The much reviled Heather Mills received a nice little payout yesterday as part of the proceedings of her divorce from Paul McCartney. A tidy sum of nearly 25 million pounds for a four-year marriage to an ex-Beatle. Originally she filed for £125.000.000 which would have been even nicer but you can't have everything. I heard on the radio today that her auto-biography is entitled 'Out on a Limb', which seems incredibly crass because of her missing a leg.
She can't stop talking about all she does for charity and while blaming the press for her anguish she is always seeking publicity. I cannot say that I was very aware of her existence before her much-publicised break-up with Sir Paul.
It's unbelievable, however, to see just how much vitriol is heaped upon her by the newspapers, and especially the tabloids. It's one thing to take a dislike to a brazen, brassy woman whom you suspect from being a bit of a gold digger but there have been so many horrible jokes and insults based on her losing a leg in a terrible motorcycle accident a few years ago. When the press over here don't like you you'd better run for cover or muster everything you've got in protecting your self.
