When I was young John was my favorite Beatle. But now that I've learned about the actual men, Paul was the only Beatle that had always been a decent person.

Wow, I just looked into it, and McCartney hasn't really had any controversies. I was under the impression that they were all rather awful people. Any idea wny?

He said in an interview that he beat his 1st wife so much that he understood why she cheated on him with George.

George Harrison was a decent dude, no?

He cheated on his wife with Ringo's wife. He could have (and did) have any woman he wanted but he slept with his friend's wife.

To be fair, there was a lot of wife swapping going down at that time. Harrison pretty much gave Patty Boyd to Eric Clapton, which is also pretty weird.

That was after and probably Patty trying to get back at George. It's only ok if its consensual. She wasn't ok with it.
