She captured the hearts of George Harrison and Eric Clapton, but Pattie Boyd's great regret?
As diaries go, it’s something of a scorcher. ‘Does your silence mean be gone?’ reads one urgent telegram contained within it — the sender, one heartbroken Eric Clapton.
And there can be few young women who will have excitedly scribbled in their journals: ‘George Harrison asked me out!!!!’ — date, March 6, 1964.
Yet these messages are but a mere fraction of the passion and turmoil contained in a uniquely gripping new book from Sixties model and icon Pattie Boyd.
While it’s mainly an anthology of images from her remarkable life — from portfolio shots to photos she has taken herself over the years in her secondary career as an acclaimed photographer — it is her accompanying contemporaneous diary entries and scribbled reminiscences which leap out most vividly.
