Mick Jagger has opened up about L’Wren Scott’s death for the first time since her suicide in March, saying he’s doing “okay”.

He admits that he coped with the news of her death by touring with his band and working on Get On Up, a new movie about soul icon James Brown, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

“I’m doing okay. It’s a difficult, very hard year, but I got back into it by working on touring with the Stones in Europe and doing other things including doing this great movie,” Jagger said.

“I am still struggling to understand how my lover and best friend could end her life in this tragic way,” he added.

L’Wren Scott was found dead in her Manhattan apartment earlier this year.
