Should Heather Mills give her half of Macca cash to charity?

[kevb0444]

Well should she? She claims she isn't a gold digger and that money would have gone to charity when Macca died. She also has her own charity and probably doesn't need all that money.

[kazzianne]

i think it would be wrong for her to have half when they were together such a short time and he spent years and years earning that money.I think she should get some sort of settlement and make a donation to charity yes.As you said ,she has spent forever telling people she isnt interested in money!

[4getmenot]

They should have made a prenuptual aggreement if he didnt want her to have half. So its up to her what she does with it really. And she does enough for charity herself. And in fact not being funny but I couldnt care less. Just another divorced couple :-)

[kevb0444]

But thats �200 million that WOULD have gone to charity (when Macca dies). Now only she knows what will happen to it.

[4getmenot]

Well maybe it will still go when heather dies. Sorry if I dont agree but you asked for opinions :-)

[Pippa68]

I hope she uses it to leave the country & never shows her ugly mug in Britain again..small price to pay!

[ali_alic]

But it isn't half - only(!!) a 1/4 of his fortune. He will be left with a piffling �600 million. How can anyone need that much money anyway. Why is he waiting to die before handing it over, surely he could give �400 million away now and it would hardly change his lifestyle. He would also be around to make sure the money is going where he wanted it to. Or is it a tax issue if he gives money before his death??

Personally,i think she's earned that money,she's been helping the aged hasn't she???

[ali_alic]

but "Money can't me love, everybody tells me so"

[ludwig]

No, she should give it back to McCartney. It is his after all.

[WaldoMcFroog]

Not only has Mills denied being a gold digger, but Macca has said it's not true either. In fact, since the split he has denounced such claims as lies upon his website.

Moreover, Mills was happy to sign a pre-nup, Macca was the one who said it wasn't necessary.

Mills does a lot of charity work and we have (and nor should we) no way of knowing to what extent any money recieved in settlement might be used to support her charities. We don't know how much she might ask for or indeed receive until it happens.

The woman's hardly Bin Laden, but the level of hostility against her is absolutely incredible; indeed disproportionate to anything she's ever done.

Genuine question: is this just jealousy? Why the hatred?

[ali_alic]

According to todays papers she's only getting �25 million and thats on the condition that their child's palce of residency is with Macca. Tho apparently they are both going to have unlimited and unrestricted access to her. I think thats very gown up of them both.

For gods sake, mind your own businesses!

[ali_alic]

This wouldn't be much of a website if we did equalsmc2.

[Booldawg]

wasnt she in The Railway Children?

[marwel7]

Why should she?

It is,after all,some compensation for all the crap she has had to take from the press since she married him.

As for being a golddigger,she did have a successful career prior to her marriage.

There are two topics intermingled:

Press Speculation - is this really what news should be about - someone elses misfortune?

t is sad that the relationshipp has failed - Let It Be?

Divorce Asset Sharing - a complete mess especially after the two recent Law Lords decisions - fossilised idiots ........ too ling a topic to write about here

[Qmark78]

Shes gave half her leg it seems

Paul McCartney's fortune of �800m or whatever isn't cash in a savings account. It'll be in property, shares, rights to his music catalogue etc. Not something you can donate to charity as easily as a tenner in your wallet.

I'd imagine the amount he has available to spend as cash is a relatively tiny percentage of that �800m.
Also, it's none of our bloody business what he and Heather do with their time or money.
