Paul McCartney’s other half has started shooting the television advert in which she is to take off the prosthetic leg and tell viewers not only how she lost her leg in a motorcycle accident but how she also saw her mother lose a leg twenty years earlier in a car crash.

Baby girl! - 03/11/03
Sir Paul McCartney and lady wife Heather have had a baby girl called Beatrice.

Despite original reports clashing between a new boy or a new girl, it has been clarified that the couple have a daughter. They are obviously said to be ecstatic, announcing ’She is a little beauty."

Beatrice weighed in at 7lbs, and wanted to see the world early, as she was originally expected next month. Paul already has three children from his marriage to Linda, and a step daughter from Linda’s first marriage. This means the biggest age gap between the McCartney children will be a whopping 35 years!

New Baby Beatle! - 29/05/03
Sir Paul McCartney and his lady wife Heather are expecting their first child together.

The couple are delighted, as they have been trying for a child since they married in Ireland in June 2002. Heather has had a few problems with her health and told of her fears that she would not be able to have a child of her own, but it seems that she will be a 34 year old mummy by the end of the year!

Paul already is a father to four children from his first marriage to Linda, namely Mary (33), Stella (31), and James (25) and step dad to Heather (39). So at least he will be well trained in nappy changing duties!!

Heather’s no gold-digger! - 16/05/03
Heather McCartney said she would be ’happy living with Sir Paul in a shed’.

Heather was angry at reports from a recent Channel Four documentary that made out she was nowt but a gold-digger. She says she never married him for his money, and is putting her story across in an edition of the BBC1 series Tabloid Tales.

She said of Paul ’He would offer me anything I wanted, but he admires and respects my independence and I don’t want to be somebody that is suddenly relying on somebody else financially.’

Heather - Always a winner - 22/08/02
Heather Mills has accepted damages of ?50,000 over false claims she was being investigated over charity money. Heather sued the Sunday Mirror newspaper over a feature that alleged the Charity Commission was looking in to money she raised for an Indian earthquake victims appeal in 2001.

Heather, who married Sir Paul in June, complained that the story was unfounded. The former model has spent many years raising money for amputees after losing her left leg below the knee in a motorbike accident in 1993.

She now plans to donate the damages to the Adopt-A-Minefield UK. A statement said she was "pleased the Sunday Mirror has recognised that the allegations were unfounded and that her reputation has been vindicated."

"She is also pleased that she may now concentrate on the important issue of her charity work instead of wasting an enormous amount of valuable time and energy defending her charity and herself," it added.

The Sunday Mirror also agreed to pay Heather’s legal costs.

Biography

Heather Mills has definitely got one hell of a story, she was born in 1968, her mother left the family home when she nine, leaving Heather to care for her siblings under the watchful eye of an abusive father. Heather ran away from home at thirteen and found herself homeless, living under Waterloo arches for four months.

She was eventually "discovered" and started modelling, it wasn’t long after that at the age of 22, that she moved to Northern Yugoslavia, now Slovenia, for a holiday and eventually ended up moving there to build a new life and become a ski instructor. Whilst out there she witnessed the outbreak of civil war and the effect it had on many of her friends. On her return to England she set up a refugee crisis centre, funded by the modelling work that she was still doing, she continued her charity work over the next two years when tragedy struck, on a visit to the UK.

In August 1993, Heather was involved in a road accident with a police motorcycle. Her injuries included crushed ribs, a punctured lung, and multiple fractures of the pelvis and the loss of her left leg below the knee. Realising her modelling career would now possibly be over, she summoned the press into her hospital room and sold her story.

Through the adjustment of returning to ’normal’ life with one leg, Heather found a practical problem that she felt she could solve. Her residual limb, or stump as she prefers to call it, was fitted with an artificial limb. But due to the nature of the wound changing in shape and size, the prosthetic leg had to be continually replaced, whilst the old leg would be discarded. Heather realised that if the redundant prosthesis would never find another use, there must be literally thousands out there just waiting for a new home. With her experiences in the former Yugoslavia, Heather knew that these redundant limbs would be more than welcome in areas such as the Former Yugoslavia.

Heather instigated a nation-wide appeal for the donation of unwanted prostheses, and then employed the services of the inmates at Brixton prison to dismantle the limbs and make them ready for transport. October 1994, just a year after her accident, the first convoy of artificial limbs and medical equipment left for Zargreb. Arriving at the Institute of Prosthetics in Zargreb the limbs were now ready to be fitted. Over 22,000 amputees and victims of land-mine explosions have been helped since the first Convoy left the U.K.

It was not long after that at the young age of 25 that Heather wrote her biography, whilst most 25 year olds could hardly fill a chapter, Heather had a real story to tell. ’Out on a Limb’ landed straight onto The Times’ best-seller list as well as appearing in the 1997 Reader’s Digest Best non-fiction compilation. The proceeds from the book go to raising money for child amputee war victim’s world-wide (although the most publicised are in the Former Yugoslavia). All Heather’s charity work has funded from her own pocket.

Heather has been given many accolades and awards for her work for charity. Former Prime Minister John Major presented her with the Gold Award for Outstanding Achievement; The Times presented her with their Human Achievement Award, and the British Chamber of Commerce not only named her Outstanding Young Person of the Year, but also named an award after her - the Heather Mills Award. If this was not enough, in 1996 she received a nomination for The Nobel Prize and has since received the 1999 "People of the Year Award", The "Cosmopolitan Woman of Achievement 2000 Award", The "Pantene Spirit of Beauty Award" and the "Woman of the Year" by the Blue Drop Group in Sicily as well as lots more.

Heather collected the "REDBROOK Mother & Shakers Award", presented by Hillary Clinton, and she received the Victory Award hosted by the National Rehabilitation Hospital in Washington DC.

If that was not enough, Heather has also done a lot of TV work presenting for programmes such as That’s Esther.

In her personal life, she found temporary happiness with ex-Beatle Sir Paul McCartney. Despite some rather obvious objections from Paul’s daughter Stella, the couple married in 2002 and had a daughter together.

In 2006 both Paul and Heather made a joint statement confirming their separation, after Paul McCartney filed for divorce, citing ‘unreasonable behaviour’. What has followed has been a media storm, with Heather at the heart of the controversy.

The main allegations is that she merely married Sir Paul for his money and fame, with British papers suggesting that this could be the biggest divorce settlement ever witnessed. Heather has always denied the allegation of being a ‘gold digger’, claiming that the separation and process of divorce is ‘worse than losing my leg’.

Alongside her threat to sue national papers over ‘false, damaging and immensely upsetting’ reports about the divorce, it has also been reported that Heather has received death threats since splitting with her husband.

In January 2003, a settlement was announced between the two parties, believed to amount to £32 million, plus a gagging order.
