Biographer Lesley Ann Jones’ new tell-all, Love, Freddie: Freddie Mercury‘s Secret Life and Love, is slated to hit the shelves on September 5 and will be paired with a new Channel 5 documentary as the controversy around it continues to swirl.
The book centers on a secret love child known only as B, whom the magnetic British musician allegedly fathered through a fling with a close friend’s wife.
Excerpts from the biography have drawn doubt from his band Queen’s lead guitarist Brian May, his former fiancée and lifetime friend Mary Austin, and various insiders who claim to have known the late singer well.
