Lennon is no stranger to providing commentary on social issues and politics. Back in May, he commented on the use of the term “partner” in relationships. “When did it become woke to say ‘my partner?’ I mean it’s the least sexy moniker I can think of. It’s as if you’re working together at a law firm. I’d rather be called ‘my b—h.’”
His mother, Yoko Ono, is now 87. His late father would have turned 80 on October 9th this year.
