Heather Mills to undergo surgery
Jan 9, 2006, 12:49 GMT
Sir Paul McCartney's wife Heather Mills is to undergo surgery following complications caused by the birth of the couple's daughter.
The 37-year-old - who shattered her pelvis and lost a leg in a road accident 12 years ago - has reportedly been in agony since delivering daughter Beatrice, who was born in 2003.
Doctors fear the pregnancy interfered with a metal plate that holds the former model's pelvis in place - and have told her they need to replace it. Heather's spokesman is quoted in Britain's News of the World newspaper as saying: 'She is booked into hospital to have some remedial work because the baby put pressure on her pelvis when she was pregnant and it has been causing her discomfort ever since.' Charity worker Heather joined 63-year-old Beatles star Paul on a US tour last year. An insider revealed: 'She found all the travelling between cities very difficult. 'Paul was really worried about her but she refused to leave him, so they consulted doctors out in the States who advised her to have the surgery as soon as possible.' Heather will have the operation later this month.Copyright 2006 BANG Media International
