In 1969, when The Beatles were parting ways, John Lennon told the band: "I'm breaking the group up. It feels good. It feels like a divorce."
But that's not the only public split Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr and honorary fifth Beatle, George Martin, endured; all of the bandmates have been through divorces in their personal lives, too.
