When John was 4 (1944)
Never. They split during World War II, when Lennon's father Alfred was out of the country; his mother Julia moved in with another man, John "Bobby" Dykins, but never married him. (She also never corrected anyone who called her "Mrs. Dykins".)

Alfred returned after the war, hoping to either reconcile with Julia, or take young John for himself, but was unsuccessful. When Julia died in July 1958, she was still technically married to Alfred.
