She was left behind on the train station when Lennon left for India with the guys to see the Yogi. That was the symbolic end of their relationship. He didn’t turn around to get her but kept going? I wouldn’t leave my wife behind on a trip. So he showed his true colors then towards her. She was way too kind and caring for him. He didn’t deserve her. He found someone else and left her and his only son. And look how that turned out. A bad outcome. RIP Cynthia Powell

Yeah, and some people say I’m a conspiracy nut for believing that Joko was bad for him. She was a bad omen and led him to his doom. I don’t care what people say. Look at what happened to him. I’ve always said a good woman can lift you up and a bad woman can destroy you. Cynthia was a good woman. Joko is not! She’s a manipulator. She even blackmailed him initially by saying if he broke up with her she would kill herself. That’s emotional blackmail! What kind of woman says that? A sick one! If a woman said that to me I’d kick her to the curb and say go ahead! I’m done with you! That’s a load of BS! I firmly believe Lennon would still be alive if he never met her. You and I agree. I’m pleased that someone else get it besides me. But it’s too late now. Lennon paid a bitter price. He deserved better.

You are so right - John was always my least favourite Beatle - my mom was dumped by my dad and his step son led the life of a prince - but it all works out in the end I have a good relationship with my dad - my step brother is a pure waste of space and absolute lazy - but I’ve worked hard and can hold my head up - I did it on my own - and so can Julian Lennon - whatever he’s accomplished - and his music is beautiful and resonates with so many. ❤️❤️❤️

£19k for house then bought a mansion, as she said. In 1965, my parents were able to buy a big house for £15k. It cost £5k when built in 1905. Only tripled in £s in 60 years. Jump in 1969 (housing act), several other jumps till we sold it when Mum died in 2012 for over 1,000 times what Dad paid. A story of mad house price changes in relation to incomes and of mad widening of incomes between high and low paid.

@silentwitness4843 Жыл бұрын

Not understanding some comments. Why would she say that John and Julian repaired their relationship and were best of friends? Julian says differently. I find it interesting that she refers to herself as the oldest (true) at the time she was in college still (no Beatles yet, per se) and refers to them as children, students. Ringo is older than John, and her. So, that was honest because she is referring to the time before Ringo joined.

I do not feel any bit of sadness. I am happy for her. She is grateful, thankful in fact that she got famous, she got admirers, she got into magazine, she got interviews, she got to see what popularity meant, she got adored, she saw the beautiful side of things. She got married to a Beatle. She knew eventually John would go away. But she was, I believe, never got bitter. She was happy she had spot in the limelight, envied and cherised by fans. Luck girl you Cynthia.

Later on she was more open to telling about his abuses, let’s go easy on the genius , Einstein was a genius, John was a talented song writer , however his you treat woman and your son is a different story , I liked his music when I was young. After I grew up looking back it was really dated and looks silly now , especially the bed ins those interviews, he sounded like a teenager, not an adult , normally I don’t care , but the way he treated people woman and men , and blamed everything on his childhood, humbug
