Pattie Boyd was the Queen of the Sixties and beyond … a drop-dead gorgeous model, photographer, and the inspiration for the timeless songs Something, Layla and Wonderful Tonight. Her story is one of drama, struggle and, ultimately, affirmation, but her struggles (against addiction, tragedy, infertility) were lived with two of the twentieth century’s greatest musical icons: her husbands George Harrison and Eric Clapton. Now, after 40 years, she tells her extraordinary story. From growing up in Kenya in a privileged but broken home, becoming a sixties supermodel, working with David Bailey and Ozzie Clarke, and meeting the Beatles, to marriage to George and then Eric, to the accidents and brushes with tragedy—her own and Eric’s—this is a mesmerising human story. Written with the acclaimed biographer and journalist Penny Junor, Wonderful Today is rich and raw, it is funny, heartbreaking and heartwarming.
