In 2005, Cynthia Lennon released her autobiography John, detailing her experience living with The Beatles member. Before that, however, the celebrity explained that she tried to avoid “the Lennon Legend.” Here’s what we learned about Lennon’s first wife.
To the world, John Lennon was a songwriter and vocalist for The Beatles. The musician was also husband to Cynthia Lennon, born Cynthia Powell. The two were married in 1962.
Together, Cynthia and John had a son — Julian Lennon, born in 1963. After John Lennon met Yoko Ono at an art exhibition, he quickly fell in love. As a result, he divorced Cynthia Lennon in 1968 and married Ono shortly after.
