Stones leave Perth after Jagger girlfriend suicide

THE Rolling Stones jetted out of Perth yesterday after the suicide of Mick Jagger’s girlfriend L’Wren Scott, with Keith Richards consoling his “soul brother” and vowing they will be back on stage soon.

Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood were seen leaving their hotel while Richards was spotted walking up the steps of the band’s private plane, emblazoned with their trademark red tongue. In their first comments since the former model, 49, was found hanging at her New York apartment on Monday, the band said they were shocked and pulling together to help the lead singer, 70.

“No-one saw this coming... Mick’s always been my soul brother and we love him,” Richards, his song-writing partner for more than 50 years, said in a statement. “We really hate to disappoint our fans but we’ll see everyone really soon.”

The Stones on Tuesday postponed their 14 On Fire tour of Australia and New Zealand.
