Heather Mills is demanding £10,000 a day in her divorce from Sir Paul McCartney.

The 39-year-old reportedly needs £3.5 million a year just "to get by", but is willing to accept a one-off settlement of £40 million for a "high-speed" divorce.

Paul, 64, claims he is worth considerably less than the £825 million fortune he is alleged to have and is refusing to meet Heather's demands.

A source told Britain's The Sun newspaper: "Heather is making extremely large demands considering the brevity of the marriage. Paul wants to be as generous as possible but his fortune has been grossly exaggerated. He is certainly worth considerably less than the £825 million figure in The Sunday Times Rich List. The real figure is probably closer to £500 million."

Paul and Heather attended a private hearing in London's High Court last week which examined Heather's claims that Paul was physically violent towards her during their four-year marriage.

The former model emerged "grim faced" from the London court, sparking reports her claims had been thrown out.

Heather returned to court on Tuesday (06.03.07) for an emergency application said to involve the couple's three-year-old daughter Beatrice.

She represented herself during the 30-minute hearing, but refused to reveal what had been discussed.

What can you say to or about someone like Heather? She is so into herself she is totally oblivious to the world around her. I feel deeply for Paul and his family, especially Beatrice..............That is what she has to look forward to in a mother as she grows up? Paul, hold your head high, you are truly a gentleman.

Is there not some sort of law or temporary restraining order to get this woman some desperately needed help? I know in The States there's ' an involuntary mental health warrant,' to strongly suggest an out of control individual be evaluated and put on proper meds if need be. She beats up perfect strangers-Emmy Levy,rifling through Levys' handbag-a cameraman-granted he was papprazzi but still: and then allegedly loses control in that most controlled of environments, a Court of Law.And this is a nutter who has the audacity to ask for custody of a toddler?
