A woman believed to be Freddie Mercury’s secret daughter has died at the age of 48 after a long battle with cancer, her family has confirmed. Known publicly only as B, her existence became widely known just last year following the publication of the biography Love, Freddie.

According to reports, B died after suffering from chordoma, a rare form of spinal cancer. Her widower told the Daily Mail that the couple had two young sons, aged 9 and 7. She first developed the illness in childhood, and it later returned in adulthood.
