The widow of John Farnham's long-term manager Glenn appeared on A Current Affair and revealed the You're The Voice hitmaker, 75, had rejected offers to write a book for years. 'I did not think he would write a book.

There has been many offers over the years and he's absolutely rejected them for as long as I can remember,' Gaynor began. However, she added that John had finally agreed to write his newly released memoir The Voice Inside, for a surprising reason. 'I think he has a story to tell now.

He just felt it was his opportunity and his time now to say what he wanted to say.' Gaynor was married to Glenn Wheatley from 1982 until his death in February 2022, and is one of the singer's most beloved friends. Earlier this week, Gaynor opened up about whether the iconic Australian singer will ever perform again following a brutal mouth cancer battle.
