Meet Theodora Richards, Keith Richards’ daughter. See photos, video and a biography of the fashion model daughter of the legendary Rolling Stones guitarist.
Theodora Richards, variously known as Theo Richards, is in the news today because her size zero figure raises eyebrows. Appearing in a bikini on a beach in Miami, the 23-year-old fashion model is thin, but she has always been thin. What is unusual is that she is rarely photographed in a bikini, and when she is, she makes headlines all around the world.
In an interview conducted when she was 17 years old and appeared in Vogue, she famously cautioned young women against wearing skimpy clothing. ‘You have to have some respect for your body,’ she said.
As a biography, Theodora Richards was born on born March 18, 1985 in London, England so her age is 23. Her full name is Theodora Dupree Richards and she is sometimes known as Theo Richards. She has blond hair and brown eyes. Her measurements are 34-23-34 and she is 5′7-1/2″ tall. She is the daughter of Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards and former model and actress Patti Hansen. She has a sister, Alexandra Richards, who is a year younger and also a fashion model.
In 2002, when she was 16 years old, Theodora Richards, her sister, Alexandra Richards, and Elizabeth Jagger (daughter of Rolling Stones rock legend Mick Jagger and his fashion model wife, Jerry Hall) appeared in an iconic Tommy Hilfiger ad campaign.
She has had a steady modeling career ever since. In 2004, she was on the cover of British Nylon, with the legendary Bianca Jagger, former wife of Mick Jagger. She has also graced the cover several magazines, including Italian Glamour, Italian D, French Madame Figaro, Rolling Stone, and Tatler. She has been photographed by legendary photographers Annie Leibowitz (for Ann Taylor) and Mario Testino (for Burberry).
In 2006, she became the model and muse for 4 Stroke, New York City premium denim collection, whose clothing items are each named after a legendary rock venue. Her official title at the company is Vice President of Creative Direction. Richards was selected as she has been long known for her ‘rock chic’ fashion style.
In addition to being a fashion model, Theodora Richards is also a visual artist, self-taught in painting and drawing.
In an interview, she described her own brand of ironic rebellion, against societal expectations of celebrity offspring.
‘My dad’s generation was all about rebellion. I’m rebelling against my generation in a softer way,’ she once said.
‘Many of the kids around me just want to go out and party, but I don’t. I’m not a big fan of drugs.
Here are several photos of the fashion model. More photos and a video of Theodora Richards, Keith Richards’ daughter are below.
