In a new interview with The Guardian, Julian Lennon – John Lennon’s son with his first wife Cynthia Lennon – opens up about a lifetime feeling like he’s an outsider never welcomed into the Beatles‘ “inner circle.” Julian says that he isn’t informed or consulted about new Beatles projects, admitting that “it’s news to me half the time.” “I’m not part of the inner circle — I never have been,” the 61-year-old Julian shared. “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.” Julian revealed that he visited John “on the odd occasion, but we were very much on the outside.” However, Julian does have a close relationship with his half-brother Sean Ono Lennon. ”I’m thankful that Sean and I get on like a house on fire — we’re best buddies,” Julian says, noting that Sean “tells me what he can, but things are pretty secret on the Beatles front.” (People)
