Rare Vintage Photos of Celebrity Weddings of the 1970s

Ringo Starr met Liverpool hairdresser Maureen Cox at the famous Cavern Club during the early Beatles years. She quickly became one of the band’s most devoted fans before romance blossomed. They married on February 11, 1965, though photos of the wedding remained popular in Beatles coverage throughout the 1970s.

As the Beatles broke up and the music world changed, their relationship also faced new pressures. The couple had three children but eventually separated and divorced in 1975. Starr later remarried actress Barbara Bach, while Cox largely stepped away from public life after the marriage ended.
