GQ writes that Keith Richards has spent lockdown at his home in Connecticut with Patti Hansen and their two daughters. He told BBC's "Desert Island Discs" that in his older age he's become more of a family man. "I watch other people rebel now," he said. Speaking about his past image he said, "I like the way that people sort of cotton on to him and say, 'Go for it'. It's one part of me and a lot of that's in the past. I'm growing up or rather, evolving. I suppose with grandchildren is when you suddenly realize that you are in for the long haul."
Cheat Sheet notes that Richards' family is large. In addition to his adult children, he has five grandchildren. His oldest son, Marlon has three children. Similarly, his oldest daughter, Angela, has two children, and according to daughter Alexandra's Instagram account another grandbaby is on the way! Richards certainly realizes his good fortune and according to Cheat Sheet, dedicated his children's book to his grandchildren because, "the bond, the special bond, between kids and grandparents is unique and should be treasured."
He opened up about family in another interview with GQ, reflecting on his children's lives. "I don't care how cool and hip and whatever you think you are," he said, "You get down the line, baby, what counts is family. This is what I did it for."
