Mick Jagger’s model and fashion designer girlfriend L’Wren Scott was found hanging by a scarf in her Manhattan apartment on Monday.
Her body was found by her assistant on the eighth-floor apartment at 200 11th Ave. around 10:00 a.m. The unidentified assistant was responding to a text message by Scott sent around 8:30 a.m. saying, “Come by,” police sources said, the New York Post reported.
There was no suicide note found and police say they do not suspect foul play.
A spokesman for Mr. Jagger said the singer was “completely shocked and devastated” with the news. He had reportedly been dating Scott since 2001.
A fashion source told the Post that he or she “knew something was wrong” when Scott canceled her London Fashion Week show at the last minute.
“That would have been so important to her. She was very prolific on Instagram and recently had gone quiet and hadn’t been posting so much,” the source said.
