Ian Paice - Personal Life

Personal Life

Ian Paice is married and has three children: James, Emmy and Calli. His wife, Jacky, is the twin sister of Jon Lord's wife, Vicky. Paice lives with his family in the United Kingdom.

It had been rumored (and even mentioned by former Gillan guitarist Bernie Torme in an interview) that Paice has only one lung. In reality, he is only missing a portion of the lower lobe in his left lung, due to contracting a case of pneumonia when he was 6 years old that turned into tuberculosis.

He is almost always seen wearing sunglasses with blue (or occasionally green or purple)-tinted spectacle lenses.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    Life is not an easy matter.... You cannot live through it without falling into frustration and cynicism unless you have before you a great idea which raises you above personal misery, above weakness, above all kinds of perfidy and baseness.
    Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)

    We all come from our own little planets. That’s why we’re all different. That’s what makes life interesting.
    Robert E. Sherwood (1896–1955)
