"Honest and moving" Independent on Sunday
Freddie Mercury was a rock superstar unique in his kind. Recently, the attention surrounding the Oscar-winning movie Bohemian Rhapsody revealed his extraordinary career, which brought over 1 billion pounds in sales over two decades. However, for all his fortune, Mercury could not obtain the most valuable thing he desired: the love of a certain man.
Jim Hutton was a humble hairdresser when the two met in 1983. After many difficult beginnings, they became permanent lovers. From the moment they started living together, wherever Mercury went, Hutton went too. And whoever Mercury met, Hutton met as well – from Phil Collins to Elton John, David Bowie, and the other members of Queen. They laughed together, fought together, and, in Mercury's later years, often cried together.
Freddie Mercury was forty-five when he died of AIDS in Hutton's arms. No one can tell the story of the final years of Mercury's personal life – the joys and the sorrows – more accurately or honestly than Jim Hutton.
