Top 10 Most Beautiful Linda Photos

Those 1970s pics in magazines of Linda sporting her unflattering “mullet shag” caused her to be unjustly labeled as too plain to befit a Beatle wife.

Now that we have a treasure trove of Linda photos thanks to the internet, we can see beyond that one phase of her looks. Linda had a natural unpretentious beauty. The pics prove it.

Feb. 10, 1983. With Michael Jackson at the BPI Awards (British Phonographic Industry Awards), London. (Another source says the date was Feb. 8, 1983.)

P.S. I kept finding more good pictures, so check this post for the extended list (#11 to #20) of top Linda pics.

P.P.S. And let’s not forget Linda glammed up: “Junior’s Farm” photo shoot 1974

The previous photos pretty much showed the natural Linda. However, being a member of a band, she was also a participant in professional photo shoots complete with makeup, hair, and wardrobe.

In this one, far from looking awkward in makeup and an evening gown, Linda nails the role as if to the manner born. She looks STUNNING. How is Paul not staring at her throughout the photo shoot? (Who knows? Maybe he was and the photographer had to do a lot of retakes.) 😊��

Arrowsmith said (of all the images he shot of Paul & Linda in costume with band mates, not just this set): “They really capture the seminal moments of the shoot… The fun we were all having, plus Paul and Linda’s closeness, it’s the naturalness of the pictures that is the key to their success.”

The Leading Man

I love how after watching Nightmare Time, TGWDLM implies that all the powerhouses of Hatchetfield were infected before the CCRP crew (also that Pokey plays favorites)

Put Your Head on My Shoulder

1969

1970 Scotland

Late 1970 or early 1971 Working on the album Ram. Rest your chin on my shoulder. 🧡

March 1971 Malibu, California. A tender pose during photo shoot for April 16, 1971, issue of Life Magazine. Photo by Henry Diltz. 💕

Feb. 12, 1975 New Orleans.

1975. See the unedited pic (which shows a fan standing on Paul’s right) on linda mccartney daily page on Twitter.

May 26, 1976 en route to New York’s LaGuardia Airport. Photo by Harry Benson. Benson says of this photo: “That’s a nice picture, and it’s rather touching,” Benson says. “And that’s what you’re looking for — the warmth. They really like one another.”

1984 Linda resting her head on Paul’s shoulder (well, close enough to the shoulder). Photo by Terry O’Neill.

The Looks(s) of Love

Jan. 1969, as seen in the documentary Get Back (2021)

1970 London

Mar. 16, 1971 Backstage at the Grammy Awards. Paul, John, and George won the award for best original score written for a motion picture or TV special (for the film Let It Be). Paul accepted on behalf of all of them. A loving aura surrounds this moment, as Paul and Linda must feel especially blessed being expectant parents (Linda is pregnant with Stella here).

1971 during photo shoot for Wings’ Wild Life album.

1973 Lagos, Nigeria. Still from a video made during recording of Band on The Run. The way he’s looking at her … 🥰

1973 Gazing into each other’s eyes 😍

I’m Happy Just to Dance with You

July 12, 1972 Juan-les-Pins, France. Dancing on the top deck of the Wings over Europe tour bus.

Oct. 2, 1974 London premiere of the movie That’s Entertainment. Here’s a picture that truly conveys how much they enjoy being together.

Playing with Hair

Jan. 1969 From the documentary Get Back. Paul gently strokes Linda’s golden tresses. I bet anyone who saw them interacting like this could tell that they were serious about each other.

1970 Paul still running his hands through Linda’s blonde locks.

Always Gotta Be Touching

1972 on the top deck of the Wings over Europe tour bus. Always touching, here’s the couple with Paul’s hand on Linda’s knee. Maybe that’s for practical reasons to keep Linda’s dress from from flying up in the wind; 😎 but that doesn’t mean it can’t be an affectionate gesture as well.

Also, it may look like Paul’s arm is halfway inside the bodice of Linda’s dress. 🥺 Zoom in and you will see that is not the case and that his arm is actually resting behind her. Besides, as demonstrative as they are, I doubt the couple would pose for a photo of Paul feeling up Linda, lol. 🤣 😆🤭

May 24, 1976 Madison Square Garden, New York. Prior to their concert, the band members meet with 300 members of the Daily Mirror Pop Club. A triplet of gestures of affection are on display here: head leaning on shoulder, hands around arm, and hand on leg. Lovely! 😊 🥰 ☺️

1976 Wings concert. Heh heh, Paul — you probably thought the camera wouldn’t catch that. 😍 🤭

1980 at their home in East Sussex, England. I don’t know if this was an interrupted hug or if they were in the middle of dancing, but it looks romantic enough to go on this blog. 🥰

1985 Ear nibble (okay, ear bite — but done with love I’m sure 😘). Photo by Terry O’Neill.

1990 Paul must have delicious ears. 😊 Photo by Bill Bernstein.

Cheek to Cheek

1974. We’re watching you watching us.

1974 Photoshoot for the Apr. 7, 1974, issue of New York News magazine. The cover story was "Just an Old Fashioned Beatle: An Exclusive Visit with Linda and Paul McCartney."

1990s. Can’t resist that baby face. 👶 😘

Date unknown, guessing 1990s from the hairstyles. Linda looking particularly radiant.
