Paul McCartney has fueled speculation he’s set to marry girlfriend Nancy Shevell – after the pair were spotted visiting an LA jewelery store.

The couple – Paul, 66, and Nancy, 49 – reportedly spent over an hour at the Beverly Hills boutique of Neil Lane – who has made engagement rings for Madonna, Heidi Klum and Reese Witherspoon, according to the Sunday Mirror.

“Paul had a spring in his step and Nancy was giggling,” an onlooker said.

Reports last month claimed Paul and Nancy were preparing to walk down the aisle after receiving the approval of the former Beatles’ fashion designer Stella.

“All Paul’s children had massive reservations about Heather – but it was Stella who was the most vociferous,” a well-placed source said at the time.

“Getting Stella’s seal of approval was very important for Paul.”

Paul last year finalized his divorce from Heather Mills. Shevell recently divorced her husband Bruce Blakeman, leaving her free to marry.
