The way I am reading this is he is that firstly he is sorry for being unfaithful to whoever he was with at the time - ok I get that.

But I am finding this a little creepy on other levels because I think if you apologise to your groupies, it implies you think you were taking advantage of them at the time? Or is it that he misled them all into thinking they were his only partner (at a rate of 3 a day, that'd be hard to do).

(please MN lawyers note I am not saying that Mick Hucknall has done anything wrong...)

DP reckons I am overthinking this which is quite possible Grin

Sounds to me like he doesn't regret it in the least and is pretty pleased with himself - no need to mention numbers (a day or total) surely if the point is to attempt to make it up a bit to these women.

Just sounds like boasting to me.

And what sort of crap is this;

"He has blamed his womanising behaviour on being abandoned by his mother at the age of three. "

I hope that is just bad reporting.

ElspethDiggory you just made me snort my tea - I haven't heard anyone called a tool for ages.

As for the apology. Maybe he is just acknowledging he wasn't very good at it.

I guess statistically he must have had at least 1 or 2 mumsnetters.

Come on ladies, own up!!! Grin

1000 people wanted to sleep with Mick Hucknall!!! Shock

Ewwww - maybe they were drunk? Hmm

I am just gobsmacked that 1000 people would want to sleep with such a tool. I hate his music and he looks like he slept in a bin.
