Good day, sunshine!
Paul McCartneyand his wife,Nancy Shevell,soaked up some tropical rays as they enjoyed a beach day on the island of St. Bart’s on Wednesday.
The music icon, 81, sported a long-sleeved black shirt and sunset-print shorts as he joyfully made his way along the sand, hair flowing behind him.
Shevell, 64, waded through the water in black shorts and a red, pink, orange and white top in a playful swirling pattern.
The trip appears to be an annual tradition for the couple, who were seen on another vacation in St. Bart’s in March 2023.
The couple are regulars on the island, where they typically spend time relaxing on the beach, partaking in wellness routines and checking out the designer boutiques in its capital, Gustavia.
An eyewitness told the photo agency Mega, “They have well established habits around relaxation and well being when they are on the island, making sure to choose top-of-the-range, luxury villas to make the most of their break. This time was no exception.”
A source added of the couple, “They seemed as loved up as ever during their trip. Paul looked super fit and youthful for his age as he made sure to enjoy regular swims and he only had eyes for Nancy as they floated around in the waves together.”
The Beatles member began dating Shevell in 2007 after he met the New York-based businesswoman in the Hamptons. Shortly after, McCartney told theSunday Times, “I just like being in love.”
The couple got engaged in May 2011 andtied the knotthat October at the Old Marylebone Town Hall in London. The music legend’s daughter,Stella McCartney, designed the couple’s wedding looks for the occasion. Guests included Ringo Starr and wife Barbara Bach, and George Harrison’s widow, Olivia Harrison.
In October, McCartney marked 12 years of marriage to Shevell with asweet tributeon Instagram.
“Happy anniversary to my lovely wife, Nancy. Let’s have a great one - Paul 💘,” the musician wrote, alongsidea photoof the pair posing together outside.
Ahead of Valentine’s Day last year, McCartney reflected on what being a husband means to him in apost on his website.
“I see it as just trying to be good to my wife Nancy and trying to be considerate and romantic,” he wrote, noting that he can go a bit overboard for the holiday.

“I completely overdo Valentine’s Day! I mean, there’s not just one card, there are cards hidden around the room, and sometimes things even spill into the next day — it’s completely silly. If there’s an excuse to have some fun, I overdo it!” he admitted.

McCartney added that he loves being the person Shevell “relies on.”
“I am very proud, in fact, to be ‘The Guy’ there. And I know she is grateful. So that’s my role as a husband: it’s to be the strength and the romance at the same time,” he wrote. “I don’t think I consciously chose to be that way. It’s just how I do things.”
McCartney was previously married to Linda McCartney from 1969 until her death in 1998, and Heather Mills from 2022 until 2008.
