“We had heard of each other before, but we had never met, we had common friends, it was quite bizarre.”
Rocker Green said the first time he met Lee was when she at a bar where she was singing.
“I didn’t know who she was and she was on her own and I could see her tattoos and all, and I just fell in love,” he said.
“I got Lee’s number after a gig and the number was wrong, so I had been sending all these messages to the wrong person.”
