I agree 100%. It was Freddie's wishes what he left her in his will based on his very personal, lifelong bond with her, whatever context that bond was. and thus, we have only to RESPECT that, because that is therefore, respecting what Freddie wanted.

There is graffiti-proof paint on it now, thankfully. I've always been aghast at how anyone could vandalize their hero's property and harass / slag their dearest friends. It definitely is jealousy and envy. I've been within arm's reach of hundreds of celebs as part of a job, but I wouldn't even think of interfering with them or speaking to them on a personal basis outside of what the job required (not a paparazzi, by the way, I hate those fucks). We're outside the circle, plain and simple. Touch the wall at Garden Lodge if you like, but don't screw with the property or anyone who lives there. That need to weasel in on someone's life is just perverted. It's called stalking, and as I've said before, if Freddie were still around, he'd kick the fuckers right in the jewels for messing with his house.
As for Mary, it took her 5 years before she started sleeping in the master bedroom, and she lost her first husband because of all the emotional shit that went with Freddie's estate.
And as for Hutton, well if you got $100,000 and a handshake, wouldn't you hate everything about the bird who got $20,000,000?

Freddie referred to Mary as his common-law-wife.Whether it was in jest or not is beide the point.He loved her enough to trust her with his home and he gave it to her in love.How can someone say the love Freddie and then treat someone he adored like trash?
