Former Beatles musician Paul McCartney has praised businesswoman wife Nancy Shevell for keeping him "grounded".

McCarthney, who wed Shevell in 2011, said she is a positive influence on him because she is down to earth and stays out of the limelight, reported Female First.

"Nancy is great at keeping me grounded because she is very level-headed. When we met I wondered how she would react to it all. She got some great offers to do stuff in magazines for just being who she was - Mrs McCartney - and stuff that a lot of girls would be like, 'Woah, I've gotta do that!'
 

"But she said no. She is the head of a trucking company and she basically said, 'No, I've already got a job'. And when we went to events where there were a lot of paparazzi, she would just hold back a bit and shove me forward. She has got a low profile and wants to be able to walk around unnoticed. She is sensible, and it's refreshing. She is very grounding," McCartney said.
