John Lennon Estate: What Sean Ono Lennon, Julian Lennon Inherited

“The world is also the custodian of his legacy, I would say,” he told CBS Sunday Morning in December. “The music is timeless and it speaks for itself. I’m just doing my best to help make sure that the younger generation doesn’t forget about The Beatles and John and Yoko.”
Plus, the Oscar winner noted, “The Beatles’ music and John and Yoko’s legacy is something important for the world to cherish and be reminded of.”
As for what Sean believes is the most important part of their legacy? He emphasized it starts with their “peace and love.”
“My parents gave me so much,” he shared. “It’s the least I can do to try and support their legacy in my lifetime. I feel like I owe it to them. It’s a personal thing.”
John and Cynthia met as teenagers and tied the knot in 1962. They welcomed Julian—their only child—in 1963 before Cynthia filed for divorce in 1968 amid his affair with Yoko.
John and Yoko married the next year in 1969 and welcomed Sean in 1975.
