Sir Paul McCartney has slashed his divorce offer by £43 million
following estranged wife Heather Mills' TV outbursts.
The Beatles legend, who is currently embroiled in a bitter divorce battle with Heather, is said to be fuming after she attacked him on several UK and US TV shows and has now offered her just £7 million.
A source said: "The war between them has just gone to a new level. Paul knows she will go all out to damage his reputation."
During her TV outbursts, Heather blamed Paul for the breakdown of their marriage, claimed she felt suicidal and persecuted since receiving death threats, branded Paul's daughter Stella "evil" and likened herself to the late Princess Diana.
Heather was dropped by her legal team Mischon de Reya following her rants, and she will now represent herself at the next divorce hearing in February.
Paul is convinced Heather's TV appearances have weakened her case and he is confident he can thrash out a £7 million settlement.
However, Heather is planning to hit back by selling 10 explosive secret tapes she made during their marriage.
The 39-year-old vegan - who lost her left leg below the knee following a motorbike accident in 1993 - reportedly has recordings that prove Paul accepted blame for the breakdown of their marriage, took Viagra pills to spice up their sex life and mocked her disability.
Meanwhile, Paul is planning to confirm he is dating Nancy Shevell when they attend Harvey Weinstein's wedding together next month.
Movie mogul Weinstein will marry British fashion designer Georgina Chapman in Connecticut on December 15.
Paul was first linked to the married millionairess after they were photographed kissing in the Hamptons last month.
The pair spent the weekend in the exclusive New York resort, having dinner, enjoying cocktails and visiting each other's mansions.

I liked the Beatles, and Paul McCartney and John Lennon - I grew up with their music. It’s sad to see Paul get taken to the cleaners by a four year marriage to someone who really never loved him, only the coins in his pocket. The prenup is the only way to go - gold-digging whores abound. However, I’ve fallen victim myself a decade and a half ago. I was only married for two weeks when the old lady said to me, “I’m not going out of this with nothing!” So I asked her what she wanted? $50,000 was her answer - damn, that was an expensive lay! I looked at her and said, “ah, dear, my house is a partnership between me and the bank, and right now, I’m the minority stock holder - better name another figure!” Got her down to $500, an old 17” Sony color tv (non-remote) set, and an old Emerson VHS vcr. As it was, she was too cheap to get a (lucky for me) lawyer - I ended up having to give her mine before the referee would continue! When I drove her back home with the $500 cash in her fist, she had me stop at a grocery store to buy four cartons of smokes…“what a waste” I thought! A week after our divorce, she calls me on the phone and asks me how to use the remote? Heh, heh, heh…what a stupid female collie! - Andrew, MALL727net -

Looks like Paul finally gets it that she is really just a simple whore when it comes down to it. Doesn't care about anything but money. Not Paul, not their child Beatrice, not even her own reputation. The tapes probably show her setting Paul up to what else, show his angry side ? Way to go Heather ! You screwed up your life again. And when her daughter grows up she will see her for what she really is. Paul is entitled to his privacy and too bad he didn't listen to everyone who said to STAY AWAY from Heather !!! This is his price to pay. The legacy of music and love that he has given us will never be tarnished by this bad choice. He is entitled to love, honesty and a great relationship in his later years. I hope and pray that he gets it !
