Which photographer did musician Paul McCartney marry in 1969?

Musician Paul McCartney married photographer Linda Eastman in 1969.

McCartney and Eastman married on March 12, 1969, at Marylebone Town Hall in London. Linda Eastman was an American photographer who had become well known for portraits of musicians, including members of the Beatles. Their marriage took place while the Beatles were still together, though the group broke up the following year.

Linda became a musician as well as a photographer. She joined Paul’s post-Beatles band Wings and performed keyboards and vocals. The couple also became prominent advocates for vegetarianism and animal rights, later launching the Linda McCartney Foods brand.

They had three children together, and Paul adopted Linda’s daughter Heather from her earlier marriage. Linda died of breast cancer in 1998. Paul later married Heather Mills and Nancy Shevell, but Linda remained his first wife and a major creative partner.
