EXCLUSIVE: Mary McCartney’s intimate memories of Beatles dad’s Abbey Road and ‘rule-breaker’ mum Linda
Mary McCartney might be the daughter of music legend Sir Paul McCartney and the late culinary entrepreneur Linda McCartney, but she’s also a hugely successful businesswoman in her own right.
“I was wondering if it was almost a bit too close to home,” Mary tells us as we sit down to chat to her about the film. “But I’m a huge documentary watcher. I love them and I think the ones that are successful are the ones where it’s something close to the director’s heart. So this definitely fits the bill.”
She tells us it was a reminder of how pioneering her mum Linda was as an animal rights activist and the creator of a vegetarian food company with Paul before her death to breast cancer in 1998, aged 56. “I was really nervous showing the film to my dad,” Mary admits. “I took him to a cinema to watch it and kept thinking, ‘Oh my goodness, I hope he likes it.’
