Pattie Boyd’s Net Worth $20 Million

Pattie is the oldest of four children born to Colin Ian Langdon Boyd and Diana Frances Boyd. Her family moved frequently, resulting in her attending several schools. Her parents divorced in 1952. Her mother remarried in 1953 and divorced again before marrying Mick Fleetwood, the drummer of the rock band Fleetwood Mac.

In 1962, after receiving three GCE O-Level passes, Pattie moved to London, where she found her first job at the hair salon of Elizabeth Arden as a shampoo girl.

Fortunately for Pattie, that didn’t last long as she was encouraged by one of her clients to pursue a career as a model.

She made her debut appearance in 1962 when she was first photographed by David Bailey and later by Terence Donovan. She also appeared on the cover of Vogue, which further increased her net worth. She featured on the covers of Italian and UK versions of Vogue in 1969, and appeared in several commercials, promoting Smith’s crisps. She also launched an acting career, securing several brief roles, including a significant role in the film “A Hard Day’s Night” (1964), where she met George Harrison on set. Two years later, the couple got married.

Her personal life is more intriguing than her career, but she found a way to take advantage of her marriages, starting a photographic exhibition of Clapton and Harrison in 2005, titled “Through the Eye of a Muse”. Since then, she has held exhibitions across Europe, Australia, Canada, and the USA, increasing her net worth.

Her marriage to Harrison lasted until 1977, during which she was exposed to numerous drugs, including LSD and cocaine. However, she managed to break away from substance abuse. She cited Gorge’s excessive drug use as the reason for their divorce.

While Clapton and Harrison collaborated on music in the late 1960s, Eric began falling in love with Pattie, which he acknowledged in the song “Layla”. As her marriage to George fell apart, she and Clapton became closer, marrying two years after her divorce. However, their marriage faced challenges as both Pattie and Eric struggled with alcohol. They eventually divorced in 1984.

Moving forward, Boyd married property developer Rod Weston in 2015, following around 25 years in a relationship.

1On living in Eric Clapton’s country house: “I loved living in the country, that was the best time we had. It was the most staggeringly romantic garden. There was a sadness in the house and the garden, a kind of melancholy which was very Eric, in a way, and very creative.”
2On touring with Eric Clapton in the 1970s: “Eric would just completely pass out wherever he was sitting, whether it was on the sofa or the floor, because he was saturated with drink. The realization hit me: ‘This isn’t fun. He’s not having fun’.”
