- Kim McLagan (née Maryse Elizabeth Patricia Kerrigan; 30 December 1948 - 2 August 2006[2]) was a British model during the 1960s. She was married to The Who's Keith Moon from 1966 to 1975, and to The Small Faces and The Faces' Ian McLagan from 1978 to her death.
Kerrigan, known as "Patsy" during her youth, was born in Leicester. After spending her childhood in Malaysia, Uganda and Tanganika, her parents were concerned about her education, so she was enrolled in an Irish Catholic convent school in Bray, Wicklow. She had an unhappy experience there and attempted to run away on several occasions, before settling in Bournemouth at the end of 1963.
After starting work as a hairdresser, Kerrigan met Marie Fraser, who ran a local modeling agency and school known as the Dawn Academy. She decided to join this, and upon doing so was asked if she would change her name, due to the perceived similarity to the then popular model, Pattie Boyd. She decided to go with the name Kim.
It was through Kerrigan's work with the Dawn Academy that she was told about The Who, and was persuaded to see them at the local Bournemouth club, Le Disque a Go! Go!, where she met Keith Moon. She started dating Moon at the beginning of 1965. Moon was fond of telling how he and Rod Stewart were both dating Kim at the same time and only discovered the fact when they took the same train from London to Bournemouth to see her. "I showed Rod a picture of Kim and he said, 'Yeah, that's 'er,'" Moon related. In late 1965, Kerrigan discovered she was pregnant with Moon's child. Consequently, she married Moon on 17 March 1966 at Brent Registry Office, and their daughter Amanda ("Mandy") was born on 12 July. The marriage was turbulent; Moon denied he was married and a father to the music press on several occasions, insisted his wife end her modeling career while taking up modeling for Vidal Sassoon himself, and became violent and abusive towards her.
She left Moon in 1973, taking Mandy with her, after concluding his increasingly out-of-control behavior could not be moderated. She shortly afterwards started a relationship with Ian McLagan, and divorced Moon in 1975, marrying McLagan on 9 October 1978, one month after Moon's death. The couple moved to Texas in 1994. Kim McLagan worked for several years at a spa resort on Lake Austin before opening her own aromatherapy and cosmetics business. McLagan died on 2 August 2006 in a traffic accident in Travis County, Texas, aged 57. Her car was hit by a truck and she was pronounced dead at the scene. - Art Department
