No, pretty much everything I've read about The Beatles corroborates this, especially the fact that he beat his first wife and was incredibly controlling of Yoko. (It wasn't Yoko who broke up the Beatles, it was John.)I was always more fond of McCartney anyway. I've heard gossip online that Lennon was a bit of a creep with women. Of course it was rando's online saying this, so naturally we should be skeptical of those kind of claims. One women, who seemed to be a sort of female Steve Lightfoot type character, was sort of obsessed about making it known to the world that Lennon was a creep, allegedly. I remember either on IMDB forums or an old Youtube video about the subject, she said something kind of amusing that she claimed Lennon would say whenever they arrived at a new venue to perform. He'd announce to the band that he needed to find some receptive women so he could "get me balls drained". I choose to believe her because it's funny.
I suppose the whole Lightfoot conspiracy thing is Boomer cope for one nut with a gun being able to take someone out fairly easily. All you need to do is to get close and shoot them.
