McCartney Divorce Settlement: $50 Million
Submitted by Roy on Sun, 2008-03-16 17:20
Apparently Sir Paul and the former hooker* he foolishly married have settled on an award to Heather Mills of $50 million.
I guess there are a couple of ways to look at it: clearly that was a very expensive piece of ass. But $50M is only about 1/20th of his net worth, so he can probably live with the loss.
I'm sure there will also be a "gag rule" put on Heather so that she is not permitted to write a book or go on the talk show circuit to trash talk Paul. I think that has been the source of the legal acrimony all along, rather than the money.
Can't wait to hear Sir Paul's next album of "silly love songs"!

Mills Is Now and Has Always Been a Whore
Adnan Khashoggi (or Kashoggi) (Arabic:عدنان خاشقجي) (born 25 July 1935 in Mecca) is a billionaire Saudi arms-dealer and businessman. He is also noted for his engagements with high society in both the Occidental and Arabic-speaking worlds, and for his involvement in the Iran-Contra, BCCI and numerous other affairs.
In 2006, he was named in the News of the World as a client of Heather Mills when she allegedly worked as a model. As corroboration, News of the World provided an affidavit from escort Denise Hewitt, who said she worked with Mills in the service of "Saudi royalty" (not naming Khashoggi specifically), and that Mills boasted of services rendered to afluent clients earning up to £10,000 in a single night.
News of the World also produced a man named Abdul Khoury, who stated he was Khashoggi's personal secretary from 1977 to 2005 and had day-to-day knowledge of Khashoggi's business dealings and personal affairs. Khoury affirmed the veracity of reports of Mills's providing erotic services to Khashoggi, and in unequivocal detail.
The Daily Mail further produced accounts of other friends of Mills's affirming that she had worked as an escort on other occasions.
