Pattie Boyd


 

Patricia Anne "Pattie" Boyd (born 17 March 1944), model and photographer, is best known as the wife of two famous rock musicians and the possible inspiration for several memorable rock love songs. After meeting on the set of A Hard Day's Night, Pattie married George Harrison in 1966, during the heyday of his group, The Beatles. Unfortunately, Harrison's friend Eric Clapton, first of The Yardbirds, then of Cream, also fell madly in love with her. Pattie went on to divorce Harrison in 1977 and later marry Clapton in 1979. She eventually divorced Clapton as well in 1988.
