Talk:Maureen Starkey Tigrett

Let It Be
"...and also was the only Beatle wife in attendance at the rooftop concert in 1969." - I don't think this is true, at least Yoko Ono was there as well, you can see it on the video.

Yoko wasn't a Beatle wife during the rooftop concert as she married John in March 1969; the concert took place on January 30th 1969. Apepper 11:24, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Beatles wives
To read and discuss my proposal to merge this into a new overview article please head over to Talk:Cynthia Powell. --kingboyk 22:35, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Possible serious problems
On October 12, an anonymous editor edited a series of articles, putting in what appears to be completely bogus information. The bulk of this article appears to be based on that information. Someone needs to do some verification work... --jpgordon&#8711;&#8710;&#8711;&#8710; 05:04, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

I've noticed this. Can anyone change it? Tapirape 00:02, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Name
Shouldn't her name be down as Maureen Cox Starkey Tigrett? 86.29.224.48 (talk) 15:32, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree with "Maureen Starkey Tigrett".--andreasegde (talk) 11:40, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Similarly we have "Cox enjoyed the closeness of Cynthia Lennon and Pattie Harrison . . . " Was Pattie Boyd ever known as Pattie Harrison? I do not recall that. Unlike Maureen Starkey or Cynthia Lennon, Boyd was well known under her maiden name before her marriage, and as far as I know she kept it. Cross Reference (talk) 01:18, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

Picture?
Is there a reason why there isn't a picture of Maureen on this page? There are plenty of them out there especially when she was with Ringo.

Can someone update the picture of her with the remastered version from the Something video on the beatles’ youtube channel? Getrobbed (talk) 05:56, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

GA
I will be working on this from now on to get it to a GA rating.--andreasegde (talk) 12:17, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Maureen / George Harrison
Why not mention the song about Maureen performed by George Harrison at the January 1969 "Get Back" sessions?

"Everybody's finger-pickin', B and C and D and ...." and the chorus is simply "Maureen, oh Maureen" over and over.

Anyone know the work of the Beatles and how to write a Wikipedia entry properly?

Maureen's affair with George Harrison
Should Maureen's affair with George be included in the article in a more comprehensive way? I know there was one incident when the Harrisons were visiting the Starkeys for a dinner party or something and George abruptly announced that he was in love with Maureen, thus incensing Ringo, upsetting Maureen and embarrassing Pattie to tears and she locked herself in the bathroom. Despite this, George continued his affair with Maureen and I know that John disliked what George did and described it as virtual incest, but why would he describe it as incest? It's not like George was having an affair with his own sister Louise, which definitely constitutes incest, but I don't know how Paul felt about it, since he never commented on this.

My theory of why The Beatles' first marriages and/or relationships failed and ended in divorce was because of the fame coming on so abruptly and the fact that they married in their early twenties (in Paul's case, he was in a domestic partnership with actress Jane Asher, but he never married her.) Paul was sensible enough not to marry too young or too early, because otherwise he wouldn't have settled down into matrimonial bliss with Linda.61.69.217.3 (talk) 12:36, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I believe that your theory is correct. Regardless, the article has been updated by other during the past five years to more thoroughly capture Maureen's affair with George Harrison. I don't know how much more WP:RS information is available to expand upon it at this point, given Maureen's very untimely death at the age of 48 in 1994. Thank you, IP editor, for your suggestions!--FeralOink (talk) 06:52, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
