Mick Jones rose to stardom as the guitarist for the British-American rock band Foreigner. But, he isn't the only star in his relationship.

Mick, 81, is married to socialite and writer Ann Dexter-Jones. And the famous couple's legacy lives on through their mega-talented stepchildren who completely took over the music industry.

Mick Jones and Ann Dexter-Jones's touch and go relationship

The Foreigner guitarist met Ann soon after she divorced her first husband, Laurence Ronson. The couple fell in love instantly, but due to Ann's precarious situation, they didn't tie the knot for a few years. After their marriage in 1985, Mick and Ann welcomed two children, son Alexander and daughter Annabelle.

During the early 2000s, the couple split after Mick's alcohol addiction worsened. Their divorce was finalized in 2007. Ten years later, with Mick living a sober life, he and Ann remarried and are still together today.

Ann Dexter-Jones' previous relationship

Before Ann met and fell in love with Mick, she was married to music producer and band manager Laurence Ronson. The two were friends with music legends Mick Jagger, Yoko Ono, and David Bowie.

Ann and Laurence had three children together – son Mark and daughters Samantha and Charlotte. The two's contentious divorce lasted several years, before she married Mick.

Ann Dexter-Jones is a jewelry designer

Ann is many things, including a reiki master and journalist. But she's probably best known for her high end jewelry line. She designs all of her pieces herself and uses materials like gold, stainless steel, and diamonds.

"My jewelry [fulfills me]," Ann said in a conversation with Costa Brazil. "I only work with things of beauty that I love. It doesn't have to be everybody else's taste, but I only create what I would actually get excited to wear myself."
