Extracted from Fab: An Intimate Life Of Sir Paul McCartney by Howard Sounes, published by HarperCollins on August 25 at £20.
So he initially baited the trap with a large check and unsurprisingly caught someone interested in money. That changes the perspective of the story quite a bit.

I would have had a bit of sympathy for him.

Two repugnant people making each other’s lives miserable. There is some justice in this world.

I have very little respect for Paul McCartney or the Beatles.
They where pop stars in the 60s. I never liked their music, and could never understand what was so great about them.
I tried, but except for “Jude” I don’t see anything very memorable.
Their art is devoid of values, it’s only feelie stuff to me!
Go ahead and flame, I got my fire proof flame suit on!

At 14, she claimed in her autobiography, shed run away from home. Shed started sleeping rough and mixing with drug addicts, rent boys and prostitutes.
Then she got a Saturday job with a jeweler, from whom she stole resulting in a probationary sentence for theft. Next, Heather strayed into the fringes of the sex industry, finding employment at around the age of 16 as a waitress in a Soho hostess club. I heard she was a member of ...

24 million anything seems like he got out of it pretty good.
I thought he was worth near a billion.

Now, however, he told himself that Linda wouldnt mind about his feelings for Heather. He convinced himself that his dead wife was sending him messages via the wildlife on their Sussex farm. This reminds me of the scene in The Man With Two Brains, where Steve Martin asks his deceased wife if he should marry the golddigger Katherine Turner.

When Pauls tour moved on to Hamburg in Germany, he introduced Heather to his old friends Horst Fascher and Astrid Kirchherr, whom he had met there when touring in the early Sixties. Astrid didnt warm to her.
If I'm not mistaken, Astrid Kirchherr was the fiancee of Stuart Sutcliffe, John Lennon's school friend and one of the founders of the Beatles, who walked away from the band and died of a brain aneurysm before the Beatles became famous. Sutcliffe is one of the people on the cover of the Sgt. Pepper's album. And Paul is still friends with his old band-mate's fiancee. Interesting to know.

And in the two years since the divorce, she has employed a succession of public relations consultants, who have found themselves hard-pressed to improve her image. She should have put her best foot forward.

Seems McCartney’s original assessment of her was about a foot off.

Of course, any woman who married Paul was always going to have a near impossible task: living up to his first wife, Linda, whose image as the ultimate earth mother was only enhanced by her untimely death from breast cancer in 1998. Paul was with Jane Asher for 5 years and they were even engaged in 1967. They eventually broke up in 1968 (after an affair by Paul). By 1969 he was married to Linda.
