Jerry Hall's 10 Year Old Son Imposes Boyfriend Ban

Posted by Karen Sugarpants

 

Jerry Hall's 10 year old son Gabriel is so protective of her, he's threatened suicide if she dates anyone.

Hall, 51, says Gabriel wants her to continue to live her life as a single mother.

She says, "Gabriel gets very angry with me if I work too much. And he absolutely hates the idea of me having a boyfriend. He says, 'If you get a boyfriend, I will kill myself.'

"I say to him, 'But darling, you will grow up and get married one day and it would be nice for Mum to have some company.' And he says, 'No Mum, I am never going to leave you.' But that's what boys are like, isn't it?"

And Hall insists she's in no rush to marry again, because she's happy on her own: "I think having a partner is a bonus, but I don't think it's a necessity. I've always had my own money and worked and looked after myself.

"I do see people and have dates and I think love is a wonderful thing, but that hasn't really happened to me. I haven't fallen in love. Maybe it will happen one day. But I think it would probably be idiotic to marry again. I seems to me that you do that when you want to have children. And I've had mine."

Hall has three other children with ex-husband Mick Jagger: Elizabeth, 24; James, 22, and Georgia, 16.

 

I'm sorry, but if my 10 year old was threatening suicide about ANYTHING, I'd be seeking some help for him.  That's bizarre and unhealthy.
