Beatrice Milly McCartney is 20 and she’s the spitting image of her famous dad
|Paul McCartney has five children – and his role as a parent has evolved over the years.
Right now, let’s focus on Beatrice Milly McCartney, his youngest daughter.
Lately, she has garnered quite a bit of attention, as many believe she bears an uncanny resemblance to her famous father. Scroll down to judge for yourself…
Comparing celebrities and their children with each other is quite inevitable. I mean, we constantly compare our own children to ourselves – or maybe they’re an exact copy of their uncle or grandparents. It’s quite human to try to find signs that connect us, it helps us feel a sense of belonging.
Looking at 20-year-old Beatrice Milly McCartney, there’s hardly any doubt about who her father is…
Paul McCartney, one of the co-founders of The Beatles, has an indisputable place in music history, and since he is arguably one of the most famous Britons of all time, his private life has also become widely known to the public.
He married his first wife, Linda McCartney, in 1969, and together they had four children – Heather, Mary, Stella, and James McCartney.
Sadly, Linda passed away in 1998. She died from breast cancer, at the age of 56.
Two years after Linda’s tragic passing, rumors began to surface that the legendary musician had found love again.
Tabloids quickly picked up on McCartney’s appearances at events with former model Heather Mills. The young woman had a lot of psychological and physical scars when she met Paul. When Heather was 25, her life changed dramatically when she was hit by a speeding police motorcycle as she stepped off a curb.
The accident resulted in the loss of the lower half of her left leg.
After that, she continued to work with disabled people and became a campaigner against landmines. Heather met Paul McCartney at a charitable awards ceremony in London’s Dorchester in May 1999. Intrigued by her presentation, McCartney quickly reached out to her.
”I thought he was very cute but it didn’t enter my head that he fancied me,” she said later.
When she celebrated her 32rd birthday, Paul McCartney appeared by her side, making their relationship official.
Paul and Heather tied the knot in 2002, and a year later, their daughter, Beatrice Milly McCartney, was born. The little baby was reportedly named after Mills’ mother, Beatrice, and McCartney’s Aunt Milly.
Four miscarriages
”She is a little beauty and we couldn’t be prouder,” the couple said in a statement at the time.
The couple saw Beatrice as their little miracle. Heather later revealed that they never expected to have children. In an interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2016, Heather disclosed that she thought she ”could never have children after having two ectopic pregnancies and four miscarriages.”
Unfortunately, the family happiness didn’t last long. Soon after Beatrice’s birth, the relationship began to falter. Heather faced harsh scrutiny in the British tabloids, which at the time was relentless in its pursuit of sales.
Paul, on the other hand, had to defend himself against malicious rumors that Heather was just a golddigger who married him for money. In May 2006, the pair announced their separation.
Beatrice was only three years old when Paul and Heather parted ways.
The divorce process was bitter, but eventually, the parties reached a settlement. According to the agreement, McCartney would cover the nanny school fees for Beatrice, as well as provide her with $45,000 annually until she turned 17 or completed her secondary education.
