Early Life

Before he was born, his parents share the love for dancing and singing and spent their free time in local ballroom circuits. However, when he was born, they no longer have time for their hobbies. Elsie was overprotective of Ringo and his father lost interest in his family. Instead, he spent long hours dancing and drinking in pubs.

Not long after, his parents separated and got divorced officially one year after. According to Ringo, he has no real memories of his father since the latter seldom visits him and doesn’t exert effort in bonding with him.

The Beatles

When he was 6, he suffered from appendicitis, and during his surgery, he contracted peritonitis. This caused him to be comatose, which lasted for several days. His recovery lasted for a year and caused him to miss school. By the time he was eight, he was still illiterate and was doing poorly in math. In 1953, he was infected with tuberculosis and again spent a lot of time in the hospital.

Finally, Ringo went to St. Silas, a primary school near his house in England. Then, he attended Dingle Vale Secondary Modern School, where he showed interest in drama and art.

Personal Life

In 1965, Ringo married Maureen Cox and had three children together named Zak, Jason, and Lee. However, they got divorced in 1975 due to his infidelities. According to him, he was a drunkard, absent father, and a wife-beater. Sadly, Maureen passed away in 1994 due to leukemia.

He was a railway worker, apprentice machinist, boat waiter, etc. While he was working for a manufacturer in Liverpool, he met Roy Trafford, who taught him the skiffle genre. His first band was with Eddie Miles and Roy Trafford. Later on, he joined the band, The Hurricanes, and performed at various clubs.

In 1962, he became a member of The Beatles. The band’s fans were not feeling him at the beginning but eventually started to love him. Their first album titled “Please Please Me” was launched in 1963 and it topped UK’s album charts. They release another album in the United States with the title, Introducing… The Beatles. Their last album, Let It Be, was launched in 1970 and peaked in the charts of many countries.
