  'I didn't realise that six years of marriage would last a lifetime.' Nobody knows George Best quite like his ex-wife Angie. Their much publicised relationship was conducted in the full glare of the media spotlight and on an emotional roller-coaster that soared the heights and plumbed the depths. Could life with George Best be anything else? This candid autobiography provides unique and fascinating insights into George's decline. With brutal honesty Angle details the battles with the booze, the non-stop womanising and the deterioration of Britain's greatest footballer into 'nothing but a helpless baby'. Angie still speaks to George regularly, offering support and advice to help him conquer his alcohol addiction. Despite everything George put her through, Angie admits: 'I remain good friends with George. He is the only man I ever loved.' George and Me is an uplifting tale of one woman's battle to find the strength to leave and then rebuild her own life.
