‘Happy birthday to my beautiful Gemini girls’: Earlier this week, Ronnie and his wife shared adorable photos with their twin daughters to mark their 7th birthday
Earlier this week, Ronnie and his wife Sally shared adorable photos with their twin daughters to mark their 7th birthday.
The veteran Rolling Stones guitarist looked every inch the doting dad as he smiled alongside Gracie and Alice.
The twins were all smiles as they donned matching yellow t-shirts and colourful party hats while blowing out their candles.
He also shared a throwback picture of the twins as babies, with the caption: ‘Happy birthday to my beautiful Gemini girls, Gracie Jane and Alice Rose – 7 years old today!’
Meanwhile, Sally wrote: ‘My heart could burst! Happy 7th birthday Alice & Gracie ~ we love you so much ❤️❤️ what an adventure so far xxx Thank you for all your lovely messages to the girls.’
Ronnie married Sally, the owner of a theatre production company, in December 2012 before announcing they had twins on the way in December.
Sally has previously discussed the attraction she felt towards Ronnie and how their romance works so well.
She told The Telegraph: ‘He’s on my level completely. He’s a very nice and caring person. Oh God, don’t use the word ‘nice’, it’s so boring. He’s very funny, kind and affectionate and welcoming.’

Discussing their age gap, she said: ‘Um, well, I know (the age gap’s) there. And I wish it wasn’t, but it is. I think I had to say: ‘I can’t do this because of the age.’
‘Or I just had to let it go and take it all on board. At no point, years ago, did I say to myself: ‘I think I’ll go out with someone twice my age’, but that is what has happened.’
Ronnie has been through a few romantic rollercoasters of his own, but his marriage to Sally has been notably calm and settled.
The guitarist quit smoking after undergoing treatment for lung cancer in 2017 and has been sober since 2010.
Wood has four other children – Jesse, 46, with first wife Krissy Findlay, and 44-year-old Leah and Tyrone, 39, with ex-wife Jo. He also adopted Jo’s son Jamie, 48.
