Jim Hutton and Mary Austin
The film makes it look like Jim Hutton and Mary Austin were friendly after Freddie introduced them. And then whatever their relationship was during Freddie’s lifetime, it went sour drastically. Freddie and Jim lived at 1 Logan Place, Kensington.

But in reality, Freddie didn’t leave the house to Jim, he actually left it to Mary. And when Freddie died, Mary kicked Jim out of the house and denied him access to Freddie’s ashes. This was confirmed in interviews with Brian May, Roger Taylor, and Freddie’s sister Kashmira.
