All About Paul McCartney's 5 Kids (And Which Ones Have Recorded with the Beatle)
In 1969, Paul McCartney wed Linda Eastman and adopted her daughter, Heather Louise, from a previous marriage.
The former Beatle and Eastman welcomed three more children together between 1969 and 1977: daughters Mary Anna and Stella Nina and son James Louis. McCartney shares his youngest daughter, Beatrice Milly, with ex-wife Heather Mills. The couple welcomed Beatrice in 2003.
Paul McCartney might be a music icon to the world, but at home, he’s just dad. The former Beatles legend has five children: Heather, Mary, Stella, James, and Beatrice.
The singer-songwriter married his first wife, Linda Eastman, in March 1969. McCartney adopted Eastman’s daughter from a previous marriage, Heather, the same year. Over the course of their nearly 30 year marriage, the couple welcomed three more children together: daughters Mary and Stella and son James.
Eastman died of breast cancer in 1998, with her four children and McCartney by her side, People reported. “Any love song I write is written for Linda,” the musician had told People the year before.
In 2002, he married model Heather Mills. The couple welcomed their only child, a daughter named Beatrice, in 2003. Mills and McCartney separated three years later. Currently, McCartney is married to businesswoman Nancy Shevell. After crossing paths by chance in the Hamptons in 2007, the couple began dating and wed in October 2011.
With his kids all grown up, McCartney’s relationship with them has evolved. “As far as being a dad is concerned, I’ve always just tried to give my kids a bit of guidance, if they seem to need it—but that was mainly when they were younger,” he said in a 2023 interview posted to his official website.
“Now that they are older, they’re guiding me! They don’t need so much guidance these days but if there’s ever a problem, I’m very happy to be the guy they come to,” he added.
