Robinne Lee, the author of The Idea of You, recently discussed the inspiration behind her book.
There have been rumours that Harry Style’s life was connected to Anne Hathaway’s recent movie The Idea of You, which is based on Robinne Lee’s book of the same name.
But the actors consistently refuted all of these accusations, and the author of the book disclosed in a recent interview with People Magazine, “When I was about 13, I was obsessed with Duran Duran, so I knew what it was like to be a 13-year-old girl, obsessed with a band, and thinking that if they can only see me, one day, they’ll marry me.”
She then recalled, “I had been joking around with my husband and told him that I was going to run off and leave him and our two kids for a guy in a band who was half my age.”
“He laughed at me and was like, ‘You are crazy…but that would make a great book.’ And as he said it, it just all came together,” she added.
Robinne further went on to say that, “I knew everything,” explaining, “I knew how it was going to end. I knew how it was going to start. I could see my characters very specifically.”
“I’d had all these experiences in my life leading up to this moment that I thought, ‘Oh, I could write this book, and I could do it really, really well,” she said before moving to another topic.
