EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Jade Jagger, 51, packs in her day job as she gives up ... trends now
Sir Mick Jagger turns 80 in July, but he's still prancing round the stage with the Rolling Stones.
Yet, I hear that the singer's eldest child, Jade Jagger, is already giving up her career — at the tender age of 51.
Jade has been a designer of fine jewellery for three decades. However, yesterday she declared: 'Today is the first day I decided to stop working at jewellery. I think it will bring new light, new love and new opportunities.
'Thank you to all that supported me. Change is good.'
The news may come as a relief to Kate Moss, who received a necklace from Jade in 2002. When the supermodel inspected it closely, she was shocked to discover one word spelled out in decorative stones: 'SLAG'.
Jade — whose mother is Sir Mick's first (and only) wife Bianca — had been going out for two years with Dan Macmillan, the louche model son of the Earl of Stockton, when she reportedly discovered that he had also been enjoying a relationship with Moss, 49.

Macmillan was said to have cancelled a romantic weekend away with Jade at the Cipriani Hotel in Venice, owing to a 'work commitment'. However, a friend then reported back to Jade that Macmillan and Moss were spied heading up to a room together at that very same Italian hotel.
Jade turned her passion for 'bohemian aesthetic, one-of-a-kind jewellery pieces' into a business, setting up Jade Incorporated in the 1990s.
She began working as the creative director of Garrard, the former Crown jeweller, in 2001. She created the 'Jagger Dagger', a sword with an 18-carat white gold hilt studded with 12 carats of brilliant-cut diamonds, 42 pale sapphires, and inlaid with a central blue lapis lazuli square.
Her creations have been worn by famous names including model Cara Delevingne and pop star Rita Ora. In 2018, she released a collection called Madonna, dedicated entirely to the queen of pop.
With her snobbish put-downs, Dame Maggie Smith was a scary figure as the matriarch of the Crawley family in Downton Abbey.
In real life, the actress, 88, could be just as intimidating.
For Sue Johnston, 79, who played the Dowager Countess of Grantham's lady's maid Miss Denker, admits: 'I couldn't think of a thing to say to Maggie Smith. Scared? I was frightened to death of her!'
