How did Mick Hucknall simply bed so many women? What happened to the unlikely top lothario of the 90s who boasted of 'three lovers every day' despite being 'not a very good-looking guy'


Mick Hucknell was famed for his Lothario status, with a roster of lovers into the thousands and some of the world's most beautiful women amongst his exes.

Yet Simply Red frontman Mick Hucknall's roster of exes reads like a who's who of some of the world's most beautiful women, including a relationship with Catherine Zeta-Jones in 1998, a short-lived romance with Ulrika Jonsson and liaisons with model Helena Christensen, Melanie Sykes, Lady Victoria Hervey, and Steffi Graf. Another of his notable romances was with former ' EastEnders' actress Martine McCutcheon, who claims that the pair went on a disastrous date in 1996 that ended with her vomiting in his dreadlocks - a story Mick has furiously denied as a 'sad little fantasy'. His Lothario image made its way back into the limelight this week after it was reported Simply Red's new concert film comes with a few warnings from the British Board of Classification, despite being rated a U, meaning it's suitable for everyone.
