Paul McCartney is the latest artist to pay tribute to British singer/actress and Rolling Stones muse Marianne Faithfull, who passed away Thursday at the age of 78.
“What sad news that Marianne Faithfull has passed away,” The Beatles star wrote on Instagram. “She came into my life in the Sixties and was a beautiful, sweet 17 year old who radiated innocent joy. Then through the years I was lucky enough to run into her and to become a life-long friend.”
“It’s very sad to think that I won’t be meeting her again but my memories of our encounters over the years will always bring me joy,” he continued. “May god bless you Marianne and guide you in the next steps of your journey.”
The sons of McCartney’s Beatles bandmate John Lennon also paid tribute to Faithfull on social media.
Sean Ono Lennon shared a picture of her with the caption “R.I.P.,” a heart emoji and “Miss You…,” while Julian Lennon called her “a uniquely special soul” and “one of a kind,” adding that she was “someone who truly did stand out among her contemporaries.”
