Jerry Hall and Bryan Ferry met when Jerry appeared as a mermaid on the cover of Roxy Music's album Siren. The blue paint they covered her in wouldn't come off so Bryan offered to take her back to his house claiming he would help her remove it. They started an affair and she moved into his Holland Park home. Five months later they were engaged. Jerry also appeared in Roxy Music videos for Let's Stick Together and The Price of Love. Sadly love wasn't to last for them and Jerry left Bryan for Mick Jagger at the end of 1977.
It's believed that Jerry was the subject of the Bryan Ferry song "Kiss and Tell" after she published details of their relationship in her memoir Tall Tales. Ferry has always refused to discuss their relationship in interviews.

Proving that he is a gentleman-and she is right he has aged well.always a favourite of mine-but who doesn't find him pretty fab.pgt
Absolutely! He's always been fantastic at any age. xx
That was the first Album I owned.. I love Bryan Ferry and I though they were just magical together such a beautiful couple.. and they have both aged well x
Great images.
I have always thought he was incredibly sexy...in a suave way. She stood have stuck with him...Mick Jagger has never turned me on in the least.
I could listen to Roxy Music all day.
Great photos, Christina!
I would have taken Bryan Ferry over Mick Jagger any day. Mick Jagger has never done anything for me.
Bryan Ferry is a beautiful looking chap, he was a teacher before he was in Roxy, that would have made me much more interested in school!
I bet she's kicking herself now. The man is a god
I styled Kiss and Tell. Jesus.
