In one of the messiest and most "covered in mud from all the slinging" divorce battles, like, ever, Heather MIlls has admitted outside the high court that she has achieved an “incredible result”. The Beatle’s former wife had been rumoured to want a whopping £125million from Sir Paul, but he had originally only offered her a generous £15.8million. In a typical long-winded and bizarre rant, Heather harped on at length (in fact, she still is) about all the charities she’s going to help and, despite the huge award, moaned about the courts, saying “The courts don’t want the litigating person to do well.” She also blasted Sir Paul’s lawyer, Fiona Shackleton, droning, “Fiona has handled this in the worse way possible. She has called me names.” Oh, boo hoo. She was also quick to offer advice to other women going through a divorce and wanting to represent themselves, saying, “It’s not easy, but with the power of one...” The power of one? Who the hell does she think she is, She-ra? We’ll have more bonkers-ness as it emerges...
