Reuters: McCartney, Mills settle divorce 18 March

As part of the deal Mills was awarded a lump sum of 16.5 million pounds and assets worth 7.8 million pounds. McCartney and Mills' split was fought out under a remorseless media spotlight with McCartney pitted against the outspoken Mills. Lurid tales of Mills colourful past appeared in British newspapers. Mills hit back, saying she was driven to the brink of suicide because the media branded her a "whore" and "gold-digger."

Mills is believed by some legal experts to be asking for a payout equivalent to 100 million dollars and that he may be prepared to offer only about half that sum in what has become the most high-profile showbusiness marriage split since Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman went their separate ways.

Paul McCartney's wife left him...

Former Beatle Paul McCartney is expected to find out on Monday (March 17) how much of his fortune he must hand over to estranged wife Heather Mills when a judge rules on their acrimonious and highly public divorce. It's not yet known whether Judge Hugh Bennett will make public all or part of his decision.

Paul has been my neighbour for about 15 years. He's 83 years old and he's an actor. I recorded him talking about his life and I later added animation to it. In this portrait, past and present anecdotes of his life are mixed with drama, but they are told with a simple and satirical narrative.
