Speaking with Jonathan Clarke on the New York rock radio station Q104.3 about his career, the 60-year-old — whose mother is the late Maureen Starkey Tigrett, Starr's first wife — shared that he had a complicated relationship with The Beatles early in his life.
"I was in groups from a young, really young age, and I was getting press attention, but they were only paying me attention and they weren’t paying the rest of the band attention," Starkey went on. "And I got bit resentful of this, and that sort of got me into a place where I sort of shunned The Beatles for a long time.”
Despite this, he admitted that there were positives to his choice, telling Clarke, "I’m glad I didn’t, you know, because I got into other things."
These days, Starkey is a strong supporter of his father, The Beatles, and their legacy.
Like his father, Starkey has been a major presence in the music industry for decades. He recorded and toured with another legendary band, The Who, from 1996 to 2025, while he has also worked with other bands like Oasis, the Lightning Seeds, and the Semantics, among others.
