I recall having a meal in her restaurant in central London during the early 70's.

Quite why John left her for Ono I have never been clear on.

RIP Cynthia.

I don't think she has made a claim to fame, ummm.

She was only married to Lennon for five or six years and since their divorce has had two or three more failed marriages. It's true that she has made a few bob from being, albeit briefly, "Mrs John Lennon" (whom she would probably not have married had she not become pregnant) by writing biographies and so on. But if people are daft enough to pay good money for scribblings that are really of liitle interest other than to the people to who they refer, then good luck to her. Although I've never read them it could be that her books are somewhat akin to Beatles' music - popular but not very good !!!

[ummmm]

She changed her name back to Lennon by deed poll.

I agree about the Beatles songs, they were OK, but nothing spectacular. In my opinion, Lennon and McCartney were not the best songwriters around !

It's odd that even tribute threads to the late departed bring out the hate-merchants - some people must lead very sad lives.

Always thought that Cynthia had a raw deal but no evidence to substantiate this. May she rest in peace.

New Judge If I could jump up and down for joy over what you said I would. FINALLY somebody is voicing an opinion that is so similar to my own. I have never been able to get those 4. How refreshing!

R.I.P Cynthia,personally I think she was well rid of John who I was never fond off.Whenever Imagine comes on the radio it's a race to which I reach for first,the off switch or a sick bag

I think we sing from the same hymn sheet on this particular subject and not a Lennon anthem either. :-)

// Good on John for returning his M.B.E as a protest about the Vietnam war.//

typical empty headed gesture - the Brits didnt send troops to the Vietnam War s he had very little to protest about

I never liked The King either. I remember seeing him on his first appearance on the Ed Sullivan show and my girlfriend and I being emphatic that such a disgusting person as that would never go anywhere.

I like the Beatles music. I wish Paul McCartney would give up singing now though. He's definitely passed his best!

RIP, Cynthia.

I wish paul McCartney would leave the Grecian for men alone

He must have a mirror
