Julian Lennon, the son of murdered Beatles star John, has revealed his bitterness that his father was so often absent. In a message posted on www.julianlennon.com, he blamed John's fear of fatherhood and his relationship with Yoko Ono for the distance that came between them.
"I had a great deal of anger towards Dad because of his negligence and his attitude to peace and love, that peace and love never came home to me," he wrote.
“Hey Jude” was written for Julian by Paul McCartney to help Julian through his parents’ divorce. Julian has been quoted as saying that he felt closer to McCartney than to his own father. http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/John_Lennon
