Sir Paul McCartney is planning to embark on his last major world tour this autumn, according to a report.

The former Beatle is rumoured to be lining up 100 concerts across the globe over two years. The first dates are expected to be announced in coming weeks.

"Paul explained that this tour will be the last big one," a source told the Sunday Mirror. "He wants to settle down and enjoy (daughter) Beatrice's childhood.

"The tour will be the last time he performs in many parts of the world. Beatrice and his family life are going to come first. He does not want to be away for months at a time."
