A woman who has had a lifelong obsession with The Beatles has bought THREE of their childhood homes - but it doesn't look like she'll complete the set.

Jackie Homes was just two years old when John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and George Harrison went their separate ways.

But when she saw that Ringo Starr's childhood home was up for sale, she just had to snap it up.

It joins George Harrison's childhood home and John Lennon's mum's house in her collection.

But just last year, Sir Paul McCartney's childhood home at 72 Western Avenue, Speke, was sold in just six minutes for £150,000 by a local mystery buyer - not thought to be Jackie.

The 48-year-old paid £15,000 more than the guide price for the modest Victorian mid-terrace in Admiral Grove, Liverpool, is where young Ringo - then Richard Starkey - learned to play the drums.

The property is where the young Beatles moved with his mother Elsie Starkey at the time his parents separated in 1943, when he was aged three.

Jackie bagged the property in a sale at Liverpool's legendary Cavern Club last week.

"I am absolutely made up. The Beatles and their music have been a huge part of my life as they have been for so many," she told the Mail Online.

"It is lovely to own another piece of Beatles history. Now I'm just hoping to find a Beatles fan to rent it to who will love and appreciate it.

"It's all about the peace and love."

In October 2013, she bought John Lennon's mum Julia's home at 9 Newcastle Road in Wavertree sold at auction for £480,000. John lived nearby in Allerton, Liverpool, with aunt Mimi but was a regular visitor to the house.

And in October 2014 George Harrison's former home, 26 Upton Green, in Speke, sold for £156,000.

After buying Julia Lennon's home, Jackie said: “I love [the Beatles] enough to own two of their houses.”

Part of the official Beatles Tour, Jackie's newest purchase - the Starkey home - still attracts fans daily.

It went under the hammer at the Fab Four's old stomping ground, The Cavern Club in Liverpool.

While Ms Holmes will be renting out Ringo and George's childhood homes, she is planning a permanent move from London to Liverpool to live in Julia Lennon's former house as John is her favourite band member.
