Linda Eastman Bought Paul McCartney a White Rabbit After They First Started Dating
Paul McCartney knew he had to marry Linda Eastman after she bought him a white rabbit after one of their first dates. He loved the furry animal, and he found he was slowly falling in love with Eastman too. Paul McCartney met Linda Eastman in a London club in 1967.
In 1967, Paul and The Beatles were on top of the world. Meanwhile, Linda had just become a freelance photographer, steadily making friends in the British rock scene. It was only a matter of time before they officially met.
After celebrating the completion of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band at a party hosted by The Beatles’ manager, Brian Epstein, Paul, and some friends headed down to the famous Soho club, Bag O’Nails.
On that May evening, Georgie Fame and the Blue Flames were playing, and Paul sat at his own table. Coincidentally, Bag O’Nails was also Linda’s destination that night. She arrived at the club with her friends, The Animals. She was in London to shoot photos for a book called Rock and Other Four-Letter Words (per Ultimate Classic Rock).
