Paul McCartney’s wife attacks ‘media spin’
p2pnet news | TV:- “I’ve had enough, I’ve soooo had enough. I’ve had 18 months of abuse.”
The quote comes in a Heather Mills McCartney interview on Britain’s GMTV.
Paul McCartney’s ex-wife says she’s had threats on her life because of stories in the mainstream media an accuses a “certain corner” of, “feeding spin to the media to smear her,” says GMTV, going on:
Sir Paul McCartney’s estranged wife, who is locked in divorce negotiations with her husband, also launched a fierce attack on the media for ‘pushing her to the edge’ and called on the public to stop buying tabloid newspapers.
She compared the media’s treatment of her to that of Kate McCann and Princess Diana, and said she had received death threats and been ‘close to suicide’.
In the interview, she says the only break she had from “continual media intrusion” was when she was in the US.
“I would live in America in two seconds, but I live here to keep my daughter close to her father,” the story has her saying,
She goes on:
“There is so much fear from a certain party of the truth coming out that lots of things have been put out and done, so the police came round and said ‘you have had serious death threats from an underground movement’. That means my daughter’s life is at risk, because she’s with me all the time.”
The, “most sensational claims made during Mills McCartney’s acrimonious break-up with Sir Paul came in an extraordinary document widely believed to have been leaked to the media by the Mills McCartney camp,” says GMTV, adding:
“The document – which she denies leaking – made a series of remarkable claims about the ex-Beatle’s behaviour during their five-year marriage.
“There were also claims that Sir Paul changed the locks at the marital home, froze her bank account and removed £10 million-worth of paintings from her house.”
Paul McCartney allegedly offered Mills $40 million in a divorce settlement, “but reports claim she is holding out for $100 million,” says the San Francisco Chronicle.
But, “Contrary to reports that she is demanding tens of millions of pounds from Sir Paul, she said she had been ‘offered nothing’,” says The Telegraph, continuing:
“She added: ‘How do you know if I even want any money? I’m £1.5?million in debt in lawyers’ fees, and that’s as much as I can say or I go to jail, for telling the truth.
“So I’m gagged at the moment because I’m not allowed to say a word while the media are fed this spin by a certain corner.”
