Mick Jagger -

In her book 'The Stone Age: Sixty Years of the Rolling Stones,' acclaimed biography author Lesley-Ann Jones suggests Mick Jagger had ongoing sexual relationships with not one but two bandmates: Keith Richards and Mick Taylor, reports the Daily Mail. Jones claims that the various wives and girlfriends of the rockers knew of the affairs between the men, as Richards’s former girlfriend Anita Pallenberg, who died in 2017, told Jones, "From when I first met them, I saw Mick was in love with Keith." Taylor's former wife Rose also reportedly found her then-husband in bed with Jagger at a dinner party.

Those two are in great company on the list of Jagger's conquests, which allegedly include other notable male celebs and musicians like David Bowie. Still, even moving between friends, colleagues, and lovers, Richards reportedly remained Jagger's most meaningful, and most long-lasting, relationship of all.
