Default Heather 'kerching' Mills

She really does herself no favours. She's a z-list celebrity who struck gold in a short marriage to a pop icon, and for that she expects £125m to live on. Now the poor dear will have to struggle by (mention charidee, smile at camera) on 50k per month and find a hovel for a few million (mention charidee again, fake tears).

The government apparently want to see people off incapacity and into work - well they can start with this lady.

I agree,DB. £25m is not bad a pay off. I am no great fan of Sir Paul since the Beatles Days,but all the money he has,he has earned himself and with his partnership with John Lennon. If she had co-written the Beatles songs,that would have been a different matter. The woman is a nutcase - he is well shot of her.

Bravo to both comments; but the saddest thing from Pauls viewpoint is that it was blatantly obvious to us casual observers that it would all end in tears.
Ah well as I`m sure quite a few of us will testify Love is Blind

Apparently she's in the 'Market' for another Man again, who has to be 'Vegan', and 'Solvent'.........well, that rules me out! (Thank Gawd)

Heather Dills is nothing but a greedy golddigger, I'm not interested in her rants or opinions.........she gets on my Tits!!

I read somewhere that she had to sign something (within her marriage to Paul ) in a drawn up contract by Paul and his solicitors to say she was not allowed to publish any books or sell stories of her relationship/married life with him,I am however not sure if this was true though.

I have never been a fan of Paul McCartney or his music really.

Some have said that she deliberated planned the whole thing from Day 1; the meeting, the courtship, the marriage, the child. This seems a little cold and calculating, but many women have done similar things through the ages.

What I'd like to know is if I became Mr Mills and after four years decided to divorce her, how much of that 25 million would I be entitled to?

The divorce settlement laws seem a trifle unfair on the man, and very sexist. Paul earned the bulk of his money decades before she came along, so why is she entitled to so much?

If things were fairer she wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

He should've gone after Jane Asher again, still a babe after all these years!

I wonder how much of her £25mil will go to charity... I suspect that if any of it does it will 'slip out' whenever she feels a need to gain public approval or affection. She did herself no good with her public ranting and I have to agree with the previous posts as to the unfairness of the legal system with its obvious prejudices shown towards women, be it in the divorce courts or in murder trials. It's about time we got rid of the outdated concept of 'the gentle sex'. Anybody who tells you that they only want equality is lying...they really want supremacy...

Frankly, I thought they deserved each other. As always, it will be the kid that suffers, especially now that Sir Paul has achieved the best justice money could buy.....

I met Heather Mills about 15 yrs ago when she was campaigning or something at the place where I was working. When the press and TV people were about she was all sweetness and light .... as soon as they had gone she began behaving like a real diva making demands about his and that and really being unpleasant to all. I didn't like her!

Spose she could invest some in Newcastle United, that would be charity.

The bechmark case is the Ray Parlor case which as far as i am concerned was OTT,and not just because he is a Gooner.Given that she got 10million more than Macca offered and 100 million less than she asked for it is not difficult to guess who can be said to have won.What makes me sick is that soldiers receive a pittance in compensation in comparison to lying back and thinking of England ,or cash jackpots.I have no lve for Macca but this woman has revealed to be the ultimate Gold Digger.Perhaps Warner Bros could revive their 30s series and get her to star in Gold diggers of 2008.

I think she'd be better off investing in the Stock Market
