New Zealand Woman’s Weekly 1803

The former Beatle (75) took to the shores of the idyllic Caribbean island alongside his wife of six years, Nancy Shevell (58), daughter Stella McCartney (46) and his grandchildren, in what has become an annual family tradition.

It was the scandal that shook the sporting world – a young, glamorous figure skater at her peak involved in a macabre plot to attack another. Until last week, disgraced athlete Tonya Harding has always maintained she knew nothing of a plan to injure her teammate Nancy Kerrigan ahead of the 1994 Winter Olympics in order to ensure her own place on the US squad. But in a revealing TV interview, Tonya – who is the subject of the upcoming film I, Tonya, starring Australian actress Margot Robbie – finally admits she “knew something was up”, and that it was possible her ex-husband Jeff Gillooly and two of his friends would attempt to break Nancy’s leg so she was unable to compete in Olympic try-outs. “I did... overhear them talking…
