Taking to X (formerly Twitter), James penned a heartfelt note to his dad:
“Happiest of birthdays to you, Dad, born in Liverpool on this special day in 1942. Have a wonderful day. All my love, always. ❤️”

Tributes poured in not just applauding the timeless music Paul has gifted the world but also honoring the human side of the legend—the father whose love and kindness have been a guiding light to those closest to him.
In a time when genuine connections can feel rare, James’s simple but profound words resonate loudly: that behind every iconic song is a story of family, support, and love. The message carries a powerful reminder that greatness is often nurtured in the quiet moments, in the relationships that sustain us through life’s journey.
As Paul McCartney adds another year to his extraordinary life, the birthday wishes from his son James highlight the heart behind the legend—a bond that continues to inspire, uplift, and remind us all of the timeless power of family and music.
