Two events on August 22, 1968, Ringo Starr quit The Beatles during the White Album sessions when the tension between band members became too much for him.Ringo's exit was kept secret and he would come back to the sessions about a week later.

On that same day John Lennon's wife, Cynthia, sued John for divorce after discovering Yoko Ono was living in their London home.

Then on August 22, 1969, The Beatles met at John Lennon's home for their final photo session. Photographs from the shoot formed the front and back covers of the album Hey Jude.
