What does everyone think of the impending Paul/Heather McCartney divorce?
- By Daisy [gb] Date 20.05.06 11:57 UTC
It's difficult to know :( Who knows what goes on behind closed doors. If we believe everything that we hear on the television etc, it's all her fault - she certainly has a very strange background etc. However, these things are never as straight forward as that, so I can only hope that their daughter is at the forefront of their minds and that she doesn't suffer (as so many of these children of celebs do)

He married her too quickly after Linda's death in my opinion!
- By Jeangenie [gb] Date 20.05.06 12:00 UTC
Sad but predictable, I'm afraid. :( If Paul's allowed a say in how the baby's brought up then she'll be as normal as his other children - but will that be allowed?
- By Oldilocks [in] Date 20.05.06 12:03 UTC
I doubt it, Heather seems a right 'madam' to me  :)
- By arched [gb] Date 20.05.06 12:20 UTC
Can't say I'm interested in either of them. She was a nobody, he lives on past glory with the help of fans who think he's some sort of God. He's always appeared to me to be very arrogant and with no charisma at all. The apparent claims that he would only do 'Live Aid' last year if he could open and close the show sums him up. I really can't imagine that he is a very nice person to live with.

ps - about time he stopped dying his hair too !

Everything you say, I agree with!!  She made a mega mistake alienating him from his children, she seems a spiteful bi*** to me!
- By spiritulist [in] Date 20.05.06 12:44 UTC
Whose to say really? All I know that when I was working as a nanny in amongst these kind of  showbusy people in London(1978) is that they live in a completely different world to us, rather similar to that of the gentry of yesteryear. What they want they get....and they get it now! The trouble is they don't know what they do want and are easily bored like children. Like the Ab Fab program with Saffy being more adult than the adults in her life, it's very close to the truth.
- By Oldilocks [in] Date 20.05.06 13:10 UTC
........but Heather was not a showbiz person until she met him was she?  and Paul was married for 29 years before   :)
- By Isabel Date 20.05.06 13:12 UTC
I believe she was involved in some photographic works ;)
- By Oldilocks [in] Date 20.05.06 13:13 UTC
Oh Yes!!!......she was a 'model'  :)  :)
- By spiritulist [in] Date 20.05.06 13:24 UTC
Thats true, but she is now isn't she? It's to easy to slip into the sureal world that she lives in now without even relising it and thats maybe why she's gone running home to her family like she has. Perhaps she's trying to get back down to earth and get her head straightened out? Paul was married to Linda for a very long time. Now she didn't like the showbiz life and she more or less dropped out, living on a farm, living the good life and taking him and their children with her when she did. I feel sorry for him. He has been looking for Linda with all his heart and soul and he thought he had found her again in Heather, as they seem to him, to have the same forcefull character, beliefs and strength. But how much of that was Heather the cameleon?

I am undecided aboutHeather Mills/Mc Cartney. I read her autobiography about 5 years ago and as a result concluded that she didn't come across as a nice person. However, no-one can deny the good work she has done with landmine victims and other amputees.

The cynic in me says that she's a gold-digger and Paul McCartney, being recently bereaved, was an easy target. I can't help feeling that the child was an 'insurance policy'. With no pre-nuptial agreement, she had to make sure that she would have some financial entitlement when it all went pear-shaped. JMO, of course ;)
- By arched [gb] Date 20.05.06 13:58 UTC
Linda McCartney died in 1998 (I think). Him remarrying in 2002 wasn't exactly recently bereaved. I've got a friend remarrying this October...his first wife died less than 2 years ago. There is no right or wrong time.
I don't like either of them, but it seems to me that she is doing far more with her life to help others than he, with all his millions, is doing. She was helping the cause of landmine victims before they met.
If she gets money from him good luck to her.....bet she'll use it to carry on her work.
Don't forget, he and his first wife weren't whiter than white - a short spell in prison for drug offences
rings a bell and I read that Heather Mills refused to marry him unless he stopped smoking cannibis.
- By Oldilocks [in] Date 20.05.06 14:16 UTC
Sorry, I was under the impression that it was less than a year from Linda's death when he remarried!  I take your point about the cannabis!  I don't like either of them to be honest.........pretentious twerps.....rich ones though!!  :)
- By Isabel Date 20.05.06 14:18 UTC
They started dating about a year after her death.  That bit seems reasonable to me ;)
- By Oldilocks [in] Date 20.05.06 14:27 UTC
.........but he made such a 'thing' about Linda being his soulmate and then so soon after her death, he is 'having it away' with a girl young enough to be his daughter.....fickle or what???  :) 
- By Isabel Date 20.05.06 14:33 UTC Edited 20.05.06 14:35 UTC
When you have had a long and very close marriage you are probably going to feel loneliness ever more acutely.  I think a year is long enough to start looking.  I wish my father had done the same instead of waiting several years getting more and more depressed.
I don't care for her much myself but I never thought the age difference was much of an issue.  Whatever else you can say about her she never came across as a young flibbertijibbet :).
- By perrodeagua [gb] Date 20.05.06 14:33 UTC
Neither of them do much for me either!  I don't think that she should get 200 million, just a couple would do her for life!
- By Goldmali Date 20.05.06 15:03 UTC
Oh I'd be married to Paul Mc Cartney for a week for one million. :D
- By ange [gb] Date 20.05.06 16:56 UTC
I can't say I care very much but on the whole I agree with arched. Will she still be 'Lady' when they divorce?
- By Dogz Date 20.05.06 16:50 UTC
May I say with reagard to her 'good work' with amputees, A lot of them have false hopes when seeing her as a role model.....Standard prosthectics dont come looking like hers. Many people get disappointed when they realise with out an awful lot of cash that they wont get them to look as good as hers........
- By sam Date 20.05.06 16:57 UTC
million   quid for every week you are married....nice worK if you can get it.....:rolleyes:  personally i nearly fell off my chair laughing when i heard the news...not laughed so much since sir paul came up with the idea of putting a big fence around our farm to keep the foxes out!!!:eek::cool::confused:
- By Robert K Date 20.05.06 17:00 UTC
Some one sent me a great joke via text about this didn't you Libs  :D :D :D :D :D still laughing over it now
- By Dogz Date 20.05.06 17:05 UTC
You can't say that without sharing it ...somehow!
- By Missie Date 20.05.06 17:14 UTC
ooh wonder if it was like the one I got via text, not off libs though ;)
Did it have anything to do with a plane Robertk?
- By Robert K Date 21.05.06 17:10 UTC
NO Missie :)

This one was a miner, an accident and the question of what he would be doing now?

Don't think I'd be a member for much longer if I printed it here :D
- By Missie Date 21.05.06 19:23 UTC
Oh Yes Robert :) I got that one too ;)
- By Lokis mum [gb] Date 21.05.06 19:46 UTC
South African gold miner :D ????
- By squaddy Date 20.05.06 18:16 UTC
I think theres right and wrong on both sides - But i hope the daughter will be ok.

I think she was a swine to argue with his children, and i think he remarried too soon also.
- By newfiedreams Date 20.05.06 18:23 UTC
Personally I think there was ALWAYS going to be THREE in that marriage...Linda still lives on!
