Why No Pre-Nup for Paul McCartney and Wife No. 3?

By Rob Shuter Posted May 10th 2011 09:10AM

All you need is love. And two rich people who don't need each other's money. Paul McCartney and his girlfriend of over four years, Nancy Shevell, are engaged to be married and once again Paul is considering not having a pre-nuptial agreement.

"His friends and business advisers think he's crazy after what happened with his ex, but Paul is insisting Nancy is no Heather," a family insider tells me. "There's no need to make marriage a business arrangement."

According to the Daily Mail, Paul's legal team has drawn up a single-page agreement that says if the marriage doesn't work out, then she won't go after the trust funds for his kids. That's it.

Nancy is already a very successful businesswoman in New York and her dad, Mike Shevell, is a trucking magnate who has amassed a humongous fortune. Needless to say, she doesn't need Paul to make her wealthy. Plus the two have been taking things slowly and not rushing into saying 'I Do.'

The Beatles legend and Nancy started dating when they met in the posh Hamptons during the summer of 2007, and have been inseparable -- although very private -- ever since.

"They are the perfect couple. And have both had a huge impact on each other," my source tells me. "She has once again shown him that falling in love doesn't have to hurt."

Paul's marriage to Linda McCartney ended tragically after she lost a battle with cancer and his second marriage to Heather Mills ended in a very ugly and costly divorce.

"This one will last forever," an insider tells me. "She is the opposite of Heather and hates the public spotlight, plus she doesn't need his money to live a great life."

No marriage shouldn't be a business arrangement, but when your rich you should each protect your business.

IDIOT!

We've known her for many years, from Edison, NJ, and we love her. Shame on the nay-sayers. They should be happy for two lovely people. Many of us will go through life never finding that special someone. Best of everything, Nancy and Paul!

Someone's a bit jealous???

By uawildcat

Paul, you're a crazy b*stard...but good on ya!

By MinuteMaid

Guess he's suffering from Alzheimer's and is losing his mind...he'll get what he deserves...just another golddigger

Perhaps you failed to read that Nancy has plenty of her own money. Someone sounds jealous.

He's not too bright and appears to have learned nothing. What about when he's 75 and she's still in her 50's? Who knows - the dynamic of the marriage may change and she might want to move on. She's rich too though but he's probably richer so he still could end up badly in a divorce.

He's not my cup of tea.......
