<\/p>\n

Quincy Jones <\/strong>\u00a0enjoyed a booming career as a top-tier music and film producer with more than 60 years in the business. Born in Chicago in 1933, the late multifaceted artist rose through the ranks in the music industry after dropping out of Berklee College of Music in Boston and starting his touring career. By 1964, he was named a vice president of Mercury Records, making him the first Black man to hold such a heavy position at a white-owned record company, per the American Academy of Achievement<\/a>. To date, he has 28 Grammy<\/a> awards to his name, one Emmy<\/a>, and seven Oscar nominations. Plus, he has worked with some of the biggest names of all time, such as Michael Jackson<\/strong><\/a> and Frank Sinatra<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Quincy also enjoyed a bustling private life. He was married three times and had seven children<\/a> between five women. So, who are the women who once held they key to the music industry icon\u2019s heart? Read on to learn about Quincy Jones\u2019 three previous wives.<\/p>\n

Jeri Caldwell<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Actress Jeri Caldwell<\/strong> and Quincy Jones<\/strong> were married between 1957 and 1966 and welcomed one child, a daughter named Jolie<\/strong>, together. Jeri has one acting credit<\/a> to her name, for an appearance in 1994\u2019s Naked Gun 33 1\/3: The Final Insult<\/em>. There is not much known about their relationship due to it being more than 50 years ago, but Quincy did once reveal how they got together in high school during an interview<\/a> with Oprah Winfrey<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cJeri hit on me first. Back then I was dogging it up, and Jeri and her sister were the hotsy-totsies at school,\u201d he recalled. \u201cI noticed that she stopped at the water fountain every day \u2014 the dog squad is real good at noticing patterns. My daughters have since taught me that guys think their rap is so strong that women can\u2019t resist \u2014 but that\u2019s not it: A girl has a guy spotted a year before he even knows she\u2019s there!\u201d<\/p>\n

Quincy was 19 years old when he married Jeri, but admitted she wasn\u2019t his first true love \u2014 just the first love he married.<\/p>\n

Ulla Andersson<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Quincy married Swedish model and actress Ulla Andersson<\/strong> one year after his divorce from Jeri was finalized. They welcomed a daughter, Martina<\/strong>, and a son, Quincy III<\/strong>, during their union. Sadly, their marriage was over within years and was finalized in 1974 so Quincy could go on to marry his third wife, Peggy Lipton<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Aside from being a successful magazine model, Ulla dipped her feet into acting and even music. Her debut album, No Time No Space No Age No Race That\u2019s Nifty!<\/em>, was released in 1979. In 2007, she <\/span>released an\u00a0autobiography called <\/span>Red Carpet Blues<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n

Peggy Lipton<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Peggy Lipton, an American actress, model, and singer known for appearing in Mission Impossible<\/em> and Twin Peaks<\/em>, was Quincy\u2019s longest marriage, as they walked down the aisle in 1974 and divorced in1989. By the time they tied the knot, they had already welcomed a daughter, Kidada<\/strong>. The most famous offspring of Quincy is the second daughter he welcomed with Peggy in 1976: actress Rashida Jones<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Although Quincy has not spoken much about their union, he had nothing but praises to sing about Peggy when she died in May 2019. \u201cThere is absolutely no combination of words that can express the sadness I feel after losing my beloved Peggy Lipton\u2026.My wife of 14 years,\u201d he wrote on Instagram<\/a> alongside a slideshow of old pictures with her.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe shared many, many beautiful memories, & most importantly, we share two incredible daughters\u2026Pie (@kidadajonesog) & Doonkie (@rashidajones),\u201d he continued. \u201cRegardless of the paths that our lives took us on, I can say with the utmost certainty, that love is eternal. Thank you all for the love & support you\u2019ve shown me & my family.\u201d<\/p>\n

Did Quincy Have a Girlfriend Before He Died?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Quincy was not married when he died, but his love life made headlines. In 2018, he revealed he had 22 girlfriends during an interview with GQ<\/em><\/a>. He then listed where they\u2019re all from. \u201cEverywhere. Cape Town. Cairo. Stockholm \u2014 she\u2019s coming in next week. Brazil \u2014 Belo Horizonte, S\u00e3o Paulo, and Rio. Shanghai \u2014 got a great girl over there from Shanghai, man. Cairo, whew,\u201d he boasted at the time.<\/p>\n

He also noted that his girlfriends were all aware of each other. \u201cI don\u2019t lie. And it\u2019s amazing \u2014 women get it, man,\u201d he said. \u201cDon\u2019t you ever forget they\u2019re 13 years smarter than we are. Don\u2019t you ever forget it.\u201d<\/p>\n
