Paul McCartney to wed for 3rd time |
|
Former Beatle Sir Paul McCartney is expected to marry for a third time later by tying the knot with Nancy Shevell at a London register office, BBC reported Saturday.
New Yorker Ms Shevell, 51, is an heiress to a trucking fortune.
The wedding is expected to take place at Old Marylebone Town Hall on Sunday. The town hall is where Sir Paul married first wife Linda Eastman - also an American - in 1969.
She died in 1998 and Sir Paul, 69, split from second wife Heather Mills during an acrimonious divorce in 2008.
"Given his last marriage to Heather Mills obviously was a fairly lavish, spectacular do and look how that ended... I think this time round it's going to be a far quieter, more civilized affair," Mirror showbiz journalist Clemmie Moodie said.
"It's just close family, a few friends - we believe about 30 people, including his five children - so far more intimate."
Earlier this month, Ms Shevell moved in with Sir Paul at his home in St John's Wood, London, where it is believed a reception will take place.
Ms Shevell, who was married for 20 years to American lawyer and political candidate Bruce Blakeman, became engaged to Sir Paul in May.
The couple began dating four years ago in the upmarket Hamptons area of Long Island. Sir Paul's eldest daughter, Mary, also married at the register office last year.
Ms Shevell is a board member of New York's transportation authority and vice-president of her family haulage firm.
But the wedding is expected to mean an end to her work in the family business and her leaving her position on the board of the transportation body.
Ms Shevell told the New York Post she would "love" the couple to live in the U.S. but she would "probably" move to England after the wedding.

`비틀스' 매카트니 오늘 세번째 결혼식
비틀스 멤버였던 폴 매카트니(69)가 9일(현지시간) 영국 런던에서 4년 가까이 교제해온 연인 낸시 쉬벨(51)과의 결혼식을 올린다고 인디펜던스 등 영국 매체들이 보도했다.
결혼식은 `올드 매럴러번 타운홀'에서 매카트니 슬하의 다섯 자녀를 포함, 약 30명만 참석한 가운데 열리며, 런던 북서부 세인트 존 우드의 매카트니 자택 뒤뜰에서 피로연이 이어진다고 매체들은 전했다.
인디펜던트는 결혼식장이 매카트니가 사별한 첫째 부인 린다 이스트만과 결혼한 곳이며, 결혼식 날짜는 비틀스의 전설을 함께 만든 고(故) 존 레논의 생일이라는 점에서 의미가 특별하다고 소개했다.
또 매카트니의 형제인 마이크 맥기어가 신랑 들러리를 서며, 이혼한 둘째 부인 헤더 밀스와 사이에서 난 7살짜리 딸 베아트리체가 화동을 맡을 예정이다.
매카트니는 가업으로 물려받은 운송회사를 운영하는 뉴욕의 기업가인 쉬벨과 2007년 11월부터 교제하다 올 봄 약혼했다.
그는 첫 부인 린다 이스트만을 1998년 유방암으로 잃었으며, 2007년 3월 거액의 위자료를 주고 둘째 부인 밀스와 이혼했다.
