In a 27 February interview with Vanity Fair, legendary English musician Paul McCartney revealed that Yoko Ono, the widow of fellow Beatles member John Lennon, shared with him that she thought Lennon could have been gay.

When the topic of conversation shifted to Ono, McCartney reflected on his thoughts of her, saying “She’s an artist. She’s kooky. But John loved her, and that’s the bottom line. You really can’t go beyond that, no matter what you might think.”

McCartney then went on to say “I swear she rang me shortly after John died and said, ‘You know, I think John might have been gay.’”

McCartney shared he wasn’t fully convinced by Ono, saying “I went, ‘I’m not sure.’ I said, ‘I don’t think so. Certainly not when I knew him.’ Because we’d been in the ’60s. We’d been around with loads and loads of girls. And I bumped into seeing him jacking…a lot of girl action. And I’d slept with John very often, but there was never anything. There was never a gesture, never an expression. It was nothing. So I had no reason to believe this at all.”
