Love letters revealing the beginnings of what the BBC calls "the notorious love triangle" between The Beatles guitarist George Harrison, his model-turned-photographer wife Pattie Boyd, and the couple's close friend Eric Clapton are to be auctioned in London next month.
Boyd, who inspired Harrison to write the tender Beatles ballad Something, and inspired Clapton, who she married after her divorce from the Beatle, to write Layla and Wonderful Tonight, is selling off a selection of her personal effects, including letters, photos, jewellery and paintings, at Christies, as The Pattie Boyd Collection .
