Thoughts on all the age gaps? IIRC Yoko/John 8Yrs, Ringo/Mo 6Yrs (&they got married rlly young), Paul/Nancy 17Yrs, Paul/Heather 26Yrs (hmm), Ringo/Barb 7Yrs, Ringo/Nancy Andrews 7Yrs, John/May 10Yrs, etc. Also not a Beatle girl lol but you do talk about him, Eric Clapton married a woman 31Yrs his junior after Pattie 🤔
