When Becky attended the Secret Garden Party festival with her partner in the summer of 2017, she had no idea it would lead to meeting her best friend. “My now-husband and I had not long started dating, and he said he would buy tickets on the condition that he could wear my big red flamenco dress,” she says. She agreed and, knowing the festival was famed for people dressing up, she also brought a range of costumes with her for the weekend.
On the first day, she dressed up as Beyoncé before going to say hello to the festival-goers in the neighbouring campervans. “One of them was Neo’s husband, who said: ‘My wife loves dressing up too.’” But nothing could have prepared her for Neo’s big entrance.
