A lister: Despite her celebrity and wealth Jade Jagger is living in a one-bedroom housing association flat which is meant to be for people in 'social need'

She has the beauty, the creative talent, the double-A celebrity pedigree and plenty of cash. With her Rolling Stone father Mick worth a reported 200million-plus, Jade Jagger was raised in some of the most fashionable and desirable addresses in the world.

As the only child of Micks short and stormy marriage to Bianca her Nicaraguan model-turned-humanitarian mother Jade is the first to admit she was dealt a good hand in life.

But, as she once put it: I like to think Ive played it well.

Indeed, she has. Even though she has never had anything so humdrum as a day job, shrewd Jade, 41, has created quite a business empire with a jewellery firm, a clothing line, a design business and numerous suitably bohemian homes on three continents.

She is by no stretch of the imagination close to the breadline. Which is why its so surprising to learn she is now living in a one-bedroom housing association flat, situated under the Oxo Tower in South London, which is meant to be for people in social need.

When you consider that the 120-a-week rent is less than half the price of the very cheapest item in her jewellery collection (a small gold feather on a long cotton rope costing 245), its reasonable to question what business Jade has to be occupying such a residence.
