James Hetfield and His 16-Year-Younger Girlfriend

James Hetfield and his girlfriend have often been spotted together, including one occasion where she wore a black string bikini. For a day at the beach, Gillette embraced her natural beauty by going makeup-free and styling her dark chocolate-colored hair in a casual bun. She was joined by her 45-year-old boyfriend, fashion designer and former journalist Adriana Gillett. Hetfield, who started dating Gillett shortly after his divorce from his wife of 25 years, was seen enjoying a relaxed day with her on the sandy beach.

During their day by the sea, after a peaceful walk along the shore, the couple took a swim together. While swimming, they shared a warm embrace, tightly wrapping their arms around each other underwater.
