Kim McLagan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kim McLagan, née Tutsónote Patricia Kerrigan, (born Leicester, Leicestershire, United Kingdom, December 30, 1948; died August 2, 2006, Travis County, Texas) was a model during the 1960s. She later became a cosmetologist. She is known for being Keith Moon's suffering wife. Young Patti (Tutsy) Kerrigan grew up in Malaysia, on her family's rubber plantation. She also lived in Uganda and other African countries. When her family moved back to London, she began her modelling career, and changed her name to Kim Kerrigan to avoid confussion with fellow model Pattie Boyd. She met Keith Moon, drummer with The Who at a concert in Bournemouth. The couple married in March 1966, after Kim became pregnant. Their daughter Amanda Jane (Mandy) was born four months later. The marriage was a turbulent one. Moon forced Kim to give up her modelling career, and was often violently abusive with her, and they weren't really in love.[1] She left him in 1973 and the couple were divorced in 1975. Moon was dating Annette Walter-Lax since 1974. She married her second husband, Ian McLagan of The Faces, on October 9, 1978,[2] one month after Moon's death. The McLagans moved to Texas in 1994. Kim McLagan worked for several years at a spa resort on Lake Austin before opening her own skin care salon on Highway 71 between Bastrop and Smithville, Texas. She died on August 2, 2006 in a traffic accident in Travis County, Texas, aged 57. Her car was hit by a truck. She was pronounced dead at the scene. [3]
