The Incredibly Romantic Love Story Of Paul and Linda
The Beatles lived through some hectic years as a band, and after years without peace and quiet, years of stress, controversy, and fatigue, touring the world, in 1966, the band decided to quit touring altogether. They decided instead to focus only on creating music and having some time for themselves. By the next year, John, George, and Ringo were involved in extremely toxic relationships. Paul, however, remained the only eligible bachelor. That is until he met the woman who would become the love of his life, Linda Eastman.
ここにはジェーンアッシャーのことは触れられておりません
決して品行方正な方ではなかったと思いますがまぁ婚姻前だし、いいか。
本人も婚姻前は遊んでいいと考えてたようだし（笑）実際 結婚後は理想的なfamilymanになった訳だしね！
Eastman was an American photographer who was making it through her photos of rock bands. Not only was she talented, but she was also one of the first female photographers to capture some of the most important and iconic musicians at the time, including The Rolling Stones, Aretha Franklin, Jimi Hendrix, and Bob Dylan. Paul and Linda met at a club in 1967 and, as Paul always claimed, he was immediately drawn to her. Linda, who was already a Beatles fan, had a little crush on Lennon, but she lost interest in him when she felt a connection with the “cute” Beatle. They started dating almost right away and, just two years later, they tied the knot in London.

As both claimed throughout the years, what brought them together was their love of nature, music, and their will to have fun and enjoy life to the fullest. Linda had been married before to Melville See Jr., a geologist she had met in college, and even had a daughter with him, Heather. Their marriage lasted only three years, and though Linda was reluctant to get married again, it was Paul’s genuine love for her daughter that convinced her he was the one.
自然への愛、音楽への思い、人生を目一杯楽しむという意思が二人を長きに渡って共に歩ませたのです。
リンダは再婚でした。前の結婚は地質学者で3年という短い婚姻期間の間にヘザーという娘を授かってます。
一度失敗してるのでリンダは再婚には躊躇してました。
でもヘザーを自分の養子に迎えると言ってくれた愛の大きさに、運命を確信したのです。
When The Beatles split in 1970 (after Paul sued the band), the couple decided to embark on a new project together. Paul taught Linda how to play the keyboard and, together, they released RAM, Paul’s first solo album. Soon, they founded the now-famous rock band Wings, with which they toured and recorded several albums that garnered a lot of praise. They were the perfect team in every way, in business and their relationship.
1970年にグループが解散後、二人で新しいことを始めようと決めました。彼女はキーボートを教わりました。
そして共作でram、彼の最初のソロアルバムを出しました。
やがてのちに有名になるwingsというロックバンドを作ります。
彼らはツアーをしレコードを何枚か出し、称賛を得ました。
彼らは仕事に於いても、あらゆる点でperfectな関係でした。
Paul had finally found his muse, while Linda had found a partner who pushed her to go beyond the limits of her imagination. Their 29-year relationship was Paul’s most creative period in musical terms, but also, as he always says, the happiest time of his life. Sadly, Linda was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1995 and passed away three years later due to complications, leaving in Paul and their kids a big void to fill.
彼はmuseを見つけ、彼女は想像以上の世界に彼女を連れ出してくれるpartnerを見つけたのです
二人の２９年間は、音楽面で彼にとっては最高にcreativeなものとなり 私生活においても最高に幸せな時代でした。
悲しいことにlindaは1995年に乳がんになり３年間の闘病を経てなくなりました
残された家族はポッカリと開いた大きな穴に落ちてしまいました
Paul remarried four years later with Heather Mills, but this relationship ended after only six years and made tabloid headlines due to the significant amount of money Mills took with her. Then, in 2011, Paul met his current wife, Nancy Shevell, with whom he’s been ever since (she has also inspired him to write some amazing love songs). Still, though he’s clearly happy again, there’s no doubt Linda still holds an important place in his heart, not only as the mother of his children, but also as the woman who showed him what true love really is.
残された夫は4年後にヘザーミルズと結婚しますが6年しか持たず、膨大な慰謝料をふんだくられたと報道されました。
2011年に今の奥さんと再再婚します。彼女のために彼はいくつかの素晴らしいラブソングを書き上げました。
そう、彼はまた幸せを取り戻しました。
しかし、そこにはlindaの存在が大きく寄与しています。彼の心にはlindaは存在し続けてます、
残された子供達の母親だというのみならず、彼に真実の愛を教えてくれた女性として。
感想・・・
滅茶美化してる（笑）こんなとんとん拍子じゃなくて、世間のバッシング受けまくったwings時代、
物語としては、そこを端折らない方が、劇的で波乱万丈でドラマチックだと思いますぜ。
世界中を敵に回しても、ってセリフがぴったりな感じだったんですよ。
ドラマチックでしょう！
