Yoko Ono buries the hatchet with Lennon's mistress Washington | December 06, 2006 1:11:15 PM IST
After twenty years of giving hubby John Lennon's mistress the cold shoulder, the legendary 'Beatle's widow Yoko Ono has finally made peace with May Pang after an impromptu reunions in Iceland. Pang, who had an 18-month fling with Lennon during a stint as his personal assistant, bumped into Ono at a hotel in Iceland's capital Reykjavik, on what would have been the 'Imagine' singer's 66th birthday on 9 October. Lennon's former mistress revealed that she and Ono had literally bumped into each other while in Iceland, for they were staying at the same hotel. "By chance we were both staying in the same hotel on John's birthday. I went up to her and sort of said hello and I wished her well on her project, as she was unveiling a sculpture in Reykjavik," Contactmusic quoted Pang, as saying. The setting also seemed to be fitting, for Iceland has traditionally been neutral territory. "It was so funny because Iceland is neutral territory - it's where the politicians have had all those summit meetings. So it was quite fitting for us. I sat back down again and she came round again. She spotted me and started waving wildly at me, saying, 'Hi, hi, hi!'" Pang added. Pang became Lennon's assistant and mistress in 1973, when Ono approached her with a unique proposal. Ono, who thought May Pang would be an "ideal companion" for Lennon, asked her to "be with John and to help him out and see to it that he gets whatever he wanted." Lennon's personal life then fell into disrepair after Yoko kicked him out of the house. Lennon and Pang soon moved to Los Angeles, a period which has been dubbed the "lost weekend", though it lasted until the beginning of 1975. (ANI)
