Heather Mills
Gossip

Ok, so Charles Stapley didn't continually scream that phrase into a phone and follow it with, "I love black people!" But his point wasn't very different from that in Jerry Maguire.

The step-father of Heather Mills, Stapley believes Heather is entitled to 200 million pounds of husband Paul McCartney's money.

Mills is reportedly going after a quarter of McCartney's fortune, but Stapley doesn't believe that makes Heather a gold-digger. What publication would ever use that term to describe this former call girl?

"People are blinded by the sheer size of the money. But that doesn't make her evil. Why should £200million be considered excessive if a man has £800million?" Stapley asked. "Why should the size of the settlement be held against her? Why should she be branded a gold-digger?

"She didn't beg him to marry her. He was quite grown-up when he married her - he was 61 or something."

The man sort of makes a point. It's probably the same one Mills' famous lawyer will use as the divorce carries on.

Heather has not spoken to Charles since 1989 when Heather's mother Beatrice died and Heather married her first husband Alfie Karmal.

They fight like cats, they square off like dogs - and now Heather Mills and Paul McCartney hire lawyers like royalty.

In an interesting twist to the Most Antagonistic Divorce Ever, each side has hired a lawyer that was involved in the Prince Charles/Princess Di proceedings.

On Tuesday, the former sex slave Mrs.McCartney hired Anthony Julius, the attorney that represented Diana in her own split with the prince ten years ago. Perhaps because he's also sort of royalty, Sir Paul then signed up with Fiona Shackelton Charles' legal counsel in that matrimonial matter.

A decade ago, Julius won an approximately $3 million settlement for the Princess. Gold-digging Mills is after A LOT more than that from the ex-Beatle, however.

The lawyer arms race is only the latest development in the McCartney-Mills divorce saga:

Yesterday, Heather went to her husband's home, only to find herself locked out, a circumstance which her spokesman said she found "hilarious."

Here's something else funny about your client: she's friends with Paris Hilton!

Meow! Woof!

According to various sources, the Paul McCartney/Heather Mills divorce is getting uglier and uglier. The former couple is now reportled fighting like "cats and dogs."

The Sunday Mirror says Paul has changed the locks on their London home, frozen their joint bank account and stopped fighting council plans to knock down the lakeside lodge on their estate where Heather is currently living.

But then where will Mills entertain all her gentleman callers?

A source told the newspaper: "It has really got nasty. This is war … Heather and Paul can't stand each other any more and they will fight for everything."

Here's an example of what some may refer to as "absurdly petty:" Heather was allegedly left "speechless" when she received a legal warning after their daughter Bea's nanny took three half-full bottles of cleaning products from their former family home to clearn Heather's new offices.

The warning ordered Mills not to take anything else from the home because the housekeeper was "distressed" by the disappearance of the items.

The source referred to the incident as "astonishing - all over three bottles of cleaning stuff. Heather was absolutely stunned." Of course, McCartney is rather stunned over Mills' gold-digging ways.

Being billed as "the most explosive showbusiness divorce ever," the entire situation has The Gossip downright giddy. And we thought the Jessica Simpson/Nick Lachey break-up was fun fodder!

It's unlikely the Paul McCartney/Heather Mills divorce will end well.

Although Sir Paul initially had no worries that Heather married him for money, fears have arisen that the former sex slave has become a gold digger after she declined a 30 million pound settlement in exchange for a quick divorce.

Heather initially suggested she would agree to a "quick and painless" divorce to avoid getting embroiled in a public battle for the sake of their daughter, Beatrice, but has evidently changed her mind.

In related news, "quick and painless" runs counter to the ways Mills preferred her bedroom shanningans.

A supposedly close friend of McCartney's told The Sunday Mirror: "Paul is a reasonable guy who doesn't like confrontation. He wanted to keep the divorce quick and amicable for the sake of Beatrice - but feels Heather is being difficult and trying to drag things outs."

"In his eyes they had agreed they wanted to make the divorce quick and painless and a settlement was virtually in place - but then Heather started getting unreasonable because she wanted more money."

Hey, Paul, don't say Kanye West didn't warn you.

A source close counters. She says no settlement was offered, let alone refused: "There has been no financial offer … she is outraged by the suggestion she's a money-grabber."

An ass grabber, though? Well, there's can't be much to deny there.

"Paul has always been tight with his money towards her. She was having to pay the mortgage on their home where she was based until a few months ago. She even went on chat shows to raise money to pay staff, people like her secretary. This is likely to form part of her counter-claim," the friend said.

Well, then. Looks like we can look forward to many twists and turns in this divorce case.

Another friend of McCartney's thinks the issue isn't money, but prestige:

"Heather loves being Lady McCartney. It has given her power and influence ... For example, she's met many of the major world leaders … and has become a world famous celebrity on the back of it. And she is terrified that when she returns to being plain Heather Mills all that will be lost."

Have no worries, Heather. Based on certain photos the universe has seen, you'll never be plain again.

Those optimistic that a call girl could find perpetual happiness with a Beatle can finally give up hope: Paul McCartney has officially filed for divorce from Heather Mills.

The reasons given by Sir Paul? He blamed his estranged wife for the split, saying her behavior was unreasonable and argumentative, The Sun and The Daily Mirror reported. The sex photos may not have helped.

Mills' spokesman, Phil Hall, said she was unhappy about the reports.

"Heather's going to be filing her own counterclaims about matters both in this country and America," Hall said in a statement.

"She does not feel the need to repudiate claims that she may be headstrong or feisty. She is hugely disappointed that matters of such a confidential nature should be aired in public and feels it is inappropriate to speak about such delicate matters when a child is involved."

Mills, however, may get the last laugh - or, should we say, the last dollar. McCartney does not have a prenuptial agreement to protect his estimated $1.5 billion fortune. He's hired lawyer Fiona Shackleton, who represented Prince Charles in his divorce from Princess Diana.

McCartney was even photographed Friday without his wedding ring, so all hope appears lost. The lesson, as always: don't marry someone who hates fur. Or has been in like a million orgies.

While fears of being gunned down are on the mind of Heather Mills, new reports are coming in about the latest controversy surrounding this former call girl.

The Gossip will take these rumors step by step, as they've been publicized by a British tabloid:

1. There's a tape of a fight phone conversation between Paul McCartney and his daughter, fashion designer Stella McCartney
2. Mills got her hands on the recording
3. On it, Stella says nasty things about Mills
4. As a result, Mills confronted Sir Paul about the incident

Reps for Paul and Heather had no comment, but we have to wonder: how was a sex tape not involved in this conflict?

Mills and Stella haven't exactly been close through the years. One of McCartney's friends told People magazine in June: "We almost never saw a picture of (Heather and Stella) together. That says a lot."

Regarding the unusual phone call scenario:

"The lawyers have said that anybody connected with this (incident) can't discuss it," says a source close to Heather, who also claims Paul will not pay for Heather's driver/security guard except when she is with their two-and-a-half year-old daughter, Beatrice because "he's saying it's not his problem."

Give the former Beatle a break. Forget the fact that he married a sex fiend - she also loves fur way too much.

Estranged wife and possible former call girl Heather Mills McCartney has been taking quite the spanking by the press of late, but she believes it could soon get a lot worse.

Mills is apparently concerned that she may be assassinated like late Beatle John Lennon. The 38-year old, soon-to-be ex of Sir Paul McCartney fears she will be attacked like his former band mates Lennon and George Harrison, who was once stabbed by a crazed fan.

The model and animal rights activist is also concerned about the safety of her two-year old daughter with McCartney, Beatrice. Mills has been spotted railing against passers-by and paparazzi outside her home, presumably due to how upset she is regarding stories about arms dealers railing her.

"John Lennon was shot and George Harrison was stabbed and loads of kids are kidnapped," Mills said. "People are pursuing me round the country. I said stay away from my baby. I have a catalog of evidence."

The star of "Sexual Secrets," who has been staying with her sister since splitting from Paul, is clearly having a rough go of it, with her frequent outbursts sparking concern among friends about her mental state.

Paris Hilton, meet Heather Mills. Animals everywhere are already grateful for this acquaintance.

Sources claim that Hilton - who has been known to wear fur in the past - became alarmed after watching a gruesome PETA video at the home of Paul McCartney ex, lewd wife. The footage showed dogs being skinned alive for their fur.

Mills told Hilton that going the "fake fur route wasn't foolproof, because some high-end department stores labeled certain garments "artificial fur" when in fact they were the real deal. Say it ain't so!

Hilton reportedly vowed on the spot never to wear fur again. She also asked Mills just wear she could purchase a riding crop and nipple tassles.

According to Paris' rep, Elliot Mint, "Paris does not wear fur, nor will she wear fur described as artificial fur knowing it came off the backs of animals."

Mintz say he and Hilton are "greatful to Heather for educating us on this terrible subject." See, Beyonce? We could all learn a thing or two from these loose women.

Paul McCartney is said to be distraught over further reports that his estranged wife, Heather Mills, modeled for two additional sex manuals during the 1980s.

Mills, who has acknowledged posing for one sex book (which she insisted was an educational lovemaking guide), may have taken her instructional duties to a greater level than originally thought. New pictures are circulating from one guide entitled "Sexual Secrets" depicting Mills being spanked, simulating sexual acts and taking part in bondage.

In one shot, Heather is seen exposing herself, while another photo shows the model draped over a male co-star's knee while he spanks her.

"Sexual Secrets" was published by New York firm Arlington who sold publications worldwide via an erotic book club. The graphic book describes itself as a photo "journey through exotic love acts." It does not contain any words.

The Sun, a British newspaper, also claims that Mills was featured in a top-shelf, adult French magazine. Rumors that Mills was formerly a high-priced call girl have also surfaced of late. The tabloid seems hell-bent on ruining the former model, but nonetheless, a friend of McCartney's reports that Sir Paul is taking the revelations hard.

"This will be yet another bombshell for him. Heather always insisted that her modelling past just included a sex guide," the source said. "Paul's since been made aware of how pornographic some pictures are. He has always thought the press were exaggerating her colurful past, but now he just isn't sure.

McCartney and his wife of four years are still on speaking terms, as they have to care for their two-year-old daughter, Beatrice. McCartney has been splitting time between his homes in London and East Sussex, England, since the couple's May 17 separation. Mills, 38, reportedly visited him this week, but conversations between the Beatle legend and his second wife have understandably turned icy. Mills has said she plans to sue the publications dragging her name through the mud once her divorce is settled.

She'll certainly be able to afford the lawyers. Gold digger.

Money can't buy love... or can it? The New York Daily News reports that Heather Mills McCartney is firing back at British reports that she was once a high-priced call girl who took part in orgies with rich Arabs.

Sir Paul's estranged wife has been dragged through the mud in recent days, with London's News of the World reporting that the when the would-be Mrs. McCartney was in her 20s, arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi paid her more than $11,000 to have sex. The paper also says that a Saudi prince shelled out $9,000 for a threesome with Mills and another woman.

A former hooker, identified as Denise Hewitt, claims to have performed a lesbian sex act with Heather. Their former escort, Petrina Montrose, was allegedly the one who arranged the liaison between Hewitt, Mills and the prince at London's Dorchester Hotel.

Lawyers for Mills McCartney, 38, strongly deny the allegations, calling the sources "unreliable persons who have been paid for these stories," while noting that the former model refuted these same stories when they surfaced four years ago.

But Abdul Khoury, identified as Khashoggi's former secretary, says otherwise, contending that he knows from experience.

"She has repeatedly lied. She was a hooker. I know. I paid her," he said.

The current prostitution claim comes just days after British papers carried saucy pictures of Heather from a German book, "Die Freuden Der Liebe," or "The Joys of Love." Heather and her defenders insist the book was made for educational purposes, as a guide to lovemaking.
