Simply Red frontman Mick Hucknall is a changed man from the heights of his fame – with a gorgeous wife and grown-up daughter, his playboy days are far behind him.

‘I would sleep with three women a day’
Simply Red frontman Mick Hucknall once boasted that he’d had “three lovers a day” during the band’s 1990s heyday. As well as that, he once said that he’s slept with around 3,000 women.
In 2010, he said: “Between 1985 and 1987, I would sleep with about three women a day.”
He also told The Sun in 2023: “I was just touring the world and being single, being a playboy, being a bachelor. I didn’t really know what I was doing, I was just having a good time.
“I think in your life it’s a good thing to have dimension, to have done lots of different things, to have lots of different experiences.”
However, that all changed when he met wife Gabriella Wesberry, 10 years his junior. They met in the 90s, and tied the knot in 2010. They have a grown-up daughter, Romy, together.
