Paul at least seems to hold no hard feelings, he posted a lengthy tribute to Instagram. Shortly after the interview you referred to he said Jones called him up and "explained the situation" (without going into specifics) and that the two "laughed about" the incident. If Ringo doesn't post his own tribute that might speak volumes. Or that he simply wasn't as friendly with Jones as Paul in later years.
