Former Beatle Sir Paul McCartney and his fiancée, New York businesswoman Nancy Shevell, have posted a banns -- a notice of their intent to get married -- in London.
McCartney and Shevell, who've been engaged since April, filed the notice in person at the Old Marylebone Town Hall, the same venue where Macca married Linda Eastman in 1969.
Paul and Linda's daughter, photographer Mary, also wed her second husband, writer and director Simon Aboud, at the Old Marylebone last year.

The small location has four rooms and can seat no more than 100 guests, adding to the speculation that McCartney, 69, and Shevell, 51, want an intimate wedding.
The wedding will be McCartney's third, after marriages to Eastman and a 2002 marriage to Heather Mills that ended in a bitter 2008 divorce. The wedding to McCartney will be Shevell's second.
As for the official wedding date, McCartney, a 16-time Grammy winner who was just named the 2012 Person of the Year by MusiCares, and Shevell have to stick out a mandatory 16-day waiting period, so they're eligible to wed anytime on or after Sept. 30.
Is that his sister?
Who is Paul McCartney?
To the rodent’s posterior, who doth careth about thee?
Getting their license at “Old Marylebone?”
Isn’t that her pet name for him?
Why doesn’t he just find a woman he can hate every few years and buy her a house?? LOL
LOL!
The bride has U.S. citizenship. Coincidence? My take is that Macca is aiming for a Green Card (and what comes after that, like SoSecurity, Medicare, unemployment benefits for 99 weeks and so forth.)
There once was a lawyer they called Mr. Clay.
He had but two clients and they would not pay.
At last of starvation he grew so afraid,
That he courted and married a wealthy old maid.
At the wedding the lawyer made one big mistake,
'Twas not in omitting the wine or the cake,
The ring was well chosen, they had a big feed,
But the lawyer did not get a warranty deed.
[Chorus]
He's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate,
very unfortunate man.
Yes, he's a very unfortunate, very unfortunate,
very unfortunate man.
At night in their chamber the lady arose,
And began to prepare to retire and repose,
Her husband stood near her admiring her charms,
That gave him such pleasure to hold in his arms.
She went to the washstand to bathe her fair face,
And thus she destroyed all her beauty and grace,
The rose on her cheek quickly grew very faint,
And he saw on the towel, 'twas nothing but paint.
[Chorus]
She went to the mirror to take down her hair,
And when she had done so her scalp was all bare,
Said she: "Don't be frightened to see my bald head,
"I'll put on my cap when I get into bed."
She hung her false hair on the wall on a peg,
Then she proceeded to take off her leg,
Her trembling husband got quite a surprise,
When she asked him to come and take out her glass eye.
[Chorus]
Her husband was biting his quivering lips,
While she removed both her counterfeit hips,
Just then her false nose clattered down to the floor,
And the lawyer ran screaming right out of the door.
Now all you young men who would marry for life,
Be sure to examine your intended wife,
Remember the lawyer who trusted his eyes,
And a little bit later got quite a surprise.
This one already has her own money...
No, she looks like Yoko!
Um...she’s got a Yoko-Lookin’-Thang about her. Please, Gawd, NO!
Paul? Give. It. Up. You will NEVER replace ‘My Love.’ Just continue to love Linda from afar and get ON with it! None of us will judge you or think any less of you. In fact, I’d have respected you MORE if you’d remained solo for all of these years and avoided all of this STUPIDITY.
Funny. You’ve not written Love Song ONE about your subsequent wives! Oh, to be loved by a man in that way! *SIGH*
(Yep. Some of us notice this stuff. Sad, but true.)
Nailed it!!! That was my first thought also. She looks just like John Lennon.
No, she looks like Yoko!
She looks like Julian Lennon
Hey! You’ve never written ME a love song, and I’m your first wife. You need to fix that.
What an idiot... take all his money baby!
