Noor Alfallah (born December 2, 1993) is a Kuwaiti-American film producer. Alfallah first came to public attention through her relationship with British rock star Mick Jagger, who is more than 50 years her senior. In the years that followed, she had several short-lived relationships with significantly older wealthy and famous men, which led to international media coverage and was sometimes the subject of controversy.
Alfallah is the daughter of a Kuwaiti businessman and an American mother. She grew up in a wealthy family in Los Angeles County in the affluent enclave of Beverly Hills and studied at the University of Southern California's Cinematic School of Arts and the renowned UCLA School of Film and Television.

Alfallah works in the media industry and is a producer and executive producer for several film and television productions. She was co-producer, along with five other people, of the film Little Death , starring David Schwimmer, which was presented at the Sundance Film Festival 2024. [2] In 2024, she produced the drama Billy Knight together with six other executive producers, with her ex-partner Al Pacino in the lead role. [3] [4]
Alfallah first came to public attention in 2017 through a reported brief relationship with musician Mick Jagger. [5] In the years that followed, Alfallah continued to attract considerable media attention due to her relationships with significantly older men. In 2018, she was in a relationship with 61-year-old billionaire Nicolas Berggruen. [5] She denied media reports of a relationship with US actor Clint Eastwood, calling the actor a "family friend". [5]
In 2022, Alfallah began a relationship with 82-year-old film actor Al Pacino and the couple had a son in 2023. [6] [7] Alfallah and Pacino ended their relationship in October 2024 but share custody of their son, with Alfallah still considering Pacino her "best friend". [5]
Alfallah's apparent preference for relationships with well-known men with unusually large age differences attracted considerable media interest worldwide. Outside the US, media outlets in Europe, India, East Asia, and the Arab world, among others, reported on Alfallah's relationships. [8] [9] [10] [11]
In particular, the decision to have another child together with Pacino, who is over 80, was the subject of some controversy. Commentators pointed out that children of fathers at such an advanced age have a higher risk of genetic defects and certain degenerative diseases. They also argued that the limited time such elderly fathers can spend with their children should be taken into consideration. On the other hand, it was argued that Alfallah's personal life choices should be respected. Older men can also be good fathers. Furthermore, an older partner, as exemplified by Al Pacino, can offer greater financial security. [12] [13] [14] [15]
