Former supermodel and wife of a Rolling Stone, Jerry Hall, has shocked the world media by sparking up a new relationship with a man who chauffeured her to a book festival.

The Texas-born 54-year-old counts cricketer Shane Warne, singer Bryan Ferry and Rolling Stone’s Mick Jagger, with whom she has four children, amongst her previous partners, so the news that she’s now dating a chartered surveyor is quite unexpected.

Phillip Ferguson and Jerry first met when he chauffeured her from her home in London to the Hay-on-Wye book festival. Ferguson, who is reportedly in his mid-50’s, lives near the Arts and Literature event and often offers his services to chauffeur guests to the festival.

The pair were said to have hit it off as Phillip played chauffeur on the 4 ½ road journey when he transported Hall from her home in London to the small market town in Powys, Wales.

In a recent interview, the 6ft actress opened up about her new mysterious man, describing him as “the one” although she refused to reveal this identity. However photographs have now emerged of the model and Phillip Ferguson, enjoying a sunny break in the south of France where Jerry has a holiday home.

Neighbour of Ferguson living in the quiet village of Cusop are surprised at the news that he’s now dating Jerry Hall.
