Few celebrities have weathered as many extreme ups and downs as Heather Mills. On one hand, the ex-Mrs. Paul McCartney is known by such tags as “Mucca” or “the most hated woman in Britain”; on the other hand, she has managed to carve out a wide-ranging career including lauded charity work, stints on reality TV, and Alpine ski racing — Mills, who lost her lower leg in an 1993 accident, is a multi-medalist for the British Paralympic ski team.
Still, the 47-year-old’s acrimonious 2008 divorce with the Beatle has remained, publicly at least, the centerpiece of her life. In a new interview with Event magazine, she comes clean about some of the reasons behind the split.
Mills is completely frank in the chat, making a slew of provocative statements that are sure to raise eyebrows. She claims: “Losing my leg was easier to cope with [than divorce],” adding that she was “completely in love” with McCartney.
In what might be one of the best understatements of all time, Mills reveals, “for some reason it’s very hard to be married to a Beatle,” adding that her predecessor, the late Linda McCartney, “had it tough.”
As for the most famous (or infamous) Beatle wife, Yoko Ono? “She’s a very wise, very lovely woman,” Mills approves.
Still, Mills does seem to take some of the blame for the split on her own shoulders. When asked why she thinks the marriage ended, she says, “I say what I think. If I think something is wrong I’ll say it. If I wasn’t that type of person we’d still be married now.
“For years I was attracted to these very strong, powerful men who think they want a strong woman but actually they want someone who does what they want.”

Of course not, being stalked!
Paul and his family lived on a farm out in the country in Scotland. The White House has a lot of hidden spaces and a lot of rooms and a lot of people coming and going. JFK had more opportunities. I guess Paul could have cheated during the day, but if they never spent a night apart, then it hardly seems likely that he had the inclination to do so.
I still say McCartney could have done better than a one-legged woman with a homely face. But then I thought Linda McCartney was an odd choice after Jane Asher - who at least is a lovely actress.
The other Leary bit that gets me every time is from his TV series where he is a Fireman. He has to take a cab to work and the driver is from the middle east and they argue all the way to his work place and when he gets out he yells to the taxi driver "Take a hike Habib, don't you have a sleeper cell meeting to get to?"
