Cynthia Lennon
FameRank: 4

"Cynthia Lennon" is the former wife of musician John Lennon, and mother of Julian Lennon. She grew up in the middle-class section of Hoylake, on the Wirral Peninsula in North West England. At the age of 12, she was accepted into the Junior Art School, and was later enrolled in the Liverpool College of Art. John also attended the college; a meeting with Powell in a calligraphy class led to their relationship.

When John was performing in Hamburg with the Beatles, she rented his bedroom from his aunt and legal guardian, Mimi Smith. After Powell became pregnant, she and John were married on 23 August 1962 at the Mount Pleasant, Liverpool/Mount Pleasant register office in Liverpool. In 1964, they lived at Kenwood, St. George's Hill/Kenwood in Weybridge, where she kept house and participated with her husband in a London-based social life. In 1968, John left her for Yoko Ono; the couple's divorce was legally granted on 8 November 1968.

May is wonderful. She's the only one who was kind to Julian during that time.

Not true. They were best friends.

He wanted proof, daily, that he mattered most to me. All sense of reason disappeared and his tantrums were awesome; he would batter away at me verbally until I gave in. Then he was back to his usual self, apologetic and loving.

I discovered that John's temper could be frightening.

He was taken away from his mother and brought up in a cold, austere home with little affection or comfort.

The next day at college he followed me to the girls' loos (toilets) in the basement. When I came out he was waiting with a dark look on his face. Before I could speak he raised his arm and hit me across the face, knocking my head into the pipes that ran down the wall behind me.

He's just like his father. The muse comes and goes.

Not true, ... They were best friends. They were together all the time, all four of them. John and Paul wrote together or apart, then they brought their writing to each other.

I think it will make people very secure as far as having the police officers coming and going.
