Sir Tom Jones is widowed, not newly married.**
Sir Tom Jones was born on **June 7, 1940**, making him 84 years old as of 2025 ([The UBJ][1]). He was married to his high school sweetheart, **Melinda “Linda” Rose Woodward**, from **March 1957** until her death in **April 2016** after a short but intense illness. Since then, there has been **no credible confirmation** that he remarried.
**2. No evidence supports the “secret mansion ceremony”.**
The narrative of a clandestine wedding in a mansion with an undisclosed bride appears to originate from speculative outlets like *American Enigmas* or *Celebrity24h*—neither of which cite verifiable sources or direct statements from Tom himself ([americanenigmas.com][2]). In contrast, reputable sources report that after Linda’s passing he sold their Los Angeles home and moved back to the UK, living simply in a London flat.
**3. Tom Jones has publicly maintained he has no plans to wed again.**
In interviews over recent years, he has described Linda as *“the one love of my life”*, expressed no intention of remarriage, and emphasized his grief and focus on legacy instead of romance
**4. More recent news concerns health, not nuptials.**
The most current—verified—headlines into mid‑2025 concern health issues, such as postponing a concert in Germany due to an upper respiratory infection; **nothing about marriage ceremonies
