The Rolling Stones member is a father to five kids: sons Marlon and Tara and daughters Angela, Theodora and Alexandra
As one of the original members of The Rolling Stones, it’s no surprise that musician Keith Richards has led a legendary life. Aside from being an iconic rock star, Keith is also a proud father to his five children: Marlon, Angela, Tara, Theodora and Alexandra.
In the 1970s, Keith welcomed his first three kids with model Anita Pallenberg: sons Marlon and Tara and daughter Angela. A few years after his relationship with Pallenberg ended, Keith married model Patti Hansen and the couple welcomed two daughters: Theodora and Alexandra.
Marlon worked with filmmakers Alexis Bloom and Svetlana Zill to create a documentary called Catching Fire: The Story of Anita Pallenberg to tell the story of his mother’s life, which is in theaters May 3, 2024. He was inspired by a manuscript and secretly recorded interviews that Pallenberg had hidden in her home to tell the story of her life, found by his children, Ella and Orson, while the family was going through her things after her 2017 death.
“I had to sit down and have a bottle of wine. It was revelatory. She said things I had no idea about,” Marlon told PEOPLE.
Keith hasn’t spoken extensively about his children, but some are more drawn to the spotlight than others. His oldest kids, Marlon and Angela, live more private lives, while his youngest ones, Theodora and Alexandra, are the most well-known, having pursued careers in the entertainment industry. Unfortunately, his son, Tara, died at just 2 months old.
In December 2022, Keith and Hansen celebrated 39 years of marriage. Theodora wrote about their love in a post on her Instagram: “I am so proud of this family. We’ve been through a lot but the love is so strong and powerful that it carries us forever forward on a cloud of compassion and courage. I love you mom and dad. You guys are my inspiration.”
