But as fans piled into the arena for the 82-year-old’s second gig tonight they were stunned to spot Sir Ringo Starr.
He was snapped arriving and sitting down in the VIP section in North Greenwich to watch his former bandmate perform.
Sir Ringo, 84, was dressed in black as he wore his trademark black shades while smiling at stunned concert-goers.
Let It Be singer Paul‘s proud son James McCartney, 47, was also spotted in attendance.
During the show viewers were treated to Sir Paul and Ronnie Wood performing Get Back together.
Hollywood’s biggest stars also descended to hear Sir Paul perform his biggest hits from his own successful solo career and The Beatles’ catalogue.
Taking to social media, fans shared snaps with George Clooney, Judi Dench, Martin Freeman and Professor Brian Cox.
“I’ve a feeling we are going to have fun tonight,” cheered Sir Paul McCartney as he greeted the capacity crowds at Manchester‘s Co-op Live Arena.
“Alright Manchester,” he chipped, “it’s good to be back.”
It was a show filled with fireworks – literally, snow – albeit the paper kind, and a tear-jerking performance of I’ve Got A Feeling with an AI version of his late The Beatles bandmate, John Lennon.
The icon, in one of a handful touching moments on-stage, fought back tears as he hailed it “great, because I get to sing with John again.”

FORMER Love Island star Molly-Mae Hague has hit back at cruel comments from trolls in her latest vlog.

Molly Mae/InstagramMolly-Mae often shares glamorous snaps online but confessed in her latest vlog that she isn’t feeling her best at the moment[/caption]
The exes, who split in August, reunited this week to take their daughter Bambi, 23 months, to a soft play venue.
Photographed on their family outing, Molly-Mae was seen walking in front of Tommy who was holding Bambi in his arms.
Molly-Mae explained how she woke up and scrolled on TikTok before coming across some quite unsavoury comments that she didn’t appreciate in regards to the snap.
She told viewers how she and ex Tommy took their daughter Bambi to a soft play together “which was actually a really lovely thing to do”
“And I was looking at the comments because naturally you go to the comments section,” she said, “And what killed me was that people are more concerned about how ‘large’ I looked.”
She then revealed that the top ‘liked’ comment was about her weight, adding: “And I was like ‘oh, okay’, and normally, things don’t really bother me, I don’t know why it bothered me.”
“But, I read it and I was like ‘um’, I think because I was already feeling a bit sensitive this week as to my appearance and I was just feeling a little bit…”
The former Love Islander then said that people on TikTok always come up with some really “innovative things to say”.
“I’m like, do you know what? Creative, I like it,” she said of the harsh comments.
‘FEELING SENSITIVE’
“But, I read it and I was like ‘um’, I think because I was already feeling a bit sensitive this week as to my appearance and I was just feeling a little bit thingy about it.
“Even today I was just like ‘ugh I just don’t feel my nicest’ and then when I saw that.
“I’m really glad that took priority over co-parenting news, and us being seen out together but also, it is a little bit confidence-knocking.”
Molly-Mae then said that if she hadn’t already been feeling sensitive about the way she looked, she “wouldn’t have cared” about the comments.
She then expressed her sensitive feelings about her appearance because “it’s December” and “it’s bulking season”.
Timeline of Molly-Mae and Tommy Fury's split
After five years together, Molly-Mae and Tommy Fury split up in August 2024.
At around 4pm on Wednesday, August 14, Molly-Mae and Tommy suffer an explosive showdown and Molly-Mae announces her split from fiancé Tommy Fury, saying ‘ I never imagined our story would end, especially not this way’.
An hour later Tommy shares a separate and brief statement confirming they have parted ways, and thanks Molly-Mae for making him ‘a dad’.
The real reason they split emerges and on Thursday, August 15 The Sun reveals how Molly-Mae learned Tommy had cheated on her – leading to an explosive showdown.
On Saturday, August 17, The Sun reveals how Molly-Mae had been sent an upsetting video showing Tommy kissing a girl in a nightclub in North Macedonia on a lads holiday.
Exactly one week after the split a Danish woman accused of getting close to Tommy speaks to The Sun. On Wednesday, August 21, she denies she is the girl who kissed Tommy.
NOT FOCUSING ON NEGATIVITY
She then expressed how she didn’t want to focus on negativity and never usually does, adding: “If I do let it get to me, I keep that to myself, but when I woke up.
“And I think I was already a little bit delirious from my power nap, and probably because I had a sausage sandwich for breakfast.
“I was like ‘um’, not that there’s anything wrong with a sausage sandwich for breakfast but I just felt a little bit like, I don’t know, anyway, moving on.”
Molly-Mae then continued her vlog, with the blonde beauty looking bare-faced and makeup-free for the first part of it.
SPLIT FROM TOMMY
Molly shares her daughter Bambi, who turns two next month, with her ex fiancé Tommy, 25.
The couple, who met on the 2019 series of Love Island, confirmed their shock split in August this year.
Molly and Tommy’s split was plagued by rumours of infidelity on Tommy’s part, but they are allegations he has always strongly denied.

5 days agoUSA UpdateComments Off on Trans teenager’s mum WINS right to appeal against their access to hormone treatment from online clinic
THE mother of a transgender teenager has won the right to appeal against their access to hormone treatment off an online gender clinic.
The 16-year-old, called Q in the court documents, and referred to as “he”, was born a girl but told his parents in 2020 of a wish to identify as a boy.
After an acrimonious divorce, he went to live with his dad who was supportive of his desire to access treatment through a controversial clinic.
A previous judge made the father promise to the court he would not fund or facilitate hormone treatment at the Singapore-based Gender GP while the child is still a minor.
The clinic had been slammed after Dr Hilary Cass’s landmark report into transgender healthcare published earlier this year.
The parents then agreed to allow Q to undergo a six-month assessment by UK-based online Gender Plus clinic instead.
However, the court would still have had the final say on whether Q could receive treatment even if the clinic recommended the child have it.
The dad then won a ruling to dismiss the case altogether, removing any intervention from the court.
But the mum went to the High Court to seek right of appeal.
Yesterday, its judgment revealed that Sir Geoffrey Vos, Master of the Rolls, ruled the mother can appeal the decision to dismiss the case.
Sir Geoffrey said there is “sufficient current doubt as to what is proper and appropriate in this area”.
The judgment highlights an NHS England letter sent to health service gender dysphoria clinics in April, asking them to defer offering first appointments to those under 18.
Sir Geoffrey said: “The judge was wrong to refuse to adjourn the mother’s application in the unusual circumstances of this case.
“The judge did not place enough weight on the rapidly changing regulatory environment.”
The case was adjourned until the completion of Child Q’s assessment by Gender Plus, which will then be considered by the court.
Dr Hilary Cass was behind a landmark report into transgender healthcare published earlier this yearPA
5 days agoUSA UpdateComments Off on Carabao Cup semi-final draw confirmed as Tottenham land horror draw and Arsenal given trophy hopes
THE Carabao Cup semi-final draw has been made with Tottenham Hotspur dealt a tricky tie against Liverpool.
Spurs will have to topple the league leaders, while north London neighbours Arsenal will face Newcastle in the other tie.

Arsenal will feel they have been given the kindest draw possible, while Spurs face a tough test against Liverpool.
The tie also means that there’s a possibility of a North London derby final should both Arsenal and Spurs win their ties.
Spurs will certainly have their work cut out for them against a high-flying Liverpool side.
Arne Slot‘s team, the current Carabao Cup holders, booked their place in the last four with a tricky victory at Southampton last night.
Despite Darwin Nunez and Harvey Elliott‘s first-half goals, the Reds made it hard work for themselves in the second period, with manager-less Saints unlucky not to draw level after Cameron Archer pulled one back.
Arsenal dumped Crystal Palace out on Wednesday night, with a sublime Gabriel Jesus hat-trick completing an impressive turnaround in a 3-2 win.
Jean-Philippe Mateta had netted an early opener, but the Brazilian’s treble ultimately proved decisive, even if a late Eddie Nketiah consolation did make for a nervy ending.
Newcastle, meanwhile, edged one step closer to their first domestic trophy in nearly 70 YEARS by dumping Brentford out.
Sandro Tonali ran the show at St James’ Park with a first-half double, but the Toon Army’s celebrations were slightly overshadowed by concerns for Joelinton.
The Brazilian midfielder needed hospital treatment after being on the wrong end of a nasty challenge.
Bees star Nathan Collins struck Joelinton with an elbow, and caught the Newcastle man’s head with his studs as he fell back to the ground.
Tottenham completed the semi-final line-up by comfortably dispatching of Man Utd in arguably the game of the round at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
A Dominic Solanke brace either side of a Dejan Kulusevski goal set the wheels in motion, before those same wheels dramatically fell off.
Fraser Forster committed two goalkeeping howlers to gift Ruben Amorim‘s side a lifeline, before fellow understudy Altay Bayindir let Son Heung-min score directly from a corner.
Jonny Evans’ late goal was not enough as Man Utd were sent home empty-handed.
The Carabao Cup semi-final first legs will take place in the week commencing January 6th 2025, with the second legs to follow in the week beginning February 3rd.
The final will take place at Wembley Stadium on Sunday March 16th.
