Rock stars like David Bowie and Harry Styles prove that being a superstar warrants having a girlfriend that's just as super, and many couple up with those of the model variety. Beyond their careers, both musicians and supermodels have dating histories that are often thrust into the public eye—whether they intended to or not. From the sweetest pairs to the downright controversial, L’OFFICIEL looks at the most notable rock star-model couples in history.

During the Swinging ‘60s era, The Beatles’ George Harrison and model Pattie Boyd were an It couple. After a rocky marriage, the two divorced in 1977. Two years later, in 1979, Boyd married guitarist Eric Clapton, who was friends with Harrison.
Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger began a relationship with model Jerry Hall in 1977. By 1990, the two unofficially married in a private ceremony in Bali. They had four children together–Elizabeth Scarlett, James Leroy, Georgia May, and Gabriel Luke–but their relationship ultimately ended in 1999 and their marriage was annulled.
After appearing in Billy Joel’s “Uptown Girl” music video, Christie Brinkley married the musician in 1985. Even after their divorce in 1994, the two remained friends.
During the ‘90s, Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose and model Stephanie Seymour became an item, but it didn’t last. By 1993, the briefly engaged couple’s intense yet tumultuous relationship publicly fell apart.
Pop star David Bowie met Iman in 1990. The music icon has claimed it was love at first sight, and it was indeed the beginning of an enduring relationship. The notoriously private pair married in 1992 and stayed together until Bowie’s passing in 2016.
Supermodel Kate Moss and musician Pete Doherty’s short-lived relationship was controversial as the Libertines band member had a bad-boy reputation. After meeting in 2005, the two had an on-and-off relationship until they were briefly engaged in 2007.
A few years after meeting each other, Jack White and Karen Elson married in 2005—with White’s ex-wife Meg White as the maid of honor. Despite bitterly splitting in 2011, the model and musician’s divorce was finalized in 2013.
Model Lily Aldridge met her husband, Kings of Leon frontman, Caleb Followill at Coachella in 2007. The couple had a private wedding ceremony in 2011 and have two kids together.
In 2013, the Internet went crazy over Harry Styles and Kendall Jenner’s relationship. The two rekindled their romance in 2015 and their on-and-off-again relationship still remains a mystery. While the two don’t seem to be dating right now, the exes remain good friends.
Model Cara Delevingne and musician St. Vincent were secretly dating in 2014, with news of the couple’s relationship status breaking the following year. The two were always pictured as a lovey-dovey pair, but in 2016, the couple split.
