Being in the biggest band of all time, the 73-year-old has had no shortage of women throwing themselves at him but it seems the star only had eyes for one lady growing up. Paul confessed to


having a soft spot for the Queen and even said she had a good body in her time. The singer made the revelation in a recent interview with Esquire magazine, although he acknowledged that he


probably shouldn't be speaking about royalty that way. He said: "I like the Queen. When we grew up she was a babe. "Oh, yeah. We were like 11, she was 21 and good looking. And


she had a figure on her. "I shouldn't say this about Her Majesty but we, as schoolboys, we said, 'Look at the f***in' heave on her!'" During the interview Paul


also addressed rumours he is considering retiring at any point soon. "You see so many people who retire and then immediately expire," he said. Paul continued: "Sit at home


and watch telly? That’s what people do, man. Gardening, golf… no thanks. "My manager, who I don’t have any more, glad to say, suggested quite a long time ago that I retire at 50. He


sort of said it’s not a good look. I went, 'Oh, God, he could be right.' He added: "But then I still enjoy writing, I still enjoy singing. What am I gonna do?" Paul


recently ruffled some feathers when he compared working with recent Glastonbury headliner Kanye West with collaborating with John Lennon. He said: "When I wrote with John, he would sit


down with a guitar. I would sit down. We’d ping-pong till we had a song. It was like that." "We sat around and talked an awful lot just to break the ice. One of the stories I told


him was about how I happened to have written Let It Be," he told The Sun.
