Rory Hutton previews the upcoming Freddie Mercury auction at Sotheby’s and shares a very personal connection with the late Queen singer …
I recently visited Sotheby’s for the opening of its latest exhibition titled “Freddie Mercury: A World of His Own.” The exhibition showcases an array of treasures from Freddie’s sanctuary, Garden Lodge in Kensington, London and will culminate with an auction of these objects.
He couldn’t have imagined the effect his relationship with Freddie had on this shy boy. I would quiz my grandmother relentlessly all about Jim. I wanted to know everything about his life with Freddie, the house Freddie built for him in our hometown, what the family thought when they found out about his relationship with this huge celebrity. What she imagined my late grandfather would have said about it all, etc.
. Jim had gifted this to her, and it was inscribed to his aunt. I would secretly read a couple of chapters before carefully putting it back. It feels ridiculous to me now, but I imagined my grandmother would have considered it unsuitable reading for me, hence it became this illicit thing. She wasn’t much of a reader, so it’s highly likely she had no idea about its contents!
