Ruth & Angie McCartney: Living with Paul McCartney

Ruth McCartney, a former Russian pop diva and businesswoman, is Paul McCartney’s stepsister. Though they shared a father, Jim McCartney, their relationship was not one of blood. The fact is their bond often remained distant, particularly after Jim died in 1976.

Between 1964 and 1976, when Jim married Angela, Paul certainly saw Ruth several times a year but had a demanding career with The Beatles and Wings.

After Jim passed, Ruth and Angela faced grave financial struggles. Angela auctioned off some of Paul’s childhood mementos, including his birth certificate and baby shoes. Ruth explained that while Jim was alive, Paul supported them financially, but once he died, the support stopped.

In 1994, Ruth and Angela gave a series of tell-all interviews with author and Emmy-nominated actor Geoffrey Giuliano, who sometimes painted Paul in a less-than-flattering light. Ruth recalled how, when she was 15, Paul harshly criticized her career ambitions, calling her a “spotty teenager.” However, as an adult, Ruth forgave Paul, understanding his harsh words as misguided “tough love.” The interviews also revealed tensions with Linda McCartney, who Ruth claimed invaded Angela’s privacy by reading her diary.

Here then are those explosive inside interviews, presented together for the first time, drawing back the curtain on the very private and personal life of Paul and The Beatles. Buckle up! This promises to be a wild ride!

Geoffrey Giuliano is the author of more books on the Beatles and the 1960s than any other author. He is also an actor best known for playing the menacing VIP4 in Squid Game, season 1, episode 7. Giuliano is a 55-year practicing bhakti yogi and vegan advocate who lives in Thailand with his Thai wife, Sai, and their son, Eden Garret.
