Reclusive Yoko Ono, 90, hands over her business interests in The Beatles and John Lennon to their son Sean. Last month Sean Yoko Lennon was appointed a director at eight companies linked to Yoko and the Beatles.
After 50 years she moves to a farm purchased with John Lennon. Yoko quietly quits New York City to move to rural upstate farm she bought with late husband John Lennon.
She left the Upper West Side apartment she shared with John for decades during the pandemic and has chosen to remain on the couple's 600-acre farm full-time
John was famously murdered in the doorway of the elite Dakota Building, where the pair shared their apartment, on December 8, 1980
Yoko, who just turned 90, has quit New York City to move to a farm near Franklin.
Ailing and wheelchair-bound Yoko Ono is ‘slowing down,’ insiders say. “I’ve learned so much from having this illness. I’m thankful I went through that.” While it’s not clear what “illness” she was referring to, Ono, now 88, is still ailing, requires round-the-clock care and rarely leaves her sprawling apartment in The Dakota, a source close to her staff told The New York Post.
Yoko Ono appears to have stopped working and has handed many of her business interests over to her son Sean as she slows down at the age of 90.
The widow of Beatles legend John Lennon has been vocal for decades about global peace and used to personally attend exhibitions of her artworks.
But she has not been seen in public for more than a year and on October 5 we can reveal Sean Yoko Lennon was appointed a director at eight companies linked to Yoko and the Beatles, including Apple Corp.
He also joined the board at Lensolo, which deals with music rights of some of John’s solo work.
”Today, Ono has reported assets of $700 million. She still owns multimillion-dollar properties in Manhattan as well as hundreds of rolling acres in upstate Delaware County, public records show. She lives in the same sprawling nine-room apartment, on the seventh floor of The Dakota, that she once shared with John. She also keeps an adjacent unit at the West 72nd Street building for visitors, and two small one-room spaces without kitchens that she uses for staff, a source told The Post. And she has an office on the first floor that was once used by John as a recording studio.
But Ono has been shedding assets. In 2017, she sold a building at 110 W. 79th St. that she had owned since 1988. She bought the property, housing two residential units, for just under $500,000 and unloaded it for $6,450,000, public records show. In 2013, she sold a 5,700-square-foot penthouse at 49-51 Downing St. in the West Village, which Sean occupied for years, for $8.3 million.
