PAUL MCCARTNEY DONATES TO FIANCE CHARITY AGAIN
May 9 2011
London, U.K. – Love is a complex thing. Despite centuries, millennia even, of love and marriage, no one has ever truly figured it out. Love though remains one of the most potent of human experiences, explored through art, law, and religion just as 
potently now as it ever has been. Despite all our many failures, we keep trying to fully understand love, keep trying to navigate through its complex and winding corridors, both as a species and as individuals.
For many, part of that exploration has been through the music and words of one band, The Beatles, who despite their explorations have had as many challenges in romance as regular people. Easily the most prominent of those failed romancers, and the one who perhaps was most responsible for the sappy songs exploring the process, is Paul McCartney whose love life has been subject to great scrutiny in recent years. Incurring the death of his first wife and the ill-fated and tempestuous second marriage, McCartney has become an ironically tragic figure for the lovelorn. For him, a man who has made billions in singing about love, to have failed so thoroughly in that field gives both fear and hope for the millions in the world suffering through the same things. Now the singer has made another bold move, getting engaged in another romantic charity at the age of 68.
“Paul trusts Nancy implicitly. She is wealthy in her own right and certainly isn’t after him for his money,” an insider told the Daily Mail. “There is no pre-nuptial agreement but Nancy told me they are having a simple one-page legal document drawn up, which she is more than happy to sign. It states that, in the event of a divorce, she will not
make any claim on the trust funds of his children or grandchildren. Paul has known for a long while that Nancy is the one. They are blissfully happy”
McCartney announced his engagement to Nancy Shevell, a transportation heiress, last week.
“Generally speaking when someone has this incredible kind of wealth, something in the neighbourhood of a billion dollars, something as simple as a prenuptial agreement would seem like a basic thing. It’s nice that he believes in love, just as he has sung about for so many years, but when you are talking about these massive funds you really do need to be a little practical. After all, if she really loves him, there is nothing to be concerned about,” said Scrape TV Legal analyst Gabe Hawthorne. “You need to be practical in marriage just as you need to be practical in so many other things. It’s rarely a person’s intent to see a marriage go south but it happens. Love fades, it’s just the way it works sometimes and you need to be prepared just in case that happens again.” 
McCartney’s last marriage, to Heather Mills, saw her hop away with £24 million after their romance failed.
“A prenuptial doesn’t not interfere with love but could in many ways free the pair up so that that never becomes an issue, so that money never plays a role in their marriage. He has already learned the hard way what can happen when a marriage goes badly and he really should have learned from that case,” continued Hawthorne. “I mean the one advantage here is that he is getting on in years and it’s entirely possible that she would be more than willing to just wait things out. Of course if he lives a long time it might become something else and then we will see something like we saw with Mills. It might be different because Shevell has her own money and is thus capable of standing on her own two feet, but it’s a risk.”
In a related story, a recent poll shows no one is interested at all in Ringo Starr’s marital status.
