..he had a big wallet back in the day 

Mick Hucknall, the lead singer of Simply Red, is the 80's rocker who famously claimed to have slept with 3,000 women during his peak fame.

Background on the Claim
Mick Hucknall, known for his distinctive voice and hits like "Holding Back the Years," rose to fame in the 1980s with his band Simply Red. In a 2010 interview, he mentioned that during the height of his career, particularly between 1985 and 1987, he was sleeping with about three women a day. This led to the sensational claim that he had slept with over 3,000 women.

Hucknall's Response
In recent interviews, Hucknall has addressed this claim, stating that it was taken "wildly out of context." He described his past lifestyle as that of a "kid in a sweet shop" who was overwhelmed by his success and the attention he received. He later clarified that he did not keep track of the number of women he had been with and expressed regret over his past behavior, referring to it as an "addiction".

Personal Reflections
Hucknall has also reflected on his marriage to Gabriella Wesberry, which began in 2010, and how she has dealt with the rumors surrounding his past. He has expressed a sense of devotion to his family and a desire to move beyond his previous lifestyle.

In summary, while Mick Hucknall's claim of sleeping with 3,000 women has become a part of his public persona, he has since downplayed its accuracy and expressed a more mature perspective on his past.
