Heather Mills' phone fury

Heather Mills blasted estranged husband Sir Paul McCartney for spending the weekend with a married woman.
The former model, who is currently embroiled in a bitter divorce battle with Paul, phoned The Beatles legend in a rage after photographs of him kissing millionairess Nancy Shevell were released yesterday (06.11.07).
A source told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "She rang him and there was a huge row. Heather asked what the hell he thought he was up to. She was furious because he hadn't told her about Nancy himself.
"She asked him how he thinks their daughter Beatrice would feel to see her dad and his new girlfriend splashed all over the newspapers. Paul couldn't believe Heather thought she could take the moral high ground after viciously attacking him on TV last week."
Paul was seen drinking cocktails, walking along the beach and dining with Nancy in exclusive New York resort the Hamptons last weekend.
He also met the US socialite in London on October 11 - just hours after appearing in court to thrash out his divorce settlement with Heather.
The 65-year-old musician reportedly saw Nancy on two consecutive nights at Chelsea's Blakes Hotel.
A source said: "I don't think they've spent the night together. It is quite a romantic relationship.
"Nancy is beautiful, but also very intelligent. She is also very rich, so she's not after his money."
Nancy - who revealed she is legally separated from her New York lawyer husband Bruce Blakeman - was diagnosed with breast cancer just a year after Paul's first wife Linda began battling the disease. Paul was left devastated when Linda died in 1998.
A source revealed: "Paul admires Nancy because like Linda she is brave and always remained positive. They have opened up to each other about how cancer has affected their lives."
Yesterday, Nancy admitted she found the attention surrounding her relationship with Paul "embarrassing" and refused to comment on the romance.

I have to agree with Tina. Not a fan of Heather Mills. Nothing is black and white in any divorce but this was a bad move by Paul. Poor Bea - my heart is going out to her right now. Also, don't forget about the reported Stella necklace fiasco (not sure if it is true, but stories that a one leg necklace may be coming out for her next collection). Seems like very poor taste from a family that wants to be respected. What are they thinking?
I'm no fan of either but give me a break. Heather Mills is just wrong. What a money grubber. As for Paul, he has a right to go out with a woman who is legal separate for god's sakes. Mills is a leach and is just thoroughly disgusting and it just sickens me that she gets TV time. She doesn't even deserve the $50 million he offered her. What the hell did she do to deserve that much of his money? She was barely married to the man. That money belongs in a trust for his child.
I did not think about it that way until now. Yes, looks like Paul could have been running the show all the time and trying to control her - although I think she needs to be controlled. Didn't her PR guy just quit? Could that be because he was a Paul loyalist and she did something that Paul did not want her to do? A lot of people say that he has plenty of secrets to hide.
I also agree that they can do what they want but he should have gone to great lengths to stay out of the public eye until his first marraige was all wrapped-up and official (to protect his child). If there was no child, then I would not feel this way. With his money and influence, he could have discretely carried on the affair and made sure it was not discovered until he wanted it to be - and perhaps Tina is right that this was the time he wanted it disclosed in an attempt to get back at Heather? No bones though, Heather is ridiculous and deserves very little, but Paul has gone way to the bottom of the ladder in my opinion. Not a good move.
Yes, Heather is a leach, but it is starting to look like some of what she is saying may be the truth. Men promise lots of things at the beginning of relationships and he may have said that he would take care of her if things did not work out. Then he probably told her to stay quiet and she did until she couldn't take it anymore. That being said, it is pathetic if she is using money to get back at him for his actions. Neither of them seem to be thinking about the little girl.
I saw on one of the Entertainment shows in the U.S. where it said Paul is not going with that woman. It was just a rumor.
I think the picture of them kissing speaks for itself. That is what the daughter will see. Paul should have thought before acting, even if it was 'innocent' it does not look that way.
Yes, like the McCann story, this story does get more interesting by the day.
The activity of Paul, Heather, and Stella is pretty bad.
Like the McCann story, the long the story drags, and we can see through the PR spins and red herrings, even more compelling. This new story about Paul and the American millionairess tells me this:
Paul was a wealthy and powerful and beloved figure, and still is, as he at least has tried not to malign the mother of his child, and even the lowest money offered would be more than enough for us to live out our material dreams.
1. I think he knew she was a call-girl, at the time of marriage, he had been around a lot in younger pre-Linda days, and face it, that type of job must give a lot of technical skills to a woman, whose way of speaking is false, tinny, shrill, and somewhat lacking in cultural content.
2. She has done some good with her charity work, as she was up for the Nobel Prize, though even legitimate charities can make a lot of money for the people running them. It is also a business,
3. The timed release of the call-girl info - and she went for top dollar, and ran that like a business, with rich Arabs - seems to be plan on the part of Paul to reduce the divorce money - reasonable perhaps on his part - and maybe a warning to her to keep her trap shut - to have full custody.
4. So he is more calculating, manipulative, and not so much the little victim his fans make him out to be - though, all in all, there are far worse celebrity husbands. Her low self-esteem from her childhood is bubbling out in a crazy competition with a famous global icon, and a stupid lack of concern for her child.
She could just her phone and mail pass through others to avoid various threats.
5. Even now, the new woman is driving her to craziness, Still why did he pick another man's wife - and she was with the husband less than 3 months ago, The look on the husband's face tells he is angry with this.
Paul is quite smart though, the courts on awarding full custody to him, will like to know there is a respectable woman in the home, she does not want his money, she has proven herself to be a good mother and wife for decades, Paul could see that, and now she leaves for the alpha male og greater celebrity, and that Lord and Lady stuff is magnetic for North Americans.
Louisa - some verrrrry good points! If this had settled long ago, I don't think we would have seen all of Paul's calculations. Don't get me wrong, Heather is no angel either. But here, neither of them let it settle. I think some of her story(ies) is true (and some probably isn't). Ditto for him. All the manipulations are crazy and makes you wonder what else he has covered-up and/or manipulated in the past. It is this kind of stuff that makes me no longer a fan of his (and his family) and I already could care less about Heather.
Looks like Paul has been manipulating it all along while saying he has kept a 'dignified silence'. I think she is guilty too (very guilty), but she does not have as much to lose as he does.
And how many 4 year olds read the paper or need to see them unless someone makes sure they do - gimme a break! If this child is so smart, perhaps she's seen and read all the outbursts from her mother as well???
Heather Mills needs to keep her mouth shut and quit acting like the low-class bimbo she was before she married Paul!!
I'm reading this and it finally hit me that you all may have a point. Heather is not saint, but Paul is rich enough to do a background check before the marriage (he knew what he was getting). If I am not mistaken, the tabloids had a field day with her before the marriage, so it would make sense that he promised her that he would take care of her/protect her, etc. as long as she continued to be by his side (i.e., support after the death of his first wife, etc.) Now, he is just sitting back knowing (thinking) that he has a fan base that she cannot compete against and they will side with him.
I'm guilty, I originally blindly sided with Paul without even giving her a second thought - but not now. Looking at what has been going on, it seems like he is saying that his official word is 'silence', but then he has carefully placed 'friends' say this and that and then the picture. He could have taken measures to stop that from happening. Apparently they were together for months before now - why now/what is with the timing? Has to be to get back at Heather. What is poor Bea going to think when she gets older and notices that this happened before the divorce was final? Now, Heather has her own issues and I do not care for her - but I think the McCartney PR machine is in full stride. It worked at first, even with me - but I am not going to trust anything having to do with that family anymore.
From all reports the news that Paul's daughter designed a one-legged necklace in mockery of Heather was all false - so how much more of this crap is the same garbage, and besides, who should give a sh**????
As stated before, my kid gets into everything and loves pictures (especially when someone she knows is in it). Not as 'ridiculous' as you think.
Even if the necklace 'story' ends up being false, it may not have been at first. Remember that Stella is in control of her own 'articles' and could easily change her next line-up to remove that item is she got a lot of negative press (like now) over it - and later claim that it was all false, etc. I think Heather is an oportunist, but I also think that Paul was aware of that (and so was his family). Now they are trying to use their contacts, money, the press, etc. to get her to do what they want. I won't say that I am chaging sides, because Heather is just a piece of work in her own right, but I can say that I am now neutral and will not fall for the conclusions that the McCartney 'clan' wants me to come to based on the PR they release (or have released.
I agree - Paul was hitting out at Heather and trying not to get caught. I appreciate the strategy of it all, but the problem is, he did not think about how this would hurt his young child (and hasn't he been saying from day-1 that he wanted to protect her). He let her PR go too far and the scary part is that he gives some credence to Ms. Mills' claims (although I do think she is a bit wacky). This has only hurt Paul in my eyes because I never thought much of Heather. They may have been up to this from day one. We will never know, but I am getting skeptical of his side.
Let's all believe everything we read and let the so-called news of these celebrities take up hours of our lives!
I think you are missing the point ... I think what everyone is saying/writing is NOT to listen to what these people are up to as they are manipulating it to their own ends and just go on with your lives. Don't listen to what the PR firms are dishing out (what an easy career though).
Paul is a remarkable talent, and that's what I'm interested in and pay to hear, not his private life. That doesn't affect his talent EOS! And I have to agree that most 4 yr olds don't read papers, and if they are made available to her so she can see pictures taken of her father with another woman, shame on the person who is the supplier - she can't go out and buy them herself!! Heather can't stop ranting anywhere and everywhere, and it is getting sickening!!
So Janie, if I understand what you are stating - your argument is that I will pay for his artistic work even if he is a jerk? This is America, that is your right ... but I do not follow the rule that just because someone is talented (you have to think everything they do is 'ok'. I also don't believe that you should receive deference just because you are 'older' or just because you are money. I don't believe in blindly following anyone thinking they can do as many ghastly things as they want as long as they turn out an album ... but if you do that is your perrogative and karma.
and are you saying you believe everything that is said or written as the total truth?? As far as Paul is concerned, this is just another celebrity relationship/marriage that didn't work - wow!! He isn't exactly an ax murderer, and I still say I don't pay for his personal life anymore than I would boycott 'Dancing With The Stars' because I think Heather is a bitch!!
Calm down Jaynie - It looks like the point is that he is trying to come off as a 'saint' and he isn't (and she isn't either). If someone does not want to buy his stuff or wants to boycott whatever she is up to - let them. Why get so worked up about it? On the other hand, a family purposely keeping someone down so as not to tarnish their image - that just gets creepy :)
say do you believe everything that is stated or written? And I do believe my comments are quite as calm as yours, and furthermore, I still don't give a damn about their personal lives one way or another! EOS
I have to agree with Tila. Seriously, these folks place themselves in the public eye as part of their 'job'. Therefore, I see no problem with someone taking the position that they no longer want to purchase/promote an individual that has taken actions that they do not agree with (even if that has to do with their personal lives). In contrast, if this was someone who did not rely on public perception for their bread and butter, then I would say that Jaynie is correct. However, Paul definitely relies on public perception and this comes with it. He claims he is not a 'celebrity', but rather a musician and performer. However, that distinction went out years ago and not much separates. Same with Stella, she uses her name for her store. Sorry, again, I'm with Tila as long as this is a person who relies on the public for his/her profession - and I think both Paul and Stella fit that bill.

Ok, I was originally on Paul's side on this whole thing - thought the 'dignified silence' was a nice way to go. However, I see this as his PR arm trying to keep the silence, but get a dig back at Heather for her recent rants (he knew he would be photographed and he could have prevented it). There is a child involved and this will hurt her for the rest of her life.
I still don't like Heather, but I now think there may be some truth to her story that she told him about her past at the beginning of the relationship and while everything was lovey dovey he said he would protect her (even if the marraige went south). Well, it did, in a big way, and now I think he has not stood by his promise (although, divorces are difficult and other things may have hapened). Perhaps he is trying to control the situation (and he tried to control her) only he does it in a way that is less 'in your face' than Mills? As a successful, professional woman - I just see this move as childish especially with a child involved. I have lost respect for Paul (and I never really had any for Heather).
