I was just reading about Freddy Mercury and came accross this paragraph that i found somewhat touching

In a 1985 interview, Mercury said of Austin, “All my lovers asked me why they couldn’t replace Mary (Austin), but it’s simply impossible. The only friend I’ve got is Mary, and I don’t want anybody else. To me, she was my common-law wife. To me, it was a marriage. We believe in each other, that’s enough for me. I couldn’t fall in love with a man the same way as I have with Mary.”

Mary was his ex girlfriend who dumped him when he started sleeping around with other men but their love endured and he left his estate to her after his death.
