Much like the world blames Ono for John Lennon’s decisions about his life, the same can be said of the Duchess of Sussex
. If you had asked me, before I went to have a look at the exhibition, I’d have told you that I didn’t know anything about Ono. Which would almost have been true.
I don’t know where I got this from – I’ve never googled her, never read a book or watched a documentary about her. But it’s just one of those– that Yoko, like Wallace Simpson, is a villainess, swooping in and taking a sledgehammer to an established British system that brought people joy., Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, was dubbed “the next Yoko Ono” – an easy, lazy, sexist way to blame a woman for decisions made by a man about his own future.
I thought, as I wandered around the exhibition, how crushing it must be to have made this much, this beautifully, to have such a staggering mind, and to still be described as an acolyte of Lennon. And I wondered if Meghan, Yoko’s successor apparent, might be slightly paralysed by the same thing. The world seems to be waiting for Meghan to fail, in punishment for her alleged crime of stealing away the once beloved and erstwhile most popular royal. Looking back at the public’s reaction to Yoko’s attempts to continue creating after Lennon’s death, she seems to have encountered much the same public appetite for failure and humiliation.
