Former Beatle Sir Paul McCartney has married American heiress Nancy Shevell at a ceremony in London.
The couple posed for pictures outside Old Marylebone Town Hall register office after being showered with confetti by wedding guests.
Ms Shevell, 51, from New York, is an heiress to a haulage fortune.
She is Sir Paul's third wife after Linda McCartney died in 1998 and he split from second wife Heather Mills in an acrimonious divorce in 2008.
Ms Shevell wore a white, long-sleeved dress and held a bouquet of roses, while the former Beatle wore a dark suit with a white shirt and pale blue tie for the occasion.

Sir Paul's wedding in pictures
Hundreds of fans gathered outside the central London register office to see the couple arrive and depart from their wedding ceremony, and barricades were erected.
A large group of journalists and photographers also waited for several hours before the newlyweds finally emerged.
The wedding party spent more than an hour inside the venue before emerging on the steps of the building.
The couple then returned to their home in St John's Wood, London, for a reception with family and close friends.
When asked how he felt after tying the knot for a third time, Sir Paul told waiting reporters: "Terrific, thank you. I feel married," adding, "I feel absolutely wonderful."
James McCartney, Sir Paul's son, was among the first to arrive for the party at the couple's home on Sunday evening.
