Queen's Freddie Mercury Had a Secret Daughter, New Biography Claims: Report


Freddie Mercury had a secret daughter in 1976 with the wife of a close friend, according to a report from 'The Daily Mail,' which cites 'Love, Freddie: Freddie Mercury’s Secret Life and Love,' a biography that contains the musician's secret diaries, which he reportedly gifted to his child, now 48.

Jones claims in Love, Freddie, per The Daily Mail, that the existence of Mercury's daughter was only known by those in the singer’s inner circle: his parents, sister, Queen bandmates and Mary Austin — his ex-fiancée and close friend. According to the author, per The Daily Mail, Mercury, the girl's mom and her stepfather decided to “raise the child together,” which meant the rock icon “visited and stayed with them frequently." According to The Daily Mail, Love, Freddie also contains a letter from Mercury’s alleged daughter, in which she reveals why she decided to share the Queen frontman’s secret diaries years after his death.
