McCartney, Shevell seen 'kissing on beach'

Sir Paul McCartney has reportedly been spotted kissing US socialite Nancy Shevell, quashing rumours that they are just friends.

The pair have been enjoying a getaway at the exclusive Caribbean island resort of Jumby Bay.

They have denied speculation that they are romantically involved, but reports now claim they were seen openly "caressing" and holding hands while soaking up the sun on a beach.

A source said: "They were kissing each other passionately, giggling and smooching just like any other couple in the throes of a new relationship. They only had eyes for each other. They seemed so happy and relaxed. Nancy seemed to be hanging on his every word."

The couple are staying in a £6,000-a-night villa and have been seen riding bikes and walking by the sea.

They were first linked last November after spending time together in The Hamptons, New York.

Heather Mills is said to have "erupted with rage" when she learned that McCartney had jetted off for a holiday with the heiress.
