(00:00) Patty Boyd was described as the great love of your life true um I don’t know this is <PRESIDIO_ANONYMIZED_PERSON> a model pictured here in 1964 a married to George Harrison this is Eric Clapton he was George Harrison’s best friend how did I get to meet him no no no no how did you just we showed the same wife Patty inspired some of the most powerful love songs ever written including Layla an album written by Eric Clapton professing his love for Patty of course his best friend’s wife but what happened that led George and Eric to write this
(00:36) amazing music for her and did it work for Eric well kind of it’s a crazy story about a crazy lifestyle that didn’t end well for anyone [Music] The Story begins in 1964 when Patty Boyd was hired to appear in the Beatles film A Hard Day’s Night George took an instant liking to her but at the time she was already seeing someone else Eric Swain but after telling her friends about her meeting with George she returned to tell him that she’d broken up with Eric and they could go for dinner they got married two years later
(01:15) in 1966 and after the Beatles stopped touring in the same year they managed to find a lifestyle that actually suited them quite well they both had an interest in spirituality and vegetarianism and for a while it looked as though it would be a happy marriage that would last a long time despite the intense lifestyle that came with being a beetle George’s first meeting with Eric Clapton was also in 1964 when The Yardbirds are expand at the time was invited to support the Beatles at a gig in London all four of the Beatles were there but
(01:46) it was George and Eric that headed off straight away mostly because of their Mutual admiration and love of the guitar but at this time the Beatles were stars unlike Eric and so it would take a while until they really became close Eric saw himself less as a pop star and more as a serious Blues musician whenever pop success came his way he tended to shy away from it maybe even look down on it instead he was drawn more towards serious guitar playing and blues music I was by that by the time they came around I was already deeply ensconced in in
(02:18) hardcore blues and I’m becoming a purist very fast George being part of the Beatles was incredibly famous but he had this Longing To Be A respected guitar player something more like Eric their friendship continued to grow and at one point George invited Eric over to Abbey Road Studios to play on one of the Beatles songs While My Guitar Gently Weeps this was quite surprising because not many people played on Beatles records especially guitar because George was the Beatles guitarist but it seemed as though George was starting to
(02:48) distance himself away from the Beatles and more towards the guitar world that Eric was associated with he was also proving his chops as a songwriter writing songs such as Here Comes the Sun and something which was written for his wife Patty Frank Sinatra called this the greatest love song ever written it’s one of the best love songs I believe to be written in 50 or 100 years and it never says I love you in the song but it really is one of the finest the 1960s was a busy period for Eric but not in the same way as it was for George
(03:19) the 60s for George was of course dominated by The Beatles which more or less kept him on a steady path but for Eric things are very different Eric joined the Yard Birds a rhythm and blues band in 1963 and he stayed with them for two years until 1965. he briefly played with John male on the Blues Breakers before forming cream in 1966 with Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce it was with cream that he found the most mainstream success they stayed together until 1968 and then in 1969 he formed Blind Faith where they recorded just one
(03:50) album by the end of the Decades both George and Eric found themselves in unique positions looking for something else out of life George wanted to further explore his interest in spirituality and this led him to become more distant and isolated from his wife Patty in fact his interest was so strong that after returning from a trip to India he wanted to be like the god Krishna always surrounded by young women Eric however was looking to settle down somewhere in contrast to his ever-changing and hectic lifestyle of the 60s and so he found
(04:21) this place in Surrey hertzwood Edge it was a peaceful and solitary place where he’d live for many years to come musically this was a very important time for Eric he discovered the music of JJ Cale who become a major influence throughout his career and he formed the band Derek and the Dominos which he’d later called the greatest Rhythm Section he’d ever play with he also began seeing a lot more of George and his wife Patty as they lived only a 30-minute drive away so they come over they write songs
(04:49) and they’d have dinner it was clear that Eric had taken a liking to Patty and with George becoming more distant in their marriage it was difficult for Patty to resist this attention in [Music] Bell Bottom Blues you made me cry I Don’t Wanna Lose throughout 1970 they occasionally began seeing each other more often secret meetings would take place in London or in Guildford close to where they lived and it was at one of these meetings where Eric played a record for Patty of a song he just recorded the song was Layla
(05:27) she described it as one of the most powerful songs she’s ever heard it was about a young man that falls hopelessly in love with a woman but she’s unavailable this of course was how Eric felt about Patty I thought that this is such a a public Declaration of his feelings for me and I wasn’t really ready for it in fact I wasn’t ready at all for it because I still hadn’t made up my mind whether George and I could get back on track but after hearing the song and knowing how Eric felt it made it difficult to resist later that
(05:58) evening Patty was at a party at North London where Eric was also attending George didn’t want to go so he wasn’t there but he did turn up later and when he arrived he saw Eric and Patty talking in the garden he went over and asked what’s going on to which Eric applied I’m in love with your wife I remember being out in the garden with Eric at one point and then George appeared from nowhere and said very what’s he doing what’s happening and then that’s when Eric said I’m in love with your wife
(06:27) now it’s that moment like ah awful I just wanted the Earth to swallow me up George was Furious and asked Patty are you going with Eric or are you coming home with me Patty left the party and went home with George but this made George even more distant the next time she met Eric he offered a similar ultimatum but despite her feelings about the music she again declined and Eric went into a long period of isolation they didn’t see each other again for three years [Music] [Applause] [Music] after failing to win her over Eric went
(07:13) into a self-imposed Exile Derek and the dominoes broke up he retired from touring and just went into isolation inside his hurtwood home he didn’t leave the house he didn’t pick up the phone instead he just descended into Oblivion and other than a few compilations and live albums he didn’t release any new music until 1974’s 461 Ocean Boulevard there were a small number of live appearances such as at George Harrison’s concert for Bangladesh in 1971 but he actually passed out on stage then there
(07:45) was the rainbow concert which was organized by his friends in 1973 in an attempt to get him clean and finally by 1974 he was able to get clean at least off the stronger stuff but it was at this time that his drinking became a lot heavier for George and Patty the 70s weren’t much better either musically things were going well for George in 1970 he released his first solo album All Things Must Pass the following year he organized the concert for Bangladesh which as we know Eric just about took part in and in 1973
(08:16) he had another number one album living in the material world but for their marriage it wasn’t so good they’d already began to grow apart and George was getting even further involved in meditation and was having numerous Affairs including with Ringo Starr’s wife Maureen Eric and Patty had already started speaking again and once again he professed his love for her but this time things were different the marriage was going from bad to worse and she clearly wasn’t happy married to George Eric went out on tour in the U.S and
(08:47) this time she decided to go with him [Applause] [Music] [Applause] but this wasn’t an easy time not by any means she felt lost and confused and instead of feeling free and independent she just became more attached to Eric and his touring lifestyle this of course meant lots of drinking The Beatles hadn’t toured since 1966 and Patty hadn’t joined them before that anyway so this was her first experience on tour and she didn’t know what to expect this being Eric Clapton in the mid 70s it was certainly intense
(09:29) Eric will be partying all day and all through the night and sometimes you play a show just lying on his back and for Patty well she assumed this was the touring lifestyle and she wanted to be part of it but Eric was at one of his lowest points and sadly Patty had gone down with him [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] when they returned home things didn’t get much easier either it seems bizarre that Erica wanted Patty for so long at this point they’d known each other for eight or nine years and instead of
(10:09) cherishing this time when they were finally together things were going from bad to worse Eric was drinking more than ever and he go off on tour and he wouldn’t let Patty come with him and so yet again feeling lost and confused she went to spend some time in America with her friends and family at this point she didn’t expect to see Eric ever again until one night there was a phone call and it was from Eric and he asked her to marry him reluctantly she said yes and they got married the following Friday
(10:37) but what’s even more incredible is the story of how this came about it later turns out that Erica placed the bet with a friend Roger Forrester that he couldn’t get his name in The Following day’s newspaper and so Roger called up the Daily Mail and told them that Eric Clapton would be marrying Patty Boyd the following day it was printed in the paper and everyone knew about the marriage apart from Patty they got married almost immediately and instead of going on a honeymoon she joined Eric on tour for a few nights
(11:03) that was until Eric told her that he wanted her to go home less than a week into their spontaneous marriage and things were going back to how they were and what’s more Eric’s drinking was again getting worse despite all this there was a strong connection between the two of them and despite the infidelity the emotional connection between the two of them was strong until one night at dinner Eric told Patty that whilst he’d been in Italy he’d met someone else and this time it was more intimate Eric and Patty had
(11:31) unsuccessfully been trying for children for a long time and now Eric was going to have a child with someone else well that came about quite out of the blue I met this young lady I’m banging it happened it was like the baby was looking for parents too give it life This truly broke Patty’s heart and so she finally left [Music] [Applause] [Music] the story of George Patty and Eric is fascinating but it’s even more incredible to look at the music from this time it really allows us to understand how they were feeling and to
(12:14) feel the intense emotion poured into this music it’s no wonder that something George’s most successful song was written about Patty who at the time he was truly in love with I’m deeply deeply honored that George wrote that seriously beautiful song and I think what’s happened with time it has become more iconic because when I first heard it you know it’s a beautiful song yeah but then the more you hear it the more it just gets you because it’s so beautiful and Layla was also Eric’s
(12:45) most successful song and I think some of the best music to come out of his entire career and then there are other songs too such as bellbottom blues and wonderful tonight and it’s amazing how this music is so personal and yet so Universal to all of us people find it very difficult to understand therefore why you and he are still mates you know I mean why didn’t it damage your relationship well it did I mean it indented our relationship and it has you know there’s been a lot of times when it’s gone up
(13:13) and down music has this unique power to communicate our feelings and connect us with others and although the story of the three of them is heartbreaking it has left us with some amazing music you know I actually see we all see one another still and we’re like a tight little family really do you still love Patty very much [Music]

(11:17) with her and asked her not to leave he is sad but it was too late in her mind Patty soon joins Eric on tour at first enjoying standing on the side of the stage watching the crowd come alive when he plays the opening Rift to Lea it starts off like a fairy tale she soon realizes how grueling a coast to coast tour is living out of suitcases in hotels and airports getting to bed late at night and then back at it the next day Eric copes by drinking and she joins in one night she walks into a hotel room to find him and another guy alone with
(12:00) strippers and he blames it on his friend when she goes berserk disappointing discoveries will become a regular occurrence she will become accustomed to when she returns back to frier park to collect her items from George she feels guilty as he is sweet to her and acts sad she begins to wonder if she made the right choice once with Eric for a while she begins to compare the two both grew up working class but George came from loving parents and a close family Eric had grown up believing his mother was his sister as she had him with a married
(12:32) Air Force man from Canada when she was just 16 and kept it a secret his grandmother posed as his mother for years until they eventually came clean leaving him very confused her family loved George and he was very good to them Eric was more rough around the edges and they never took to him George had good social skills and enjoyed social dinners Eric was more antisocial unless he was drinking Eric would get up after eating to watch TV or play guitar and leave everyone at the table still eating George was tidy and Eric left
(13:07) clothing and things laying around the floor on Christmas George came over unannounced and was startled to find Patty eating meat again as they had been strict vegetarians for years but they had a good time hanging out the three of them she sadly realized that George had been alone on Christmas which is why he stopped by at home with Eric they have a lot of parties and drinking one night while she is taking a long time to get ready for a party Eric is playing around on his guitar when she comes into the room he plays her the opening line of
(13:41) wonderful tonight for a while they are enjoying life and one another falling deeply in love but soon after Eric’s drinking spirals out of control eventually leading him to alcohol withdraw seizures once on the road again Eric decides that wives or girlfriends are banned so Patty stays home alone which becomes her normal life with Eric she befriends a couple of other models who are twins when Eric is home from touring one of them spends the night and the next morning when Patty wakes up her model friend and Eric are gone shopping
(14:14) Patty leaves as well to go out and when she returns she finds them cozied up on the couch together when she asks what’s going on a drunk Eric responds can’t you see we are having a really intense and intimate conversation here she asks asks why he responds because I am in love with this girl go away and leave us alone just F off in shock and not knowing what to say she is immediately taken back to the time with the French girl and George after the New Year’s Eve party she goes upstairs in shock I sat
(14:48) on the bed shaking tears streaming down my face I felt like a complete and utter fool I gave up George for this she leaves and goes to her sister Jenny who has also left Mick Fleetwood and moved back to England with her daughters all I could think was thank God I have Jenny a couple of days later she phones Eric to tell him she is going away for a while and he says good they need a break he admits her friend is still there Patty heads to another friend’s home for several weeks in Los Angeles determined to not go back to Eric when she returns
(15:23) and figuring out what to do with her life the friend comes in one morning and tells her Eric called in the middle of the night and wants to marry her right away on Tuesday the day before his next tour begins in Tucson she reluctantly agrees they have the last minute wedding with just three days to prepare and her sister and some friends attend in a rush she later finds out that the whole thing came about after a friend bet Eric that he could get his photo in the paper the next day so the friend called the newspapers and told them about a fake
(15:56) wedding which is why they rushed for an answer since it was already already in all the papers in England before she knew about it while in Los Angeles she goes on tour with him after the wedding and they are happy until less than one week later he tells her to pack her bags and go home she finds out that her model friend he was having the affair with was back and had checked into the hotel they were staying in the crew ran the woman off but less than one week after the wedding everything changed the woman shows up several times throughout their
(16:28) marriage a dark reminder every time of the Betrayal yet she stays in the marriage Eric and Patty plan a big wedding reception at their home and they have all their musician friends attend including all the Beatles except for John lenon who said he would have attended if he knew about it this is often considered the closest The Beatles ever came to a reunion Eric lifts the ban on wives and girlfriends being on tour again but Patty does not go to Milan on one of the tours then one one night after the tour ends Eric invites
(17:01) Patty to dinner she thinking it is a romantic gesture is taken aback when in a crowded restaurant he tells her he needs to tell her something important he met another woman in Milan on tour he thinks he is in love with her too her name is lorri Del Santo Patty is crushed as they had been doing IVF treatments to get pregnant all she wants is a family at this point so she goes on pretending it isn’t happening while while still playing the doting wife then shortly after around Christmas time Eric tells her that lorri is pregnant another
(17:37) crushing blow he goes on about how beautiful Lori is and what great photos she takes knowing that Patty is also a budding photographer expecting her to be happy for him she calls it the final nail in the coffin of their marriage yet still stays with him for the time being she leaves and goes to her friend’s house house in the south of France around the time the baby is due Eric calls her to tell her he is the father of a son they named Connor he again expects her to be happy for him despite her being unable to conceive her friend
(18:13) at the house she is staying at is also pregnant and Patty begins to think she may never have a child of her own while all her friends are pregnant or already have children she explains I was 42 and my marriage was on its last legs so I had to face the unpalatable fact that I might never have a child for the first time I let go and cried uncontrollably shortly after Bill Wyman who lives nearby shows up at the house worried as his house is surrounded by Paparazzi and he might be wanted by police as a story has broken that he is in a relationship
(18:49) with a girl he met when she was just 14 so Bill stays there with them for 10 days making light of the mess they are in and keeping them in history hysterics every night with his stories while his house is under siege this break cheers her up and she returns feeling stronger keeping busy until Eric starts drinking again he also has the idea that she can help him raise the child she initially agrees as she continues more IVF treatments desperate for a child of her own Eric starts visiting Milan monthly to see Connor but as they never do
(19:24) conceive Patty finally reaches Rock Bottom as Eric Carri on about his son with the other woman she finally can no longer take the Heartbreak and announces she is divorcing him on one morning on her 43rd birthday during the divorce while sleeping in separate bedrooms Eric bursts into her room in a rage screaming at her for being a bad wife refusing to sleep with him and throws her things out the window terrified she fle leaving everything behind she stays with friends until she’s able to move into a small
(19:56) apartment of her own calling Eric’s hand handlers for money to get a place until they find her one she describes having no confidence feeling lost and confused crying at the slightest little thing with no career and no money she needs to find a job and start getting an income she starts calling old friends looking for work but no one has anything to offer the antidote to her suffering is to keep busy and find work she attempts several courses and eventually settles back to photography she starts taking classes attending
(20:30) lectures and joins the Royal photographic Society she starts getting work from magazines Patty eventually settles into a relationship with an old friend Rod who she describes as different from both George and Eric he has the same background and education as her for the first time in her life she has to live independently and learn to do everyday things she never learned to do she also has to recreate herself as she is no longer a model or a musician’s wife Patty fights through the difficulties by staying close to family and friends she
(21:05) even forgives her ex-husbands and stays friendly with them Eric takes her out to lunch from time to time and asks her to meet Connor one day Eric calls her with devastating news about Connor’s death and she worries for his well-being that this might drive him to return to drinking or drugs Eric eventually comes clean with her that he also has a daughter from another woman during their marriage so what would she have done differently when reflecting on Jane Asher’s response to finding Paul with another woman and immediately moving out
(21:37) she thinks she had done the same she would have stood up for herself and demand George make the other women leave their home immediately she would have not allowed herself to be treated with disrespect but Patty would not have left George for Eric she would have fought for her marriage she reflects on her low self-confidence and with each and every infidelity and drunken rage how it diminished her self-worth she also reflects on her parents abandoning her as a child leaving her to be raised in Kenya at a boarding school she sees the
(22:08) pattern of Abandonment and cheating that she was familiar with as a child Patty describes herself as happier than ever through self- knowledge she has learned self-acceptance she continues her photography and goes onto exhibitions throughout the world and is happily married

(07:03) would have expected to stab me in the back patty writes but she did the marriage was over I felt that there was no room for me in this ludicrous situation we’d all find ourselves in everyone behaving badly really it was a mess so in 1974 she left George and moved in with Eric remarkably when they were married three years laters George attended the wedding party Clapton wrote another hit song about his new life [Music] but their marriage was anything but wonderful Clapton began drinking heavily two bottles of brandy a day and what was

Pattie Boyd Hides Nothing About Her Tragic Love Triangle - YouTube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qocQwurAnzE

Transcript:
(00:00) In the late 1960s, musicians George Harrison and Eric Clapton found themselves fighting over the same woman. That woman was George Harrison’s then-wife, who was a model by the name of Pattie Boyd. Eric managed to steal George’s wife away from him, all the while remaining friends with the legendary Beatles guitarist.
(00:17) Some have speculated that the musician used voodoo to do so! Many years after the fact, Pattie Boyd came out with an intimate account of the story. Join Facts Verse as Pattie Boyd hides nothing about her tragic love triangle. Though not all popular music fans will know the name of Pattie Boyd, they will likely be very familiar with two famous songs that were written about her! Pattie Boyd is a former model that found herself the object of affection of two competing musicians during the late 1960s.
(00:44) Those musicians were George Harrison and Eric Clapton. At the time, George Harrison was the lead guitarist of the most popular rock band in the world, with that, of course, being the Beatles. Meanwhile, Eric Clapton was the guitarist of the rock band Cream and would later break out as a solo artist. George Harrison wrote the song “Something” for Pattie during their marriage.
(00:51) The song was included on the Beatles’ 1969 album Abbey Road. Eric Clapton certainly had a lot to live up to if he wanted to compete romantically with George Harrison, and he did so by writing the song “Layla”. Eric ended up recording the song with his new band, Derek and the Dominos, and it was released on the band’s 1970 album Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs.
(01:12) Before the album’s release, Eric premiered the song to Pattie in private. Eric had already expressed his romantic interest to Pattie before showing her the song that he had written for her. According to her, Eric played the song three times over for her before asking her what she thought. Pattie claimed she was immediately worried that the public would know the song was about her upon its release.
(01:31) However, this didn’t end up being the case. Pattie ended up being so moved by the fact that Eric wrote the song about her that she finally gave in to the guitarist’s romantic advances. Things only got more serious between Pattie and Eric later that evening. Pattie went to a party while George stayed home.
(01:45) Eric Clapton ended up being at the same party, and he and Pattie began socializing. George showed up at the party later and wasn’t happy when he saw how close Pattie and Eric were getting. Upon approaching the two, George was told by Eric that he was in love with his wife. Pattie Boyd and George Harrison had met in 1964, while the Beatles were filming A Hard Day’s Night.
(02:04) Pattie was hired onto the film to play the part of a schoolgirl, and she was immediately stricken by the appearance of the band’s guitarist. Though Pattie was apparently dating somebody else at the time, she couldn’t help but fall for George’s advances when it turned out that he felt the same way. George Harrison apparently mockingly asked Pattie Boyd to marry him during their initial conversation.
(02:23) Although the guitarist was just goofing around, the two ended up marrying only a few years later. After dating for some time, Pattie and George ended up tying the knot in 1966. It was only several years into their marriage that George wrote the iconic song “Something” for his new wife, though things had apparently taken a turn for the worse in their relationship already.
(02:38) In 1968, the Beatles went on their famous trip to India, where they studied metaphysical concepts alongside the Maharishi <PRESIDIO_ANONYMIZED_PERSON>. After coming back from this trip, George Harrison became incredibly obsessed with yoga and esotericism, and Pattie didn’t quite like the impact that these newfound fascinations had on her husband.
(02:56) Apparently, the thing that George Harrison was most stricken about by the yogi way of the life was that all of the various gurus had a stable of concubines. Upon his return to America, it was George’s goal to emulate this trait of the yogis. In doing so, he began to be rampantly unfaithful to Pattie Boyd.
(03:12) After returning from India with his bandmates, George Harrison began cheating on his wife a great deal. During this time period, Pattie became incredibly depressed. This opened up the opportunity for Eric Clapton to step in and seduce her. If you’re enjoying this video so far, be sure to hit the like button to show your support!

According to Pattie Boyd, she became incredibly hurt when George Harrison began to express
(03:32) romantic interest in other women during their marriage. One of the women that Pattie suspected George of becoming involved with during this period was actually a former flame of Eric Clapton’s. George invited her to come stay with him and Pattie after she and Eric broke up, with George explaining to his wife that she needed a place to stay because she was distraught.
(03:50) However, Pattie began noticing that the woman didn’t seem very distraught, and instead seemed to be spending quite a bit of time fraternizing with her husband. After a brief time period of Pattie coexisting under one roof with George Harrison and Eric Clapton’s former flame, Pattie apparently gave her husband an ultimatum.
(04:06) Pattie left the house and told George that she wasn’t going to return until the other woman was gone. A short time later, George called her up and told her that the woman was, indeed, gone and that Pattie could come back. However, this incident was far from being the only incident wherein it seemed as if George was open to the idea of loving another woman.
(04:17) As things got worse and worse between Pattie Boyd and George Harrison, Eric Clapton began coming over more and more. George and Eric had become friends, with the latter often coming over to the former’s house so that they could work on music together. However, it now seems as if the real reason that Eric may have been coming over was so that he could get closer to Pattie.
(04:31) Though Pattie claims that Eric was incredibly shy around her at the time, the guitarist managed to win her over with his subtle charm. Eric apparently took the time to notice small things about her, which was something that George had long since stopped doing. Eric knew that he couldn’t have Pattie, so he ended up setting his sights on Pattie’s teenage sister.
(04:47) Eric met Pattie’s younger sister, Paula, in 1969, when Pattie took her along to a concert. The two became instantly smitten, and Paula was soon living with Eric at his mansion. However, Eric wasn’t satisfied with Paula and still felt that he needed Pattie. It was around this time period that Eric wrote “Layla”.
(05:03) Before inviting Pattie Boyd over to listen to the song, Eric Clapton wrote her an anonymous letter expressing that he was still in love with her. Pattie had initially assumed that a crazed fan had written the letter. However, a later phone call from Eric revealed that it was, in fact, he who had written it.
(05:16) Pattie Boyd was born in 1944 and was working as a shampoo girl during her teenage years when someone spotted her that worked for the magazine Honey. That person offered Pattie a job as a model, and the work led to appearances in other magazines, including Elle and Vogue. Before long, Pattie was offered her aforementioned life-changing role in A Hard Day’s Night.
(05:34) Pattie had been given her role in the film after having worked with director Richard Lester in a series of commercials beforehand. George Harrison and Pattie Boyd married in 1966, and remained married until 1977, despite the fact that their marriage had begun deteriorating soon after its inception. Two years after officially divorcing George Harrison, Pattie went on to tie the knot with Eric Clapton in 1979, a decade after he had written the song “Layla” for her.
(05:56) Sadly, the love story between Pattie and Eric didn’t end up turning out much better than the one between her and George. Soon into their marriage, Eric began cheating on Pattie with various other women. Much of this behavior was spurred on by Eric’s worsening pattern of substance abuse. After a decade of trying to make things work, Pattie and Eric ended up divorcing in 1989.
(06:11) After divorcing Eric Clapton, Pattie Boyd decided that she didn’t want to date any more rock stars. Instead, she went on to find a third husband in property developer Rod Weston. The two began dating in 1991, shortly after Pattie’s divorce from Eric. However, they decided that they wanted to take things slow, and didn’t end up getting married until just recently, in 2015.
(06:26) Although Pattie Boyd coming out with her intimate account of what happened between her, George Harrison, and Eric Clapton put a good deal of speculation to rest regarding the love triangle, there are some that believe that what really happened between the three involved voodoo. There are many who think that Eric Clapton used voodoo in order to steal George Harrison’s wife from him, and those who theorize such things also credit said voodoo with George Harrison and Eric Clapton remaining friends after the latter stole the former’s wife.
(06:48) According to those who believe these tales, Eric Clapton learned voodoo from fellow musician Dr. John, who allegedly gave the guitarist a love potion that he then gave to Pattie Boyd, resulting in her leaving George. Although Eric Clapton worked tirelessly for years to win Pattie Boyd from George Harrison, he ended up cheating on her soon after they got married.
(07:00) Now it’s time to hear from you: did you know that two of the biggest rock songs ever were written about a former model by the name of Pattie Boyd and that she is still around today?
