The 38-year-old beauty, who is pregnant with the 68-year-old Rolling Stone's twin girls, can't understand why people get uptight by their 30-year age difference.

She said: "I'm staggered at how incredibly rude people feel they can be about Ronnie and about me, based purely on physical appearances. I know how to deal with it now, but I'm still amazed."

And Sally - who fell pregnant in December - also pointed out that she's "not blind" to what people think, and that his age does cross her mind.

She said: "Do I think about Ronnie's age? Of course I do. His Auntie Mary lived to be over 100 years old. There are good genes in his family. But I'm not blind to the whole thing."

Meanwhile, Sally revealed Ronnie's nickname for their unborn baby girls and said he refers to them as "lower deck and upper deck" because in a scan they were on top of each other.

She told the Daily Telegraph newspaper: "He calls them upper and lower deck, because they were on top of each other like bunk beds. He carries around pictures of the scans and has them in his dressing room."

And on whether she thinks her husband will cope with being surrounded by a house full of ladies, she joked that the 'Satisfaction' guitarist said he was born in a ward of girls so he's used to being in female company.

She added: "He says that when he was born in the hospital ward, he was one boy among seven girls , so he's always been happy around the female of the species. He's delighted, he's absolutely thrilled."

Ronnie and Sally's twins will be their first children together. He has four kids from previous relationships.
