Heather Mills To Sue Over Prostitution Claims

June 14th 2006 10:11
Sir Paul McCartney, from www.wikipedia.com
The soon to be ex-wife of Beatles legend Sir Paul McCartney will be suing a British newspaper for publishing a story about her being a prostitute. Heather Mills denies there is any truth to the story and will be taking the matter to court on the grounds that the statements made were defamatory.

What exactly were the contents of this controversial article? According to News of The World, one of England’s top-selling Sunday papers, the former model was a high class prostitute for some of the world’s wealthiest businessmen. The paper claims that in her 20’s, Heather Mills was paid thousands of pounds a night to service well-known clientele including Adnan Khashoggi, a Saudi Arabian arms dealer. Furthermore, pictures from a 1988 German publication were also released, portraying the 38 year old in what the paper calls “obscene and pornographic” positions.

Lawyers for Mills say that the proceedings will be underway once her divorce from McCartney is settled, which is another interesting story in itself.

The pair married on June 11 2002 in a lavish ceremony in Ireland and officially announced intentions to divorce on May 17 2006. The tabloids are going crazy trying to estimate just how much Ms Mills will be receiving in terms of monetary value post-divorce.

You see, back in 2002 before they were to marry, Mills offered McCartney to sign a pre-nuptial agreement to protect his assets should they divorce. But I guess being so blinded by love, McCartney refused. His fortune is said to be worth an estimated 825 million pounds. I can’t even work out how much that would be in Australian dollars. Let’s just say, the guy is a billionaire and Heather Mills could potentially walk away a very very rich woman.

I dunno, I saw clips of those photos on TV, and they're pretty hardcore...

Sometimes things are taken out of context though and can seem worse than they actually are. Not that I'm defending her, but the media does like to blow everything out of proportion and I totally think that everyone deserves the benefit of a doubt.

Having said that, I haven't actually seen any pics myself. Are they really that bad??

She's trying to get away with saying the pictures are from a "Lovers Manual" rather than anything pornographic. I think that's so silly. Anybody reading a lover's manual is obviously only reading it in the first place because they probably thought it was porn.

I have to admit that I didn't know who she was until they announced the divorce and published those pics. I don't know what people thought of her before, but they're really tearing her up now, saying she was a bad mother and an indifferent wife.

I know! Some of that stuff is so nasty! They are saying she's just a gold digger and other horrible things like that.

I actually did a little research on her and she's done a lot of good things that the media is conveniently forgetting. Like charity work for international organisations and a few years ago when she was hit by a motorcycle and had to have her leg amputated, she raised money to help donate prosthetic legs to those in poorer, war torn countries.
