Freddie Mercury considered her his common-law wife. "All my lovers asked me why they couldn't replace Mary, 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."

He even bequeathed to her his residence in London, writing to her in his will, "You would have been my wife and it would have been yours anyway.".
