As the world continues to mourn the loss of musical icon Jeff Beck, the attention has turned to his widow, Sandra Cash. Sandra Cash and her husband were married for many years, and the former was often photographed supporting her husband at public appearances.

In his biography, Jeff Beck revealed his wife was a beautiful model when they met. Johnny Depp also sang Sandra Cash's praises and shared she and her husband were there for the "Pirates of the Caribbean" star during his infamous court battle with Amber Heard.

Facts about Sandra Cash

While Cash has chosen a life out of the public eye since marrying her husband, his biography, "Hot Wired Guitar: The Life of Jeff Beck," reveals she was a "head-turning, blue-eyed blonde" model when the couple first met.

Despite their significant age gap, Cash and Beck had much in common — from sharing the same sense of humor to a love for fine art, as Cash was an amateur painter.

Earlier this year, a message on behalf of Jeff Beck's family released the saddening news that he had passed away.

When they married, the couple had been together for a while and said "I do" during a "tasteful" ceremony that stars like Paul McCartney attended. Little is known about their life after that. However, actor Johnny Depp revealed he lived with Cash and her husband during his highly-publicized legal battle with Amber Heard and shared:

"There's a couple who very much helped to keep me alive and sane and happy through the weirdness… and that's Jeff and Sandra."

Sandra Cash's Public Appearances with Her Husband

Before meeting Cash, Beck was not a fan of music industry events. However, thanks to his wife, the late guitarist warmed to the idea of public events, and, as a result, the couple were often spotted together.

In 2007, she wowed in a silk blue gown while at The MOJO Honours List awards with her husband, and a year later, the couple attended the Ronnie Scotts Awards in London. They were among the many faces at the National Magazine Company's 30 Days of Fashion and Beauty Gala in 2008 as well.

Cash and her husband sat side-by-side at the 53rd annual Grammy Awards in February 2011 in Los Angeles, and a few months later, Cash and her husband traveled to England for The Classic Rock 'n' Roll of Honour.

Earlier this year, a message on behalf of Jeff Beck's family released the saddening news that he had passed away. "After suddenly contracting bacterial meningitis, he peacefully passed away yesterday," the tweet read in part.

In addition to revealing the heart-wrenching news that Beck had died, the tweet announcing his death ended with a request for the guitarist's family's privacy to be respected during the difficult time.
