A TRUE STORY ABOUT LOVE, RESPECT AND MEMORY
(A HONEST STORY ABOUT LOVE, RESPECT AND MEMORY)
John Lennon met Yoko Ono in 1966 and fell in love with her at first sight.
In 1969, following his extramarital affair with Ono, he left his first wife Cynthia and married Yoko.
During the divorce, he gave Cynthia almost nothing of his millions, although his five-year-old son Julian remained with her.
At some point, Cynthia found herself in a difficult financial situation and decided to sell for a tidy sum the love letters and drawings of Lennon that she received when they were a young couple.
Many letters began with the words: “Sin, I love you very much,” and one can only imagine how hard it was for her to part with such a memory of Lennon, but she needed finances to live with her son.
The buyer was found immediately, paid the appointed amount without haggling and wished to remain anonymous.
A few days later, Cynthia received a package with all her letters and drawings from Lenon, which were carefully placed in frames and with a note attached - “Never sell your memory. With love, Paul McCartney"
