John Curry will be remembered as one of skating's greats, and yet behind the facade lay a lonely man, tortured by doubt, depression and anger. Abused as a child, his quest for love and acceptance as an adult led him to sex, drugs and bulimia, and ended with his death from AIDS at the age of 44.
John Curry will be remembered as one of skating's greats, the creative genius who raised figure skating to level of high art and brought the 1976 World and Olympic titles to the UK. But behind the facade lay a lonely man, tortured by doubt, depression and anger. Abused as a child, his quest for love and acceptance as an adult took him on a dark odyssey of sex, drugs, mind control therapy and bulimia, and ended with his death from AIDS at the age of 44.
