The Rolling Stones’ legendary guitarist, Keith Richards, has become a grandfather once more. His youngest daughter, Alexandra Richards, and her husband, Jacques Naudé, have welcomed their second child, a baby boy named Elvis Nova Naudé.
Alexandra Richards Announces Son’s Arrival
Alexandra, 38, shared the news on Instagram with a short but heartfelt message: “4,3,2,1. Love bomb drop. Jacques and I welcomed our son to the world 2/17/25. Elvis Nova Naudé.” She sprinkled the announcement with star emojis, adding to the celebratory tone.
The couple also posted intimate black-and-white photos of their newborn. One particularly touching image showed Jacques holding baby Elvis while the infant’s tiny hand rested on his father’s chest. Another picture was a close-up of the sleeping newborn, capturing a peaceful moment in the family’s new chapter.
A Growing Family
Elvis is Alexandra and Jacques’ second child. Their daughter, Arlowe Mae, is now three years old, making this a family of four. Alexandra captioned another post with a poetic sentiment: “Our long winter’s wait is over. Soaking in all these delicious moments together. #generationbeta #3become4.”
Despite being the daughter of rock royalty, Alexandra has kept her personal life relatively private. Keith Richards himself has also maintained a low profile when it comes to his family, though he has spoken warmly about them in past interviews.
A Love Story That Led to Parenthood
Alexandra, a model and DJ, met Jacques Naudé, a photographer and filmmaker, through mutual friends. Their romance blossomed, leading to an engagement during a trip to Turks and Caicos.
They tied the knot in the fall of 2019 in an intimate ceremony at her parents’ home in Connecticut. The wedding, infused with nature-inspired elements, was held at a place deeply meaningful to Alexandra. She once described weekends there as filled with “cooking, making fires, creating, playing games, dancing, and reading.”
Keith Richards’ Expanding Legacy
Keith Richards, 81, has five children from his relationships with model Anita Pallenberg and his wife, Patti Hansen. His eldest children—Marlon, Tara (who passed away as an infant), and Angela—were from his relationship with Pallenberg. With Hansen, he has two daughters, Theodora and Alexandra.
Richards has spoken affectionately about his family, describing them as a tightly-knit unit. In a 2010 interview, he said: “I love my families. I have several—extended. And they all love each other. I’m extremely blessed with my ladies who all, thank God, get along.”
Now, with the arrival of baby Elvis, the Richards family tree continues to grow, proving that even rock and roll legends find their greatest joys in family life.
