Star of the moment Carey Mulligan reveals Paul McCartney link

A BAFTA nominated actress wants to meet Sir Paul McCartney – because his midwife mother delivered her father.

Star-of-the-moment Carey Mulligan is busy fighting Hollywood greats Meryl Streep and Audrey Tautou in the race for the Bafta’s Best Actress gong.

But the heroine of An Education admitted she had something else on her mind when she attended the Golden Globes bash in Los Angeles.

Her father is from Liverpool and she said he was delivered at Walton General hospital by Sir Paul’s mother.

The 24-year-old desperately wanted to meet the ex-Beatle, who was a fellow guest at the glittering ceremony.
