Heather Mills has blasted step-daughter Stella McCartney for only offering her a small discount at her clothes store.

The former model, who is currently embroiled in a bitter divorce battle with Stella's father Sir Paul McCartney, accused Stella of charging her almost full price for her exclusive designs, despite the fact she was married to her father.

Heather's US publicist Michelle Elyzabeth fumed: "Stella told Heather she'd give her just 10 per cent off at her boutique in London - and they were related. But that just goes along with everything we know about Stella now."

Elyzabeth insists Heather "tried and tried" to form a relationship with Stella, but she made it impossible because she was jealous of her.

The publicist said: "Stella never cared for her, but Heather always said, 'She has such a close relationship with her dad, that's all it is.' She never tried to fight with her."

Heather also claims she once personally asked Stella to donate bottles of her perfume for a charity gala, but Stella refused.

Elyzabeth added: "She said, 'No!' What would that have cost her? But we didn't beg. One turndown is enough, so we told her, 'Fine, thank you,' and Elizabeth Arden donated instead."

Stella reportedly threatened to "kill the b***h" after hearing Heather accuse Paul of hitting his late wife and Stella's mother Linda.

Stella recently seemed to mock her estranged stepmother by designing a necklace featuring a single leg.

Heather, who lost her left leg below the knee following a motorbike accident in 1993, branded Stella "evil" during an outburst on live TV earlier this month.

She said: "I can't protect her any longer. She wasn't interested in her dad's happiness.

"Every week she tried to break up my marriage to Paul.

"She's done some evil, evil things. She scraped my face out of a photo when they were in a psychiatric session together."
