  • Mary Austin was the woman who won the heart of rock legend Freddie Mercury and has been the beneficiary of his fortune since his death in 1991.
    According to The Sun, she is now set to receive £187.5million after the deal with Sony is signed, after previously getting half of Freddie's estate and another 25 per cent when his parents died.
    Queen reportedly sold their iconic catalogue for a whopping £1 Billion pounds to Sony following a bidding war.
    She also receives 18.75 per cent of revenues from Queen Productions, which controls the catalogue and pays surviving members Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon.
    Mary is not in regular contact with the band members but she is one of the trustees of the Mercury Phoenix Trust which is a charity set up in the honour of Freddie Mercury.
    According to The Sun the surviving band members and Freddie's estate agreed to the sale with Sony Music, more than doubling the record set by Bruce Springsteen, who sold the rights to his music for £393M in 2021.
    Sony will now own all the band's hits including Bohemian Rhapsody, Don't Stop Me Now and I Want To Break Free.
    However unlike Springsteen and Bob Dylan, the band will retain the rights to perform their music live.

    He loved her. Why did it take so much time for her to get this. UK must have a lot of red tape.
