BOMBSHELL CLAIM ROCKS QUEEN FANS: FREDDIE MERCURY'S SECRET LOVE CHILD EXPOSED!

In a jaw-dropping revelation that's sending shockwaves through the music world, biographer Lesley-Ann Jones has alleged that Queen legend Freddie Mercury fathered a secret love child in the 1970s. And if that wasn't enough, sources close to the late rockstar's wife Anita Dobson claim that Brian May was left stunned by the news, with Anita herself admitting she's not convinced the story is true.

According to Jones' new biography, "Love Of My Life," Freddie allegedly fathered a daughter named 'B' during an affair in 1976. And get this – she now has DNA evidence to back it up! The bombshell claim suggests that Mercury kept his secret love child hidden from the public eye for years, even going so far as to share his personal journals with her before his untimely passing in 1991.

The English actress, 76, revealed her own shock after hearing that Freddie (pictured in 1985) allegedly fathered a daughter in the 1970s ¿ and said Brian was equally floored by the news

But don't just take Jones' word for it – Anita Dobson has come forward to reveal her own shock and skepticism about the allegations. Speaking exclusively to The Scholarly Note, the English actress revealed that she was left gobsmacked by the news, saying: "I went 'what?' I thought no? And I said to Brian: 'Do you know about this?' And he said: 'Do you believe this?'"

It's no secret that Freddie Mercury was known for his larger-than-life personality and tumultuous love life. But the idea that he secretly fathered a child with someone we don't even know about is just mind-boggling. "There must be lots of people who have children that we don’t know about," Anita said. "It’s just because it’s him. Because he’s iconic. And the type of animal that he was, it seems inconceivable that he would have a child with someone we don’t know about."

But wait, there's more! The alleged love child, 'B,' has even shared her own handwritten letter in Jones' book, detailing her close and loving relationship with Freddie throughout his final years. According to the letter, Mercury showered 'B' with love and attention, often calling her daily from the road while touring with Queen.

She told the publication: 'I went

Of course, not everyone is convinced by this bombshell claim. Some are demanding proof of a DNA test before they'll believe it, while others are skeptical about the existence of Freddie's secret diaries, which Jones claims she has obtained through legal channels.

But Lesley-Ann Jones isn't having any of it. In a fiery response to her critics, she tweeted: "To those 'demanding' to see proof of a DNA test, otherwise they won't believe it – please rest assured that the requisite verification was obtained, legal teams have been involved, but that such measures are private and not shared publicly."

She also hit back at claims that Freddie's secret diaries were faked using artificial intelligence. "To those insisting Freddie Mercury's diaries were faked with AI, that his daughter 'doesn't exist' and that I've made the whole thing up: wait and see," she wrote. "His own story is his true story, told in his own words, is incredible. I love him all the more for it. You will too."

The astonishing claim was made by biographer Lesley-Ann Jones (pictured), who says the Queen frontman secretly fathered a child during an affair in 1976 ¿ and that she now has DNA evidence to back it up

Stay tuned for more updates on this shocking scandal! Will the truth come to light, or will Freddie's secrets remain buried forever? One thing's for sure – the world will be watching with bated breath as this drama unfolds.

But actress Anita is convinced that Freddie was too big a star for the news to have not leaked before, she said: 'There must be lots of people who have children that we don¿t know about. It¿s just because it¿s him' (Anita and Brian pictured in May)
