Does anyone know what his name was? He was a 'wealthy german newspaper proprietor' but did he have a name?

Her name = Nora Lydon nee Forster

Any help appreciated! Ta!

John Lydon's wife is Ari "Slits" Up's mother, I gather.

I still can't get over the fact he's in that horrid program. Get Me Outa Here? I prefer you frigging stay there and lose yourself in Jordan's ultra tits.

yes and as for those psychedelic day-glo sex-pistols shorts, he was wearing while being pecked alive by emus! that's the spirit of 77

that said, punkiness comes across as pragmatism in the jungle.

"He was a 'wealthy german newspaper proprietor'"

I thought that was Nora's (first?) husband / Ari's father rather than Nora's father?

According to any newspapers/internet reports that mention her, they define her as the heiress to her father's media/magazine empire.

I'll see if it's in that there Lydon autobiog, later. I'm sure it should be

I read that as "John Lydon's wife dead" and felt sort of sad, though I had no idea who she was.

I'm pretty sure it's not. I don't think PIL got much of a mention either...

I heard she was one of the Springers, led by the famously right wing Axel Springer. No relation to Jerry then, but closely related to fuck of a lot of cash. It'd be interesting to know just how Springer became so powerful. A lot of the German press pre-Hitler was of course Jewish owned, until the Nazis did their worst. It's unclear where the assets of Ullstein, Mosse etc. actually ended up, though after their respective dissolutions some kind of fire sale took place. Why are you asking?

not that I can find any particular evidence either way. Just how much of an 'heiress' is Mrs Lydon?
