Jerry Hall is an American model and actor who rose to fame in the 1970s, becoming one of the world’s most sought-after supermodels. Born and raised in working-class Texas, she was discovered at 16 on a beach in St. Tropez, and moved to France to model, sharing a Paris apartment with Grace Jones and Jessica Lange.

She has been photographed by the greatest photographers including Helmust Newton and David Bailey, and by 1977 she had graced the cover of 40 international fashion magazines. Hall was a muse to the artist Andy Warhol and fashion illustrator Antonio Lopez, and sat for Lucian Freud when she was eight months pregnant. Her appearance on the cover of Roxy Music’s Siren became one of the defining images of the decade and cemented her place within both fashion and popular culture.

Jerry Hall and Mick Jagger became a glamorous, high profile couple in 1977, marrying in Bali in 1990. They are the parents of four children, including fellow models Georgia May and Elizabeth Jagger.

In 2021, Hall returned as the face of Saint Laurent, fronting the Spring/Summer 2022 campaign, photographed by David Sims.

She appeared on the cover of Perfect Magazine in 2024, and Harper’s Bazaar España. In 2025, she was honored as part of Chloé’s portraits campaign, celebrating the brand’s most iconic women. 

In 2026, the year she turns 70, Jerry has joined the cast of Celebrity Traitors, further cementing her status as one of Britain’s most enduring and entertaining cultural figures.
