English musician Jeff Beck’s house was a Grade-II historic country estate known as Riverhall, near the affluent community of Wadhurst, East Sussex. Though he lived with his second wife, Sandra Cash, Beck famously hosted American actor Johnny Depp frequently in the later years of his life, while Depp faced court battles amidst his divorce from Amber Heard.
Jeff Beck’s net worth was $20 million. Though he was an eight-time Grammy award winner and a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, he never achieved the same level of commercial success as many of his peers.
Jeff Beck was born in Wallington, Surrey, in 1944. He first heard an electric guitar at age six when he heard a Les Paul performance on the radio. He began learning to play on a borrowed guitar as a teenager and started playing in bands while attending Wimbledon College of Art. In 1965, Beck was recruited to replace Eric Clapton as the guitarist for the band The Yardbirds, based on the recommendation of Jimmy Page, who he had known since his teen years. Though he only recorded one full-length album in his 20-month tenure with the Yardbirds, it was one of the Yardbirds most successful albums. He was ultimately fired for his temper and frequent no-shows.
After The Yardbirds, Beck formed the Jeff Beck Group with Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood. The band released two albums before breaking up. He continued to record music and tour throughout his life, with some of his last music being that he was working on with Depp.
Jeff Beck was married twice, first to Patricia Brown from 1963-67. He married Cash in 2005 and remained with her till his death from bacterial meningitis in 2023. He had no children.
