“Mary is one of my closest friends in the world. Ours is a pure friendship and a friendship of the highest standard. It’s an instinctive thing. I have built up an immense bond with Mary. I open up to her more than anybody else. We have gone through a lot of ups and downs in our time together, but that has made our relationship all the stronger. I know a lot of people find it hard to understand our relationship. Other people who come into our lives just have to accept it. We love each other very much and look after each other. I don’t want anybody else. Sometimes a good friend is much more valuable than a lover.”

In Freddie’s Own Words!
