Mick Jagger back in Los Angeles for girlfriend L'Wren Scott's funeral

Mick Jagger has returned to Los Angeles to prepare for his girlfriend L'Wren Scott's funeral.

A representative for the grieving singer said that Jagger has arrived in Los Angeles in order to be with members of his family, and will be joined by his children whilst he makes arrangements for Scott's funeral, reports New York Post.

Privacy for him and his family during this very difficult time is requested, she added.

Earlier this week, the 70-year-old Rolling Stones legend had shut himself in his hotel room after learning of his girlfriend's death.

It is said that he flew out separately from his band members, who had stayed with him after cancelling their tour in Australia.

Scott's body has been taken to the Frank E. Campbell Funeral and arrangements for the funeral are yet been to be announced.
