Music legend Paul McCartney celebrated Father’s Day by sharing a heartwarming photo of himself with his daughter Mary as a baby. The Instagram post, featuring a photo taken by his first wife Linda, shows a young McCartney cradling Mary in his jacket. He captioned the photo with a simple yet sweet message: “All you wonderful fathers out there, have a great Father’s Day today! – Paul.”
Fans were quick to respond, praising the touching father-daughter moment. Many called it their “favorite picture” of the pair, with one fan describing it as “a symbol of great parenthood.”
McCartney, who recently turned 83, has five children. He adopted Heather, his late wife Linda’s daughter from a previous relationship, and the couple then had three children together: Mary, Stella, and James. He later had a daughter, Beatrice, with his second wife, Heather Mills.
In his book, The Lyrics: 1956 to the Present, McCartney revealed that he enjoyed writing songs for his children when they were younger, creating a collection of unreleased family “classics.”
