Is monogamy a thing of the past for some of our favorite stars? For Andrew Ridgeley, it seems the answer might be a resounding yes. The Wham! icon has recently revealed a more fluid approach to relationships, suggesting a departure from traditional monogamy.
Andrew John Ridgeley, the British singer-songwriter best known as one half of the iconic 80s duo Wham!, alongside the late George Michael, has always captivated the public, not only with his musical talent but also with his personal life. Born on January 26, 1963, in Windlesham, Surrey, England, Ridgeley's background is as diverse as his musical tastes, with a Scottish mother, Jennifer Ridgeley, and a father, Alberto Ridgeley (originally Zacharia), who had Italian and Egyptian roots. The Netflix documentary "Wham!" has recently offered viewers a deeper insight into the careers and personal dynamics of George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley, rekindling interest in their enduring friendship and musical legacy. The documentary also sheds light on the contributions of their backup singers and dancers, Pepsi and Shirlie, who were integral to the Wham! experience. But beyond the music and the memories, it's Ridgeley's romantic life that continues to intrigue many, particularly his long-term relationship with Keren Woodward of Bananarama fame.
