McCartney denies wedding rumours

Paul McCartney has denied rumours he is set to wed American heiress Nancy Shevell.

The couple sparked reports they were set to walk down the aisle in April after McCartney was spotted shopping at top London jewellers S.J. Phillips.

They were subsequently reported to have sought the blessing of their families after their return from a road trip across the US earlier this month.

But a representative for McCartney has denied the star is to wed, saying: "It is nonsense to say they are getting married."

McCartney ended his marriage to former glamour model Heather Mills earlier this year, while Shevell is still battling to finalise her divorce from US lawyer Bruce Blakeman.
