L’Wren Scott Found Dead, Longtime Girlfriend Of Mick Jagger Reportedly Committed Suicide

Longtime girlfriend of Rollin Stones lead vocalist Mick Jagger and fashion designer L’Wren Scott was found dead due to an apparent suicide Monday morning

“A female 49 years of age was found unconscious and unresponsive” in an apartment that shares Scott’s address, an NYPD spokesperson said.

An official close to the investigation said her assistant found Scott hanging from a doorknob, but no note was found and there was no sign of foul play.

The NYPD said the body of L’Wren Scott was found around 10 a.m. and that “it does appear to be an apparent suicide, preliminarily.”

The spokesperson said the identity of the female would not be officially confirmed until the family had first been notified.

Scott was a fashion designer to celebrities and even First Lady Michelle Obama. Other clients included Nicole Kidman, Amy Adams and Penélope Cruz. A Utah-native, Scott first began designing clothing for her own tall, 6-foot 3 inch figure when she was a teenager. Through the years, she worked closely with some of the top names in fashion, including cosmetics mogul Bobbi Brown.

“I am devastated by the tragic news about L’Wren. She was a visionary designer who I very much enjoyed working with, but she was also smart and kind,” Brown stated. “My thoughts and heartfelt condolences go out to her loved ones during this very sad time.”

Scott canceled her London Fashion Week show this winter due to reported production delays.

L’Wren and Mick Jagger began dating in 2001, and Jagger is currently touring with his band in Australia, where he tweeted from just four hours ago, “Great to be back In Australia! Looking forward to the first show in Perth.” That tweet has since been deleted.

The Jagger camp had no further comment.
