John Lennon’s son Julian Lennon says he has never been a part of The Beatles’ “inner circle.”
“I’m not part of the inner circle — I never have been. You have to realize that when Dad left, when I was between 3 and 5, it was just Mum and me, and we had nothing to do with the Beatles or Dad. I visited him on the odd occasion but we were very much on the outside,” Julian, born to Lennon’s first wife Cynthia Lennon, said in a new interview with The Guardian.
He added, “I’m not upset about it. I’d rather be excited and impressed by what they did and continue to do. As a fan, I’m just as curious as anybody else; although I do find myself going, ‘How is it possible that there’s another Beatles film?'”
Julian, who was a child when Lennon died in 1980, is now 61.
“We’re best buddies. He tells me what he can, but things are pretty secret on the Beatles front,” Julian said, referring to his half-brother Sean Lennon.
