„I’m only in this thread as a reality check“. Oh, really? What are you? Some sort of central scrutinizer?

I’m just Donna13! But I like the new title.

Donna13, are you aware of the fact that you are communicating with The King of Hearts? I am Lord Diana. And I am only in this thread to make sure that Mary Austin will finally move out of Garden Lodge in order for you to set up your very own Central Scrutinizer Headquarters in West London. What do you make of that now, DonnaUWanna?

A very silly idea. Everyone knows Freddie’s ghost is way too scary.

Donna13, you must not be unbecomig. What nobody apart from me nows is that the holy grail is still in Garden Lodge, at a secret place: His moustache, or, as they say in the trade, his flavor-saver. Not even Mary knows about this top-secret. Beach, May and Taylor are talking about producing a movie about the moustache right now.

I think they should make a movie about Roger’s mother. They could call it Rock’N’Roll Mum. I hope she is still alive and well.
FunLovinCriminal
I bet you are Roger's mother. Or Mary Austin's sister. Donna Austin. So it must be.
Donna13
I wish I was Roger’s mother! What a cool job!
FunLovinCriminal
It ain't a job, you bright being. It is a curse.

Such hate on this site. I would like to think that fans on here are here for Freddie and would stand up for what he decided for himself during his life and in the end. That’s whose side I am on, and I do feel strongly that if Freddie were alive when Jim Hutton published his book, he wouldn’t have taken it too well. I liken it to what Paul Prenter did to Freddie. I don’t see how Jim’s book is any different. Out of all of the people in Freddie’s life, you would think Jim, knowing how Freddie reacted to Paul Prenter’s actions, would have held Freddie’s privacy nearer and dearer than anyone else. Freddie didn’t hesitate to cut anyone from his life immediately and completely if they betrayed his trust, no matter what their role or how long he knew them. I don’t think Jim Hutton would have been any different if Freddie were alive. What Jim did was deplorable. He put Freddie’s most intimate details on display. He sold books, pictures and videos. He went on a talk show circuit. He took and sold the famous yellow Wembley jacket. http://www.freddiemercury.com/en/ask-phoebe/blog-57. He did not give it to AIDS charity as many state.
I also do not believe a word Jim Hutton says, and not because it is my “feeling” or “opinion”, but because he contradicts himself at every turn (written and spoken). He also never shows any regard or respect for Freddie’s privacy and focuses on “I, me, I, me” the entire time telling stories to either make himself out to be the hero or victim. Interviewers ask him how Freddie felt and how Freddie dealt with things, but when he answers he only talks about himself and not Freddie.

Examples of Jim Hutton’s contradictions, which makes him lose all credibility with me:
In this interview, he claims he saw/met Freddie THREE times before he went home with him: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=n3zANjOqmVc
In this interview, he claims he didn’t know who Freddie was until Joe Fanelli told him as he was getting coffee in the kitchen: http://www.timteeman.com/2006/09/07/i-couldnt-bear-to-see-freddie-wasting-away/
In this interview, he claims it was Freddie himself that told him who he was: https://hornet.com/stories/freddie-mercury-boyfriend-jim-hutton/amp/
In this interview, he claims he found out “during the course of the evening” who Freddie was: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVQit8mvgnY (this entire series is just flat out disgusting and full of inaccuracies).
In this interview he claims that Freddie died in his arms: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pypBYL_5G0 5:47
In this interview he claims Freddie was not in his arms, but he was there when Freddie died: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=n3zANjOqmVc
It has been stated, and he has claimed himself that he helped nurse Freddie, but in this interview he says that he didn’t, as he couldn’t bear to see Freddie wasting away: http://www.timteeman.com/2006/09/07/i-couldnt-bear-to-see-freddie-wasting-away/ “Mercury was nursed by Fanelli and Freestone. “He wanted me to do it but I couldn’t bear to see him wasting away,” says Hutton.”
He claims in his book that Freddie’s bones broke when they moved him in bed, but Peter Freestone (since people seem to trust him) says otherwise http://www.freddiemercury.com/en/ask-phoebe/blog-24, http://www.freddiemercury.com/en/ask-phoebe/blog-89
He claims it was Kaposi Sarcoma on Freddie’s shoulder that he had biopsied first and then found out he was HIV positive, but Peter Freestone says it was a mark on his hand, not shoulder http://www.freddiemercury.com/en/ask-phoebe/blog-76, http://www.freddiemercury.com/en/ask-phoebe/blog-74. Also, you can see this mark on Freddie’s hand in various photos, so I tend to believe Peter over Jim https://www.pinterest.com/pin/84724036720651861/, https://pin.it/4p52vhjfvkaumu.
He claims that at the end of These are the Days of Our Lives when Freddie looks at the camera and says, “I still love you” that Freddie is talking to HIM and not fans https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4pypBYL_5G0 . Everyone else, including Bryan May, says that was Freddie’s goodbye to his fans. Bryan May stated in an interview that Jim Hutton had an “idealistic” view of his influence on Freddie and the band.
He claims that Freddie didn’t have anything to do with the statement released to the press the day before he died, http://www.timteeman.com/2006/09/07/i-couldnt-bear-to-see-freddie-wasting-away/. But all other accounts say that Freddie worked with Jim Beach on the release, including Peter Freestone http://www.freddiemercury.com/en/ask-phoebe/blog-29
He claims that he was “kicked out of Garden Lodge” by Mary two weeks after Freddie died, but in this interview he claims he didn’t leave until March 1992 https://m.ranker.com/list/freddie-mercury-and-jim-hutton-relationship/melissa-sartore “Hutton left Garden Lodge in March 1992.”
He claims that he and Freddie continued to have sex, but with condoms, after Freddie’s diagnosis, but Freddie HIMSELF said otherwise https://brianmay.com/freddie/cr1201/cr1201b.html “I've stopped going out, whatever, and to be honest I've almost become a nun. I learned the hard way. I thought sex was a very important thing to me because I lived through sex, and now I've gone completely the other way. You see, I'm one of those people who can go from black to white; I don't like intermediary measures or anything. It's quite easy for me to completely give up. I can give up alcohol at the drop of a hat. And yes, it [HIV/Aids] has frightened me to death and I have stopped having sex.”
There are claims that they called each other “husband”, but there is nowhere in print or in interview, where Freddie says that. It doesn’t matter if someone’s sister’s husband’s cousin’s Aunt claims that they called each other that, unless you see it or hear it from Freddie, I would question it. There are two interesting blogs from Peter Freestone on Freddie and marriage. This is one of them http://www.freddiemercury.com/en/ask-phoebe/blog-55. Also, Freddie wore a ring on his right hand at various times throughout his life and career. It may have been when he was in a relationship with someone, so the ring he wore while with Jim isn’t anything different than what he would normally do. He has one on in the Leiden interview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xA-leRQp5nk from 1984.
And I would like to see in print or in interview somewhere, anywhere where the band states that they hate Mary Austin and that Mary was the one that had guards placed at Garden Lodge. That was more than likely part of probate and securing the property as it went through the process to prevent break-ins and looting. Just because it may have happened, doesn’t mean it was ordered by Mary.
I think Peter Freestone says it best on his blog: “I must admit that sometimes I wonder if people check their facts before making statements on facebook etc. Like many people I check various fan pages and I am astounded by all the misinformation that I read that is stated as hard fact. I am sure that these people believe what they write, but for the rest of us, please don’t accept everything you read as the truth, without checking up on some of the more outrageous things that you see laid down.”
