A forthcoming book about the life of Freddie Mercury is set to shake up the entertainment industry, exposing the existence of his hidden daughter. Born in 1974, the child was conceived during an affair with a close friend’s wife while her husband was away on business. The woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, had no desire for abortion and gave birth to a baby girl, B.
Now 48 years old, B is living in Europe and working in the medical profession. She has shared her explosive story with renowned rock biographer Lesley-Ann Jones, who wrote “Love, Freddie”. The book reveals how Freddie, despite his fame and busy schedule, made it a point to communicate with his daughter every day while on tour.
B’s mother had two sons from a previous relationship but still held a special place in Freddie’s heart until his death. B has described their unique bond, saying that Freddie adored her and was devoted to her. She added that the circumstances of her birth may seem unusual, but it never affected Freddie’s commitment to love and care for her.
In an exclusive interview, Lesley-Ann Jones revealed that B had initially seemed like a fantasist, but he became convinced of her story after speaking with her three years ago. Jones highlighted that B has never pursued monetary gain or public recognition, keeping the confidentiality of their relationship intact through a legal arrangement made by Freddie’s last will and testament.
The book sheds new light on Freddie’s personal life, revealing an unconventional living situation where B would stay with her mother and stepfather, but also have her own room at their home. Freddie would spend time with his daughter every day when on tour, cherishing their bond.
B has spoken out about the need to reveal her story after decades of silence and speculation. She credits those who knew her existence for keeping her secret out of loyalty to Freddie, saying that she chooses to share her story in her own midlife.
