Close bond with Ringo

Despite the rocky relationships between Beatles members which resulted in the Fab Four's demise - especially the "volatile" relationship between Harrison and Paul McCartney - the guitarist always remained close to drummer Ringo Starr.

Even the revelation of George's affair with Ringo's wife Maureen Starkey in 1973 didn't wreck their friendship.

When Ringo found out about the affair, he said: "Better you than someone we don’t know."

Shortly after George's death, Ringo said: "George was really on my mind then."

He admitted that he had remained closest with George out of all his former bandmates, adding: "I miss him in my heart and in music."
