She was his partner, later his personal assistant, and remained his closest friend until his death in 1991. Austin inherited half of Mercury's estate along with his Kensington house, Garden Lodge, where she lived for more than thirty years, and she has never disclosed where his ashes lie. In 2023 she sold his personal collection at auction for £39.9 million, the highest total recorded for a celebrity sale, and in 2026 she published A Life in Lyrics, drawn from his manuscript archive.
