London, October 06: Rock star and businessman Gene Simmons has admitted that he is a great womaniser who has slept with as many as 4,800 women.
When asked if he has really slept with 4,600 women the rock legend replied, “It’s not true. It’s 4,800.”
Despite his extensive womanising, Gene married his girlfriend of 28 years, Shannon Tweed, at the Beverly Hills Hotel on October 1.
The Kiss star and the former Playboy Playmate have a son Nick, 22, and daughter Sophie, 19, but he is pleased he has resisted marriage until now.
“At 62 it really is time to think about that. Shannon and I have been together 28 years and she”s put up with a lot of crap. The nature of man is to wander,” the Sun quoted him as saying.
“But the rubber band will only stretch so far and either you want to be with someone you”re crazy about or you prefer being on your own.
“I’ve always been anti-marriage for men until they become mature. As a species we don”t mature until we”re in our 60s. The biggest financial pitfall in life is divorce. And the biggest reason for divorce is marriage,” he added.
