Heather’s trying to get the leg up

The Heather Mills-Paul McCartney divorce is starting to get really really nasty. According to a friend of Mills, Heather is prepared to say some pretty crazy and unsubstantiated things about the former Beatle in an effort to gain full custody of their daughter Beatrice. The most damning claim is that Paul was such a bad parent that he drove two of his kids to contemplate suicide. However, Paul’s children are backing their father, saying how much they love and admire him. Mills is undeterred. According to a friend, she’s decided to take a more proactive role in the handling of the divorce case:
“She is also acting as her own lawyer - having fired her divorce attorneys because she felt she could do a better job herself” (Source)
When did Heather turn into a crazy schizophrenic serial killer? Because those are about the only people who fire their lawyers and represent themselves. Is there a number less than zero? Because that’s the chance Heather has of actually winning this. You could be a double arm amputee defending yourself against pickpocket charges and you’d still lose once the jury heard you were acting as your own lawyer.
Regarding the financial terms of an alleged settlement, Mills’ friend reveals:
“Paul gave Heather a gorgeous London home, but now she wants a home in L.A., too. At first, she told Paul she would walk away for just $100 million - which is very cheap. He is worth billions. But now that [the divorce] has gotten so nasty, she wants more.”
Walk away? Oooh, really unfortunate choice of wording. Now I don’t want to be a dick here but, with Heather, wouldn’t it be more of a hobble?
Mills isn’t the only one throwing mud:
Allegations on both sides of the case have gotten gnarly. McCartney’s friends claim Mills, who had to suffer through nude porno shots of her published by London papers last year, is an unstable liar and may have worked as an escort in her youth.
Daddy always told me escorts are just angels from heaven put on earth to touch as many lives as possible. And angels never lie. So therefore Paul must be lying. And there’s also a very good chance he hates kittens and minorities. Bulletproof logic? Why yes, yes it is.

Wow, Heather Mills is really jumping into attack mode, feet first. See what happens when you marry beneath your station in life? You generously offer a hand, and they want a leg.
