Lucky Heather

WELL, what can anyone say about rich, deluded Heather Mills?

I always thought old Heather a bit odd but wanted to believe the myth she shouted so loudly about.

She claimed the media disliked her for no reason and had an agenda against her.

Paul is so universally loved that all his women have had a rough time. Jane Asher was never good enough, Linda McCartney not beautiful enough and too domineering until, of course, their love story lasted 25 years.

But Heather's outburst outside the court was jaw-dropping.

If anyone had doubts about why they were divorcing they only had to see this.

Bonkers! Though the sight of the posh lawyer with the Dynasty hairdo clapped to her head after being doused with water by the bold Heather was very funny.

Normally I'm all for a wife getting a fair share of a husband's estate, especially if they help build a family and business.

But how Heather could think anyone would believe she helped Paul build his career is madness. He was a multi-millionaire Beatle when she was still at school.

This is a woman who seems desperate for fame and money and has a totally false view of her place in this world. No wonder she wanted to keep the damning court judgment secret.

She caught Paul at a vulnerable time. He was recovering from the loss of his wife and, having made a decision to live his life the way Linda would have wanted, there Heather was.

He isn't the first - or the last - middle-aged man to have his head turned by a pretty blonde on the make.

I feel sorry for Heather but even more so for her wee girl.

Let's hope Beatrice spends a lot of time with her dad.
