Shirley Ann Shepherd Watts, the wife of late Rolling Stones<\/a> drummer Charlie Watts, died on Friday, Dec. 16. She was 84.<\/p>\n

“Shirley died peacefully<\/a> on Friday 16th December in Devon after a short illness surrounded by her family,” her family announced on Monday.<\/p>\n

Charlie and Shirley met before he joined the legendary band and were together for more than 50 years before his death in 2021.<\/p>\n

Ronnie Wood shared a tribute to Shirley on Facebook, and wrote, “Sally and I are very sad to hear about the death of our friend Shirley Watts. We will miss you so much, but take comfort that you are reunited with your beloved Charlie.”<\/p>\n

He added, “Our thoughts and prayers are with their daughter Seraphina, granddaughter Charlotte, and son-in-law Barry, much love to you all at this very sad time.”<\/p>\n

Shirley and Charlie, who died in August 2021, were married for 57 years. Keith Richards revealed in March 2022 that his late bandmate died after a long battle with cancer.<\/p>\n

Watts is said to have harbored one regret about his life in the limelight.<\/p>\n

“The one regret I have of this life is that I was never home enough,” Watts once said about his wife of nearly 60 years, Shirley Shepherd, according to Vulture. “But she always says when I come off tour that I am a nightmare and tells me to go back out.”<\/p>\n

Watts also wrote in “According to the Rolling Stones”<\/a> that his wife was an even bigger fan of his band than he ever was.<\/p>\n

“My wife and daughter may come out on tour, but Shirley’s always had other things outside of this band,” he wrote. “She’s a great fan of the Stones, though. I’m not; it’s what I do. Mick and Keith and Ronnie are my friends and the band is a very good one, but that’s it. But Shirley actually plays our records. I don’t.”<\/p>\n

Charlie was a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame<\/a> and Modern Drummer Hall of Fame and was widely regarded to be one of the greatest rock drummers of all time.<\/p>\n
