The other night I was watching a movie called “The Linda McCartney Story” when I had a thought- I wish that I could find a love like this.

To be a driving force behind someone is not easy, especially when you are forced into that role. When you are a single mother, as she was, doing her own thing as a photographer and then to be thrust into the limelight by replacing the other half of the Beatles (she replaced John, you could tell him and Paul were soul brothers) it must have been quite daunting. What I adore about this love was that they pushed each other to grow. No one took a back seat in this relationship.

Obviously, Beatle Paul was more famous, but when he was depressed about the break-up, she told him to suck it up. And when he wanted to return to the music world, he anointed her his keyboardist. The woman did not know how to play! Not a single note.  He taught her a few chords and the band “Wings” was formed. After Wings, he continued to give us music that was inspired by his new life (“My Love”, and “Maybe, I’m Amazed”), while she went on to become a frozen food veggie queen.  Together they managed their many charities.

They were billionaires and raised their kids in a two bedroom home on the country side (Britney Spears needed this shite)!  And when she fell ill with cancer he kept up a brave face for his beloved and the world.

I think that is why he never had a pre-nup with Heather Mills. I think that he felt that if the Universe sent him two prior soul mates, why not one more? And although this marriage ended badly, you have to give it to it Paul for always trying again.

So, relationship to covet would be Linda and Paul McCartney. I think theirs was a love we all should wait for.
