A Nancy girl


I found this photo on the McCartney photo blog the other day.   And it just made me smile.   I often see photos of fans with Beatles wives or former wives.   I  have met several myself.  But I have never seen a photo of anyone with Paul's current bride, Nancy.    This young girl's smile just made my day.  She is obviously so happy to have met Mrs. McCartney before a Paul concert.  It was nice to Nancy to pose for this photo with the young fan.

  1. So adorable!!!

    I know it's a weird thing to point out (and it's not particularly apparent in this photo) but I've always thought Nancy looks a little like Paul's 60's fling, Maggie McGivern!

    Man, since getting together with Paul, Nancy's been to the White House and the Kennedy Center with the Obamas, gone to the Olympics, the Super Bowl and who knows where else! She's living the life!

    A kind've "negative" thing about Nance.....at the time she hooked up with Macca, she was sitting on the board of the MTA (which runs the New York City transit system, the subways, the buses, everything). And it was during a really bad time for the city, and fares were going up....but she was suddenly absent from all the hearings and the meetings! I think the Daily News, or the New York Post, ran an article shaming her for being in London when there were all these hearings, poor working folk and old ladies and the like begging the MTA not to raise the fares.

    But....to be fair...could you blame her?

    (so I don't see Nancy as a villain at all.....I think we all can agree that, bar none, the witchiest of all Beatle women has to be Heather Mills. Heather makes Yoko at her worst look like Glenda The Good Witch of the North!)

    2. read the mta was happy when she resigned because she was not only absent so much but really didn't participate when there and agree the mta board seriously needs people really wanting to help anyway

  2. Nancy does resemble Maggie with the long dark hair and being slim but Maggie was beautiful. It's true about the absent meetings but she is very very wealthy in her own so she probably didn't care. She and Macca seem to still be in the honeymoon stage and that's a great thing!

    1. Absolutely. "She is very very wealthy in her own so she probably didn't care". Exactly the problem with people who sit on the board of the MTA (Metropolitan Transit Authority).

      yeah, I don't think Nancy is the spitting image of Maggie, and she is decades older than the pictures of Maggie I'm comparing her to....but there is a slight resemblance....(as you noted). I have the greatest crush on Maggie so you'll get no argument from me about her beauty!

      I think it's funny that the Beatles all wound up with Americans!
