Yoko Ono has shared an article made up of fans' messages supporting her over claims she caused the break up of the Beatles.
The late John Lennon's widow has often been accused over the years of being the one who was behind the iconic Liverpool band's demise in 1970, but in Peter Jackson's new Disney+ documentary, The Beatles: Get Back, it's clear she was notably very much in the background amid the group's final recordings.
The three-part film follows the Fab Four as they write, record and rehearse for what was to be the band's final gig.
The original material was shot by filmmaker Michael Lindsay-Hogg for his 1970 film Let It Be and Jackson has reworked the 57 hours of footage for a more detailed account of the Beatles' final project.
Yoko could be seen busying herself with knitting and reading a newspaper in the clips.
The article she posted by Uproxx features the headline: "Beatles Fans Think 'Get Back' Dispels The Idea That Yoko Ono Broke The Band Up And Peter Jackson Agrees."
Yoko later tweeted: "Our positive consciousness & resulting inner peace are the only elements which will heal our world. Now is the time we have to all focus on inner peace and replace the struggle with positive thoughts."
McCartney previously insisted he didn't think Yoko caused the breakdown of the Beatles, adding he felt she was only involved because of her love for John.
He said, "We thought she was intrusive because she used to sit in on the recording sessions and we'd never had anything like that.
But looking back on it, you think, 'The guy was totally in love with her. And you've just got to respect that'. So we did. And I do."
