Something to read as we come upon the date of Lennon's assassination.

Interesting take on history. Mine? It was not Yoko that broke up the Beatles, it was their success. After "Abbey Road" and before that "Sgt. Pepper" what on earth could they do for an encore? I would include "Rubber Soul" and "Revolver" in that list. It was the pressure that they (and in some part the critics), put on themselves. {was it Shaw who said at critic is one who knows the way, but never learned how to drive}

Yoko may have been a catalyst but not the cause of the breakup of the Beatles.

Two people in a relationship, loving each other but each one having an "other" probably happens more often than we realise.

My two cents worth.

I'm not sure that I would necessarily believe anything I read on this site.
