Ringo Starr Was the Only Beatle to Fly to Yoko Ono's Side After John Lennon's Death

Saturday, April 10, 2021

Former Beatle John Lennon was gunned down in front of his New York City home in December of 1980.

Of the three remaining Beatles – Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr – only the band’s drummer, Starr, immediately went to visit Lennon’s widow, Yoko Ono.

Ono, however, refused to see Starr’s fiancée Barbara Bach.

Shot several times outside his Dakota building home by a deranged fan in December of 1980, Lennon died almost immediately. The night of his shooting, an ABC producer was injured in a motorcycle accident and like Lennon, was rushed to St. Luke’s Roosevelt Hospital in Manhattan (now called Mount Sinai West).

He may have been injured almost at the same time as the ambush on Lennon outside of his home at The Dakota building.
