“The only friend I’ve got is Mary, and I don’t want anybody else,” Freddie Mercury had once said about the ‘love of his life,’ Mary Austin. While the legendary Queen singer’s relationships were always in the media spotlight, including in the recent, wildly popular movie Bohemian Rhapsody, the one that truly mattered probably received the least attention of them all.
Mary was 19 when she first met Freddie, whose real name was Farrokh Bulsara, in the early 1970s. She was working as a PR at a hip and trendy fashion shop in Kensington, West London when she first laid eyes on the “wild-looking artistic musician.” In an interview with the Daily Mail in 2013, she recalled: ‘He was like no one I had met before. He was very confident – something I have never been. We grew together. I liked him, and it went on from there.”
The couple started dating and formed a bond which would stay with Freddie throughout his life. While their physical relationship came to an end as Freddie came to terms with his sexuality, their friendship went from strength to strength.
Mary went on to get married and have two kids. She was there for Freddie as he succumbed to the HIV virus, and he left her with much of his fortune after his passing. “If things had been different you would have been my wife, and this would have been yours anyway,” he wrote in his will.
Things did not go well for Mary after Freddie died, suffering from illnesses and stress caused by the burden of her inheritance as jealousy and resentment reared its ugly head. “I don’t think the remaining members of Queen have ever reconciled themselves to it,” she said in the interview. “I don’t understand it. Because to me, it’s bricks and mortar. I try never to be jealous or envy people.”
“Freddie was very generous to them in the last years of his life, and I don’t think they embraced that generosity. I don’t think they appreciated or recognized what Freddie had left them. He left the band a quarter share of the last four albums – which he didn’t need to do. And I never hear from them. After Freddie died, they just wandered off.”
Mary still remembers Freddie, and the life they once shared. “‘You hear a specific song, and it makes you feel emotional. We lived those twenty-odd years together. Under the same roof. Together emotionally.”
