The
banns allow McCartney to marry New York businesswoman Nancy Shevell any time 16
days after the Sept. 14 posting at the Register offices. It will be McCartney's
third marriage. Shevell, 51, who is divorced, and McCartney, 69, are believed
to have begun dating after the Fab Four singer's bitter split with second wife,
former model Heather Mills.
The banns list the couple as "James Paul
McCartney" and "Nancy Shevell" and say he has had a previous
marriage dissolved. He gives his profession as "business executive"
and his multi-millionaire future wife is listed as an "executive."
McCartney was happily married for 29 years to American photographer Linda
Eastman until her death of breast cancer in 1998. He said at the time that he
and Linda had spent just 11 nights apart during their marriage.
