EXC: Sir Paul McCartney, 80, cosies up to wife Nancy, 63, in the sea during their St Barts getaway

Sir Paul McCartney and his wife Nancy cosied up in the sea during their sun-soaked St Barts getaway on Sunday.

Wearing a black wetsuit top and boardshorts featuring the image of a tropical beach, the Beatles singer, 80, topped up his tan alongside his stunning partner, 63, who opted for a similar getup.

The pair had been staying at the five-star Eden Rock Hotel, which is owned by Spencer Matthews‘ family and has hosted a range of A-listers from Tom Hanks to Jessica Alba and Jennifer Lopez.

Businesswoman Nancy accessorised her look with a turquoise beaded necklace and had tied her light brown tresses into a messy bun before taking a dip in the Caribbean Sea with her other half.

Surrounded by a flurry of holidaymakers on the busy beach, the pair seemed to go unnoticed as they had fun in the ocean before drying off with orange towels.

Paul is not just arguably the most successful songwriter of popular music of all-time, he’s also a self-confessed romantic.

The legendary musician, who penned Yesterday while with The Beatles, which is one of the most played songs in music history, recently revealed what he considers his role to be as husband to his wife Nancy on his website.

In the post, the Liverpool-native explained how he’s always ‘just trying to be good to my wife Nancy and trying to be considerate and romantic.’

The And I Love Her singer went on to share how he goes all out to shower his lady with love and affection when it comes to holidays like Valentine’s Day.

‘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 said of his experience with the special day for lovers.

It’s a similar story when it comes to the Christmas holiday at the McCartney home: ‘At Christmas, I go crazy with the tree lights and fairy lights — totally overdo it.’

The multi-instrumentalist, who known as one of the great and innovative bass players, also shared how he likes to be the guy that Nancy can rely on to offer ‘some strength when she’s going through tough times.’

He added, ‘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. I don’t think I consciously chose to be that way. It’s just how I do things.’

Paul and Nancy celebrated their 11th wedding anniversary this past October. Since their nuptials the Silly Love Songs star has been open and honest about their romance by sharing some of sweet sentiments on social media.

‘Swing and sway on Valentine’s Day – Paul ❤️,’ he captioned a photo of his wife flashing a big and infectious smile.

And in October 2021, McCartney gushed over his wife on their wedding anniversary with an adorable photo of Nancy leaning her head on his shoulder, writing, ’10 beautiful years together. Happy Anniversary to my lovely wife – Paul.’

This is the Let It Be star’s third marriage, following the death of first wife Linda Eastman in 1998 after more than 30 years of marriage and his divorce to second wife Heather Mills in 2008.
