stage presence, Richards has been a driving force behind the Rolling Stones for over half a century, contributing to the band’s unparalleled success and enduring legacy.
Amidst the relentless touring, chart-topping albums, and a life in the spotlight, Richards has also managed to nurture a remarkable personal life. His enduring love story with his wife, Patti Hansen, hit the four-decade mark, a testament to the resilience of their union amidst the tumultuous lifestyle that often accompanies rock stardom.
