Paul and Jane Asher Vs Paul And Linda Eastman/McCartney
Now this one really is clutching at straws. So Paul dated a string of ladies (by pretty much everyone’s admission) across the 60’s but, as the rap stars that are so popular now would phrase it, Jane Asher was his main bitch. She by all accounts could rustle up a pretty darn good Victoria sponge! But this was the 60’s man! And Macca was a big star. It was essentially a given that all of The Beatles were spreading their man porridge about like an out of control hosepipe. Such an out of control hosepipe it seems that George Harrison even wound up screwing Ringo’s wife.
The point is, eventually Jane was going to get sick of F Boy (that is the trendy term?) McCartney, or get chlamydia and dump his sorry ass. Which is exactly what happened when she caught him in the middle of doing the deed with his Apple Records secretary.
So Paul moved onto the next woman, who just so turned out to be the one…
Unless you believe The Winged Beatle that is. Paul’s sudden unengagement to Jane Asher and quick rebound onto Linda Eastman is seen as evidence that this new Paul wasn’t connected to Asher and was looking to bring his own bird in.
Now I can’t speak for every man ever. But surely if you’re in your mid-twenties and you’ve just taken on the role of Paul McCartney, your first thought isn’t going to be “How can I bring the missus into the public eye?”. It’s more likely to be “Bridget Bardott wants to take the Magical Mystery Tour (down my pants), Happy Days!”
