URGENT UPDATE: The alleged daughter of Freddie Mercury, known only as B, has tragically passed away at the age of 48 after a long battle with cancer. Her family confirmed the heartbreaking news earlier this week, revealing she succumbed to chordoma, a rare spinal cancer, leaving behind two young sons aged 9 and 7.
The announcement comes just under a year after B publicly identified herself as Mercury’s daughter in the book Love, Freddie, released in May 2025. In a poignant revelation, she claimed that Mercury, the iconic lead singer of Queen, was aware of her existence and maintained a close relationship with her throughout his life. “Freddie Mercury was and is my father,” she wrote, expressing deep affection and connection.
B’s story, however, was not without controversy. Raised away from the public eye, she lived a life as a medical professional while yearning for the recognition of her father. “For 30 years, I had to build my life and family without him,” she shared, reflecting on her struggles to navigate her identity in the shadow of her father’s legendary status.
Her family disclosed to The Daily Mail that B passed away peacefully, stating, “B is now with her beloved and loving father in the world of thoughts. Her ashes were scattered to the wind over the Alps.” Sadly, she had been diagnosed with cancer several years ago and hoped to share her story before her death, which led her to collaborate with biographer Lesley-Ann Jones.
Jones expressed her sorrow on Instagram, stating, “Although I had known from day one that she was terminally ill with a rare form of cancer, I was sworn to secrecy. Her mission was to set Freddie’s record straight. I was honoured to help her do that.” She also defended B against skepticism, calling out detractors who questioned her legitimacy.
Despite never being mentioned in Mercury’s will, B had a separate legal arrangement ensuring her financial stability. This revelation adds another layer to the complexities surrounding Mercury’s legacy and the lives intertwined with it.
As fans and family mourn her loss, the impact of B’s revelations about her relationship with the music legend resonates deeply. Her story, marked by both love and secrecy, now serves as a poignant reminder of the personal narratives that often go untold in the shadow of fame.
