What are you implying then if that's not the comment you're making? I'm not that familiar with the case.

She arranged for the bodyguard to take a leave of absence the week before it happened, with him scheduled to return on December 9th, the day after John was shot. That’s … deeply suspicious. She was having an affair with an art dealer who had been implicated in the murder of another wealthy widow. She changed John’s will and named the art dealer in it. She moved her other lover into the Dakota the very night John was killed. These things actually happened and I find them troubling to say the least.

I really wish her fuck-awful caterwauling could be cancelled out of the beginning of Merry Christmas War Is Over which we all have to endure annually. Fuck me, that woman could not sing.

I think both of them were self absorbed arseholes at the time, and she gives me the creeps.

You forget they are of a generation that did that type of thing, my parents are in their 80’s they have left everything to each other that is not unusual. As much as I love him as a song writer in this period of his life he was an arsehole, & he hurt lots of people who loved him him Yoko, Paul his son Julian, he eventually realised it & tried to make amends at least to Sean & Yoko & I think eventually to Paul & the rest of the band. Not sure witchcraft had a lot to do with it.

Interesting thread, but this comment is mad. John Lennon was the equivalent of a billionaire in today’s money. He wasn’t just some bloke, he was one of the biggest - if not the biggest - commodities in the world. It really isn’t the same as your mum and dad, unless your mum and dad were Paul and Linda or something.

Also, it absolutely was sexual harassment and May Pang should sue the Lennon estate for every penny she can squeeze out of them. It’s about time Yoko Ono got some sort of comeuppance for her shitty behaviour. 50 years too late, but better late than never.

Why is it mad? So he wasn’t a bloke from Liverpool according to you he was a billionaire, because if you have money that stops you from having feelings & emotions the same as poorer people. ( sure you don’t know who to trust)
May pang choose to live with John Lennon no one made her ( I actually think she was good for him)
you don’t know what went on in the background where those rumours ( if indeed they are fact) of bad behaviour. When you are 90 even having not being in the public eye & call you out for your bad behaviour over your lifetime. Stop dehumanising her a person you don’t even know.

This is hilarious. Yoko Ono is a BILLIONAIRE, @Catpuss66 . She honestly doesn’t need you to advocate for her on Mumsnet.

So, she’s 90, so what? She still sexually harassed her 21 year old employee.

Backtoreality1 · 13/11/2023 16:40

You realise you are quoting the Daily Mail.......

Anonymous45789 · 13/11/2023 17:26

@Backtoreality1 Is there some type of protocol for making comments on Daily Mail articles that I’m not aware of?

What difference does her being a billionaire got to do with anything. You have a really big chip on your shoulder called jealousy. Would you be this outspoken about anyone else without billions…. Probably not. Not sure I would have wanted her life. How do you know she sexually harassed a 21 yr old anymore than your Dad or mom did back in the day. You need proof apart from the daily mail.

Oh, I get it. May Pang made it all up.

Poor old Yoko, eh? Always the victim, never the perpetrator.

No proof then…….

May Pang wrote a book about her time working for the Lennons. It was published in the mid-80s, I don’t know whether it’s still in print. Probably not, as he was a lot more abusive than she claims in this article and the book doesn’t pull any punches - it describes every episode where Lennon lost control and had his hands around her neck. She was very lucky he didn’t kill her. Harry Nilsson had to pull him off at least twice.

As far as this being a story made up to slander Yoko Ono, that’s nonsense. Even John went on record to say that Yoko had fixed it for May Pang to be his girlfriend.

How long after the 'Lost Weekend' finished did Sean (dob5/10/75) come along and did anyone see any photos of Yoko in a pregnant state?

LoveMySituation · 19/11/2023 23:24

Sean was born on the 9th October, not the 5th. Yoko had a cesarean, so he would share his father's birthdate
