Paul McCartney reveals he cried for a year after wife Lindas death: It seemed the only thing to do

McCartney, 77, also tragically lost his mother, Mary McCartney to breast cancer in 1956 – she was 47-years-old and he was just 14 at the time of her death. He would lament the death of his mother in his conversation with the British news outlet.

“Both my mum and Linda died of breast cancer. We had no idea what my mum had died of because no-one talked about it. She just died,” McCartney said of losing his mother. “The worse thing about that was everyone was very stoic, everyone kept a stiff upper lip and then one evening you’d hear my dad crying in the next room. It was tragic because we’d never heard him cry.”

Though Eastman was an American musician, she also worked as a professional photographer to celebrities and other musicians. Her photography works will be displayed at the Linda McCartney Retrospective at Kelgrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow, according to People – citing the BBC. The exhibit opens July 5, 2019 and runs until January 2020.
