Posted: 10/21/2006 8:10:27 AM | No-body knows what really goes on inside four walls. Just how many people have said "Oh my gosh, I'm shocked, I never knew he/she was like that! they always seemed to be so loving and kind!" He was very happy with his first wife and that marriage lasted a very long time until she passed, so I don't think he could have been that bad a person.
Maybe, they just bought out the worse in each other and it just wasn't meant to be.
It must be really hard trying to fill the shoes of a wife that everyone adored. I understand too that his children hated her! Why would you marry someone who your children couldn't stand even if they are all grown up. Stepchildren can put an uwful lot of pressure on a new marriage if they decide they don't like a person.
I would have thought Paul would have been a lot smarter with regards to a pre-nup. So now he is paying the price. | |

| McCartney accused of beating his ex-wife
Posted: 10/21/2006 10:09:33 AM | This is a classic play in a dissolution case where custody and significant fortunes are involved. He beat me. I am the victim here. I should be compensated ridiculously, oh, and yeah, I almost forgot, I should get custody. Anyone know if "fault" is assigned?
Interesting how a man in his, what 60's, suddenly turns into a wife beater. Are there any police reports to support this alleged incident(s)? Are there any medical records to support this alleged incident(s)? I would venture to guess that none exist, but I may stand corrected at some point.
This is a she said he did situation, and unless cooraborrating evidence exists, this comes down to credibility (and maybe who has the better lawyer). Who are you going to believe? A gold digger who is not satisfied with a 30 million dollar settlement offer after 4-5 years of marriage, or a man who has no history of abuse (that we know of) and is now in his 60's. From the information given by the media, she is lacking in credibility.
I am unsure what the laws are where this dissolution is playing itself out, but it was a four or five year marriage, which typically means she will be limited in what she can recover to those years. Everything of Paul's prior to the marriage is non-marital in nature.
I agree with some of the other posters, what in the world was Paul thinking marrying without and antenuptial agreement? This would be a much cleaner divorce had he anticipated the worst...and clearly, he should have known divorce was on his horizon somewhere. She was much too young for him and interested only in his wallet, after getting knocked up, of course. What an idiot.
She'll get more than the 30 million Paul originally offered in settlement. That was a starting point. She will not get half of his estate. She is insanse if she believes she will, or is getting bad advice, or perhaps is being milked by her attorney, which is a real possibility. | |

Posted: 10/21/2006 6:52:15 PM | Rich people sell themselves on their wealth and then complain the
women are gold diggers and were only out to get their money - well, no shit, Einstein.
I don't feel sorry for the billionaires or millionaires who try to upstage
the average guy with their money and glitz only to lose half of
it to an average woman who'd then share it with the average guy.
Karma. | |

Posted: 10/21/2006 6:52:59 PM | | Oh hey, too far people! while mccartney is not, in my humble opinion, in the class of lennon as a songwriter, I was referring to post beatles, when lennon went on to became one of the greatest songwriters ever . However, I have a book of beatles songs, and probably about 200 would be known to most people of our vintage, written by lennon and mccartney. Even post beatles McCartney wrote a LOT of classic songs, and that should never be forgotten! ok? | |

Posted: 10/21/2006 7:22:53 PM | I heard it all started on the east coast of Canada this spring...while they were both protesting the seal harvest Paul got the whole crew out there laughing by smacking Heather upside the head with a frozen codfish.
That is the rumour anyway..... | |

Posted: 10/21/2006 7:40:03 PM | | both of them deserve each other. she deseved every smack from a cod fish, salmon, baby seal os whatever the phuck he beat her with. and after she got the gold digger beat down. he should have been abused by every sailor on that boat. for impersonating a talented song writer. i guess the point of my post is simply, phuck paul mc cartney | |

Ol' Heather hasn't got a leg to stand on...legally speaking, of course. | |

Posted: 10/22/2006 12:52:14 AM | He may have done, only the two of them know for sure. The point is, these kind of allegations can ONLY be for some kind of personal gain (finance, sympathy, whatever...)
Most importantly, they've got a daughter together and imagine what she'll think in years to come when she reads how Mum and Dad behaved.
Seems they both agree they wanna be apart, so there's no need for all this nasty shit, eh? The divorce WILL go ahead and 'Lady Macca' is going to get a small fortune out of this no matter what, makes me sad when people start doing stuff to hurt each other without considering their kids. | |

Posted: 10/22/2006 12:58:13 PM | Hello...
My thoughts:
I really think he did hope for "All you need is love". He must have been aware of a pre-nup but, maybe thought that getting one put in place would perhaps "jinx" the marriage. I, for one, don't think he's been quite the same since Linda's passing and maybe he just wanted to re-create the magic he once had. Can't say I blame him...that was one of the best and most blissful unions ever in showbiz.
Who knows what goes on behind closed doors? Alot of ppl are trying to make $$$ finding out and then dragging things thru the mud though! People should be judged on what thay have done for others and for society. He's not an angel and the jury's still out on him in all this. That said, what he and his mates have given us needs no explanation and will live on well into future generations.
As for Heather Mills, I think it's more than $$$ involved. I mean, how fast would she have spent the 30M plus child support originally offered? Not that she would get anywhere near 1/2 of the 1.6B. UK law is tougher in these matters. I bet it's 4-5 years compensation plus child support. Paul would provide the best of child support anyway. The real sad thing here is that Beatrice might be used as a means of obtaining as much $$$ as possible.
Beyond the $$$ it's the recognition, entitlement (Lady),being on the A - List, media attention, and, most of all, the adoration of his public...even if only by sympathy... the last one will elude her.
I think when Paul wrote "When I'm 64" all he really wanted was to someday grow old gracefully. When all is said and done, I hope he does. If you read the lines, isn't that what people basically want?

Let's see. half of his reported 500 million over a 40 year career..... 250 million for four years of marriage. What is wrong with this picture?
There is plenty wrong with it. She does not deserve half of his money. She should get half of the money earned in the 4 year period they were married. Course, I suppose that is why she married him in the first place. When will older men learn, that money is what the younger women want when they go after an older man. Why else would they tie themselves to a much older man? | |

Posted: 10/22/2006 5:24:47 PM | | I don't believe it. Linda was a strong, take no prisoners woman, she never would have tolerated that. This is just a way of trying to keep him from divorcing her or getting more money. As for John beating Yoko.. nope, she tortured him, did things like threw cat poop out of the litter box on the hallway floor so he could step in it..... nice...... | |

Posted: 10/22/2006 6:16:20 PM | What kind of mother would make stuff like that public??? like a poster already said.......when that little girl grows up.......... She has also apparently said that the media is also to blame for hounding them. Excuse me??? you marry a Beatle....the media will be interested. Especially when you lay around on the ice with wild animals...... | |

Yeah, he married Jerry Hall in some far off land (Goa?) so it wasn't technically legal! | |

Posted: 10/23/2006 10:41:16 AM | | @ mrbpct. thank you for the sympathy. but i think what you may not know and what most people accept as fact, is that mc cartney contributed nothing more than his name to most of those 200 songs in your beatle hymnal. it's kind of like columbus discovering america or the pilgrims landing on plymouth rock and having a turkey dinner with the indians. nice little stories but just not very factual. and what are those classic songs mc cartney wrote post beatles. i mean you did say there were a lot didn't you? | |

Posted: 10/23/2006 11:38:21 AM | Did anyone think that Sir Paul and Long Joan Silver were going to live happily ever after? Come on! Let's not kid ourselves. But regardless of what you think of Sir Paul, or not, think that this kind of scene is repeated ad nauseum every day all around the world. But it doesn't make the back pages.
We can only wish Macca the best, buit life is too short to be reading about the dirty laundry of the rich and famous. I'm sure every one of us has plenty of our own.
I say this in spite of the fact that I AM a lifelong die-hard Beatles fan. | |
