The $30 million toe in the water

The Rolling Stones are gearing up for a busy season, including the release of their 25th studio album, 'Foreign Tongues,' in July. The band's iconic guitarist, Keith Richards, has become a great-grandfather for the first time, as his granddaughter Ella Richards welcomes her newborn daughter Luna.

Ella, who recently celebrated her 30th birthday, shared a tender photograph of herself resting beside the newborn on a blanket, captioning the post: '30!! best birthday yet with our baby girl Luna.'

A familiar pattern from the 2019 crash

Ella's romantic relationship with Sascha von Bismarck, a 31-year-old photographer from a prominent European aristocratic family, was confirmed in early 2023. The couple's connection was described by Ella as 'really easy ,' and she felt 'very comfortable' with Sascha taking her photo, which is a 'very personal thing.'

Ella's family background is also notable, with her grandparents' marriage being described as 'bohemian' and unconventional. Her grandfather, Keith Richards, is known for his 'wild man' public persona, but Ella paints a different picture, describing him as 'quiet and sweet and loving.'
