She was a lovely lady who I've known since our early days together in Liverpool.'She was a good mother to Julian and will be missed by us all but I will always have great memories of our times together.'

It concludes with the words: 'I know you're safe above.'Cynthia met Lennon at art school in Liverpool in 1957 and the couple married just before Beatlemania transformed her husband from a jobbing musician into one of the most famous men in the world.At the height of the Beatles' early success, she was kept so far in the background that many of Lennon's female fans were not even aware of her existence, and she stayed at home bringing up Julian while the Fab Four toured the world and topped the charts. Cynthia Lennon, nee Powell, grew up in a middle-class community on the Wirral, met John Lennon while they were both students at the Liverpool College of Art.The pair married in 1962, when Cynthia was just 22, after she became pregnant with their son Julian.Beatles' members George Harrison, Paul McCartney, and The Beatles' manager, Brian Epstein - who was best man - all attended.The Lennons bought Kenwood, then a 22-bedroom home, in Weybridge, Surrey, for 20,000 in 1964. Kenwood became the place to visit for the other Beatles[footnoteRef:1], various American musicians and total strangers that Lennon had met the previous night in London nightclubs.

While she had suspicions of Lennon's infidelity over the years, with friends telling her that Lennon had had numerous affairs as far back as their time together at art college in Liverpool, Cynthia ignored the warnings.The Lennons' marriage troubles came to a head in February 1968 when Lennon drunkenly confessed to sleeping with other women during their marriage.Lennon suggested Cynthia take a holiday with friends. She returned to find her husband sitting across from Yoko Ono on the floor - staring into each other's eyes.In one of her book's she wrote that she then found Yoko's slippers outside their bedroom door - shocked and upset she left the house to stay with friends.After years of trouble, the marriage finally ended in August 1968 when Yoko Ono discovered she was pregnant.Fearing a lengthy divorce process, the couple settled outside of court, with Lennon agreeing to pay Cynthia 100,000 and give her custody of Julian.The divorce prompted Paul McCartney[footnoteRef:2] to pen the Beatles' classic Hey Jude to help Julian cope with his parents' separation. He changed the name Julian to Jude in the song. [2: Cantante integrante de la banda The Beatles]

The line 'take a sad song and make it better,' is about the Lennons' broken marriage and its impact on their son.Cynthia learned of Lennon's death on 8 December 1980, while she was staying with friends in London.She married Italian hotelier Roberto Bassanini in 1970, divorcing him in 1973. In 1976, she married John Twist, an engineer from Lancashire, but divorced him in 1983. The couple share a laugh together in 1964.

We are like walk-on parts in his life. We did spend 10 years together.'Recalling their early days, she said: 'You couldn't resist being around him. You couldn't resist watching what he was up to. I mean, he was a total rebel. Everybody was amazed by him.' Author Hunter Davies, who wrote the only authorized Beatles biography in 1968, described Cynthia as a 'lovely woman'.He said that unlike John, she was 'quiet and reserved and calm' and 'not a hippy at all.'He said their friends at art school never thought the relationship would last because they were so different.In her book, Cynthia described being mistreated by John. Julian was their only child together.He said: 'When I was writing the book I spent two years with them, visiting her home and spending time with her.'I think it was the attraction of opposites between them. When they got together at art school everyone was amazed - she was seen as refined and reserved and nobody thought they would last. DIVORCE PAPERS SHED LIGHT ON THE LENNON'S RELATIONSHIPA never-before-seen dossier detailing the bitter breakdown of John Lennon's marriage to his first wife Cynthia was uncovered in February after nearly 50 years.The five-page document, drafted by the solicitors dealing with the Beatle's divorce in 1968, reveals details of his increasing drug use and his affair with Yoko Ono.It centres on claims made by Dorothy Jarlett, Lennon's housekeeper of four years, on what she saw while working at the Lennon family home Kenwood in Weybridge, Surrey.The papers detail his mood swings, aggressive behaviour towards his young son Julian and heated arguments between him and Cynthia.Mrs Jarlett describes how Yoko Ono would visit the country pile while Cynthia was out of the country, and how she once found the pair in bed together.She reveals how Lennon became nonchalant towards his wife around 1967 - five years after they tied the knot - when the Beatles were at the height of their fame.She said Lennon was uninterested in playing the father figure role and that he would smack Julian if he misbehaved.The statement was made to Herbert Oppenheimer, Nathan and Vandyk - a firm of solicitors in London employed by Cynthia following the breakdown of the marriage.The document has never been seen before because Lennon and Cynthia settled out of court, with Lennon agreeing to pay her 100,000 and give her custody of Julian.Cynthia and her son Julian pictured together in 2006 at the opening of The Beatles' LOVE by Cirque du SoleilCynthia and her son Julian pictured together in 2006 at the opening of The Beatles' LOVE by Cirque du SoleilCynthia was often left to look after the couple's son Julian (pictured together in 2011) at home by herself as Lennon traversed the globe with The BeatlesCynthia was often left to look after the couple's son Julian (pictured together in 2011) at home by herself as Lennon traversed the globe with The BeatlesThe mother and son, who were extremely close, attend the unveiling of the John Lennon monument in 2010The mother and son, who were extremely close, attend the unveiling of the John Lennon monument in 2010Julian today released a moving song written in tribute to his mother.

Love-All (around)! As Andy Murray and Kim Sears gear up for their Saturday nuptials in his hometown of Dunblane, hundreds of locals get involved in wedding preparations

Andy Murray and Kim Sears are getting married in Dunblane this weekend Tennis star is a hero in his hometown and locals are already celebrating Bunting lines the streets and cartoons of the pair are in shop Windows

ByCAROLINE MCGUIRE FOR MAILONLINEPUBLISHED:20:21 GMT, 8 April 2015|UPDATED:20:33 GMT, 8 April 2015

As Andy Murray and Kim Sears prepare for their nuptials in his home town of Dunblane on Saturday, the local residents are also getting ready for the big day.The inhabitants of the Scottish cathedral town have gone into overdrive for wedding of their most famous resident, lining the streets with bunting and creating special-themed produce in many of the stories.Since the Wimbledon champion announced his plans to say 'I do' at the cathedral, there have also been plans to line the streets with well-wishers as the couple make their way to the venue.

Messages to the happy couple are in many of the shop windows and several business owners have already sent gifts to either Andy, 27, or his bride-to-be ahead of the big day.Lesley Anderson, 52, who owns Point Nouveau Bridal shop in Dunblane, sent a crystal-covered garter to Kim Sears six weeks ago and received kind a thank you note which said it was 'gorgeous'.

The ivory-coloured piece is hand-embroidered on the inside with the couple's initials and wedding date and was designed by Nicola Ure from K C Bridal specialists in Falkirk.A handmade card featuring Andy and Kim, 27, on the front drawn by local artist Lorna Brown accompanied the garter.The card shows Andy in his kilt holding a tennis racket and Kim in her dress along with their Border Terriers.Kim's reply to the gifts read: 'Dear Lesley and all at Point Nouveau Bridal.'Just a little note to say a huge thank you for the gorgeous gift Nicola made for me.'It was very kind of you and I hadn't found a garter yet so thanks ever so much.'Also, that card of Lorna Brown's is absolutely fabulous! It really made us giggle, especially our two little dogs in the background!'We are really excited for our big day in a month's time and are happy to be celebrating our wedding in Dunblane.'Thank you again for your thoughtfulness and generosity. Best wishes, Kim Sears X.'

Lesley is close friends with Andy's grandmother, Shirley Erskine, 83 and gave the garter and card to her to take to Kim.She said: 'Out of the blue we got this beautiful card. To be honest we never ever thought we would hear very much at all so when we got this beautiful card we were chuffed to bits.'I was absolutely delighted. This was such a personal thing. We were really, really chuffed.Andy continues to maintain a close bond with the town - after winning Wimbledon, he shook hands with all the shop owners on the Dunblane High street.When Murray, 27, says 'I do' on April 11, the guests wishing them well will be largely a gathering of close family and friends.

Murray's status as one of the world's best tennis players means he has mixed with everyone from A-list celebrities such as James Corden to the Prime Minister and even the Queen.But the biggest name likely to be in attendance at Dunblane Cathedral, where the couple are tying the knot, is one-time British tennis star Tim Henman.Indeed, when the sport's world number one, Novak Djokovic, was asked by a journalist recently if he would be attending the celebration, he replied with a curt: 'Not invited', before following up with a more charitable: 'But I wish him all the best.'Murray has said: 'There won't be any celebrities as such.'I don't have any celebrity friends so it wasn't something that was planned.'[It'll be] Everyone who we're close to, people we've spent a lot of time with in the past but also people we see ourselves spending time with in the future.'That's how we came up with the names. Pretty much everything is done now and under control. I'm sure a few things will come up next week but it's pretty much sorted.'There will be names from the tennis world in attendance but certainly not players who are as well known as the likes of Nadal or Federer.Murray has invited Dutch doubles player Jules Rojer, who he spends time with while training in Miami and Davis Cup team mate James Ward.Another British pro Jamie Delgado will also attend.For the 27-year-old's many fans and friends in the town, at least part of the wedding of the year will be a spectator sport, played out on the streets of the community.It is understood local residents and businesses urged the former Wimbledon champion to hold the April 11 service at the cathedral rather than at luxury hotel Cromlix House in nearby Kinbuck so they too could toast his big day. The reception will be held at Cromlix, which Murray owns.The 300-seat, 12th century cathedral is much bigger than the chapel at Cromlix, which seats only 28. Thousands are expected to line Dunblane High Street on the day.Murray's uncle Niall Erskine said: 'I'm sure it will be a popular decision, as he's had so much support from the people of Dunblane in the past.Andy has admitted that, food aside, he's left much of the preparation for the big day to his betrothed: 'Kim's been pretty much doing it''I've tried to help out when she has asked, but I haven't been over-involved. I did all the food and cake tasting which I really enjoyed, although I didn't think I was going to.He added: 'It's a big day for Kim. Pretty much everything is taken care of now. She seems fairly relaxed but as we get closer that might change.'

Julia Roberts' historic Hawaiian estate hits the market for $30MILLION

ByDAILYMAIL.COM REPORTERPUBLISHED:22:48 GMT, 7 April 2015|UPDATED:08:06 GMT, 8 April 2015

Julia Roberts is looking to unload her historic Hawaiian sugar plantation-era home and for a cool $30 million it can all be yours.Off Kauai's north shore in Hanalei, the six bedroom main house first built in 1915 by sugar plantation executive Hans Peter Fay appears at first blush as almost rustic for a star of Roberts' caliber.But the asking price--$29,850,000 to be precise--not only gets you the historic home but also 2 beachfront acres of prime Hawaii real estate, a one-bedroom guest cottage and the right to brag that you live in the Pretty Woman's former digs.According toPacific Business News, Roberts and her husband Danny Moder purchased the home in 2011 for just under $14 million--$5 million below asking price.The Fay Estate, as it's known, is in lofty company on exclusive Hanalei Bay. Nearby, real estate is owned by such notables as Chuck Norris, Mark Zuckerberg andOakley founder James Jannard, the Pacific Business News reports.Fay Estate sits well back from its 200 feet of pristine beach, which was not always the case according to ahistory of the estate.In 1957, a tidal wave struck the home and shoved it back to the center of the property. The top of the home miraculously remained intact and the cottage was built from the wreckage while crews were rebuilding the bottom floor.Today, the home and cottage are being rented out by Roberts, so if you can't afford to own, you can live like a movie star during your vacation to the Aloha State.Thehouse rentsstarting at $1,500 per night. The cottage goes for a more reasonable $350 per night.
