Clapton’s Confession
She continued: [Harrison] kept asking, ‘Where’s Pattie?’ but no one seemed to know. He was about to leave when he spotted me in the garden with Eric. It was just getting light and very misty. George came over and demanded, ‘What’s going on?’ To my horror, Eric said, ‘I have to tell you, man, that I’m in love with your wife.’”
Making Her Choice
Boyd was stunned by Clapton’s abrupt confession. She said: “I wanted to die. George was furious. He turned to me and said, ‘Well, are you going with him or coming with me?’” She decided to go home with her husband that evening. However, Clapton had made things very clear, and that was that he wanted Boyd.
