Julian Lennon had to buy back letters he wrote to his dad John Lennon at auction for.....

Sunday, January 5, 2025

John Lennon was tragically assassinated in December 1980 when his son Julian was just 17-years-old.

The two didn't have the best relationship, and Julian's relationship with his stepmom Yoko Ono was even worse, or at least became worse in the years following his death.

John was all about 'peace and love', but Julian didn't see him in that light and actually called his dad a 'hypocrite' in an interview with UK-based publication The Daily Telegraph, years after his father was murdered.

Although, Julian was reportedly inspiration for three of The Beatles' hit songs - 'Hey Jude', 'Good Night' and, of course, ‘Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds’.

But with John and Julian's mom Cynthia divorcing each other in 1968, Julian didn't see too much of him.

After John was murdered in December 1980, Julian expressed his confusion and resentment towards his father:

Speaking per the Tamba Bay Times, Julian talked about his resentment towards his dad.

“I’ve never really wanted to know the truth about how dad was with me. There was some very negative stuff talked about me … like when he said I’d come out of a whiskey bottle on a Saturday night. Stuff like that," he said.
