Tom Jones, born Thomas John Woodward, is a legendary Welsh singer. His music career began in 1963 after he became the frontman for Tom Scott and the Senators, a Welsh beat group. The group did not take long to gain a local following and reputation in South Wales. Later, when Gordon Mills became his manager, it was he who named the singer “Tom Jones” to capitalise on the popularity of the Academy Award-winning 1963 film of the same name. After signing with Decca, Tom released his first single, Chills and Fever.
Some of Tom Jones’ other hits over the years include It’s Not Unusual, What’s New Pussycat?, She’s a Lady, Delilah, and Green, Green Grass of Home, to name a few. At present, Tom is in the spotlight after it was revealed that he will headline Belfast summer gigs. According to reports, Tom will play at the Palmerstown House in Naas, Co Kildare, on Sunday, August 9, 2026. With the spotlight on him, many have also started to wonder about the 85-year-old’s personal life. So without further ado, here’s everything we know about his 59-year marriage to his wife, Melinda Trenchard.
