The biographer who broke the news that Freddie Mercury had a secret daughter has spoken out in a fascinating update as to the results of a DNA test to prove whether the singer is related
Superstar Freddie Mercury’s secret child has done a DNA test to prove she is the rock star’s off-spring.
Biographer Lesley-Ann Jones says that “requisite verification was obtained” in response to questions from fans over the validity of the revelation.
She said: “To those ‘demanding’ to see proof of a DNA test, otherwise they won’t believe it – please rest assured that the requisite verification was obtained, legal teams have been involved, but that such measures are private and not shared publicly.”
She also hit back at those questioning whether the new cache of Freddie’s secret diaries were faked with AI. She added on X: “To those insisting Freddie Mercury’s diaries were faked with AI, that his daughter ‘doesn’t exist’ and that I’ve made the whole thing up: wait and see. His true story, told in his own words, is incredible. I love him all the more for it. You will too.”
Her new book, Love, claims the singer, who was gay, had a daughter as the result of a fling with the wife of a friend but only very close family, the band and Freddie’s ex-girlfriend Mary Austin knew of her existence.
His daughter is now 48, lives in Europe and is a mother. She says she always knew the musician, real name Farrokh Bulsara, was her father – and before his Aids-related death in 1991 he gave her 17 volumes of his personal journals. She contacted Jones to tell her story.

The book, out in September, includes a handwritten letter from the woman, known as B: “Freddie Mercury was and is my father. We had a very close and loving relationship from the moment I was born and throughout the final 15 years of his life.
“He adored me and was devoted to me. The circumstances of my birth may seem, by most people’s standards, unusual and even outrageous. That should come as no surprise. It never detracted from his commitment to love and look after me.
“Those who have been aware of my existence kept his greatest secret out of loyalty to Freddie.”
According to Lesley-Ann, the singer even had a room in their family house, in order to spend as much quality time with her as possible.
While the star was on tour around the world with his band Queen or penning new tracks in the recording studio, Freddie made sure he would call her everyday.
The woman said that she now craved privacy. She said: “The life I live with my husband and our family in another country is intensely private.
