Biography:
Patricia Anne “Pattie” Boyd (born 17 March 1944) is an English model
and photographer who is best known as the wife of first George Harrison
and then Eric Clapton. She served as inspiration for several monumental
rock love songs written by both musicians.
Born in Taunton, Somerset, Boyd was a model during the 1960s. She was
known to frequent trendy clubs as well as the company of the
era-defining designers Mary Quant and Ossie Clark. She was photographed
by popular fashion photographers of the day, such as David Bailey and
Terence Donovan, and appeared on covers of magazines, including the UK
and Italian editions of Vogue. After she became the girlfriend of
Harrison, her stature increased as she was asked by Gloria Stavers to
write a regular column for 16 Magazine.
After their meeting on the set of A Hard Day’s Night, Boyd married
George Harrison on January 21, 1966, in the midst of the heyday of his
group, The Beatles. Harrison’s friend Eric Clapton, first of The
Yardbirds, then of Cream, also fell in love with her. Pattie went on to
divorce Harrison on June 9, 1977, and later married Clapton on March 27,
1979. She and Clapton divorced in June 1988. Pattie speaks with Shadoe
from London.
