Sex Pistols' John Lydon Discloses 'Horrifying' Secret After Wife Died

Known for his work with the Sex Pistols and later Public Image Limited, punk legend John Lydon has admitted that he sleeps with his late wife Nora's ashes every night. He described his thinking while recognizing that some individuals might find it a little unsettling.

Her spirit is in him and always will be, he declared.

She was cremated, and he sleeps with her ashes next to the bed, which may horrify some people.

He told The New Cue in an interview that it is "really, really lovely" and he felt immensely comforted by this.

After a five-year fight with Alzheimer's disease, John became Nora's devoted caretaker. Nora passed away in April at the age of 80. The couple had been dating ever since they first connected at Vivienne Westwood's apparel store, Sex, on Kings Road in Chelsea, in 1975. John's official Twitter account posted a lovely photo of the couple along with the sad news of her passing. "It is with a heavy heart that we share the sad news that Nora Forster, John Lydon's wife of nearly five decades, has passed away," said the statement.

Recently, Lydon has disclosed his unusual career choice. The Sex Pistols legend, 67-year-old John Lydon, has collaborated with US bike company Ionic to put his name on their Johnny Rotten bike, which was first introduced in the early 2000s and will now feature a design created by the rocker.

Ionic allegedly asked Johnny to officially participate, and when he said yes, the bike's new line now includes a drawing he made of himself performing along with his signature. The pushbike is pricey; the frame alone is advertised at $2,250 (£1,775), while the complete equipment costs £7,730 (£6,810).

The partnership is not the first to make headlines; in 2008, Johnny stunned fans by appearing in a £5 million television commercial for Country Life Butter, a decision he later defended. After claiming that his old band Sex Pistols was 'tastelessly' attempting to 'cash in' on the Queen's death with their punk track God Save The Queen in September of last year, the singer released their most recent endeavor.

He claimed it was "disrespectful" to the Royal Family and that he was "distancing" himself from any band promotion of their 1977 song. God Save the Queen, a renowned anti-royalist song that was released right before the Queen's Silver Jubilee, was written by Johnny.
