saw this link on another forum:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pete_Best
"Best's father, John Best, came from a family of sports promoters in Liverpool, who once owned and ran the Liverpool Stadium.[1][2] During World War II, he was a commissioned officer serving as a Physical Training Instructor in India, and was the Army's middleweight boxing champion.[1][3] Mona Best was born in Delhi, India, and was the daughter of a British army officer. Mona was training to become a doctor in the service of the Red Cross when she met John Best. After their marriage, both Best and his younger brother, Rory Best (b.1944) were born in India.[3][4] In 1945, the Best family sailed for four weeks to Liverpool on the Georgic, which was the last troop ship to leave India, and carried single and married soldiers who had previously been a part of General Sir William Slim's forces in south-east Asia. The ship docked in Liverpool on 25 December 1945.[5][6]
During 1960, Neil Aspinall became good friends with the young Best and subsequently rented a room in the Best's house. During one of the extended business trips of Best's father, Aspinall became romantically involved with Mona, who was 20 years his senior. Aspinall fathered a child by Mona—Vincent "Roag" Best, Mona's third son—who is Best's half-brother.[19] Aspinall later became The Beatles' road manager, and denied the story for years before publicly admitting that Roag was indeed his son.[20]"
Has this been hashed over already?
Any more info on this anyone?
