Water Show As Lady Heather Mills’s Baptism Fiona Shackleton
LADY Heather Mills is the star of “Mucca chucksa cuppa water over Macca’s lawyer Shacka.”
So says the Sun on its front page. Or as the Mirror has it: “WET IT BE.”
Lady Heather Mills, The First Beatle, Goes Bea Class
With the unpleasantries over, Lady Heather is said have picked up a glass of water and tossed it over Paul’s lawyer, one Fiona Shackleton.
Heather, patron saint of get-along mums, says Shackleton has been “baptised in court”. With Mother Theresa now passed over, the world looks to the woman the nun most envied, Lady Heather, for spiritual guidance.
But what of Shackleton, the woman whom the Times says saved her client about £100million?
Pictures before the soaking are of a frosty figure channelling Margaret Thatcher’s hair atop an expression that suggests a vagrant is waving a dog turn under her nose and then eating it.
After her soaking, Fiona is transfigured to the blonde with the slicked-backed golden locks. Her face is relaxed and refreshed. Her eyes shine with enlightenment.
Lady Heather seems to have rid Fiona of her demons, and she looks good on it. Fiona Shackleton is a woman reborn.
Stood alongside Sir Paul, one cannot help but notice how well they look together.
Can it be? Might it be..?

Isn’t Fiona Shackleton an Officer of the court and wouldn’t such an action be classed as contempt of court. Can any Lawyers advise please.
Oh, sorry I forgot. My credit card number is 4929……………..

Throwing water at someone in court surely would warrant something being said about that, or does the court view the situation as the rant of a mad woman.

the loser in court is always treated gently by the judge.
heather lost big time - being granted only 9% of Sir Paul’s money and £35k a year. nothing, really. the judge must have let her have her outburst because he/she knew Paul would be laughing no where near his bank.

What will happen if Heather goes ahead and appeals on the basis of details being leaked, or rather, being made public. She may try to get a bit more, what a cheek.

what is the use of blaming the lawyer anyway she was hired by PM to look after his side of things with his full approval…she has a hate for all lawyers and was waiting for her moment to vent her rage

Heather Mills is nothing more then a gold digger. She should be more then happy
she got what she did. Using Pauls child as an excuse to try and extort more money is a disgrace. I’m suprised Paul didn’t see thru her before they got married. As far as I’m concerned she was just a rebound for his loss of Linda. There was no greater love for him and never will be then Linda. Why would she even try and fight the world’s most loved person.

If Shacka can represent Macca, she may be just the type to represent Madeleine’s bastard parents, the ones who abandoned their daughter to her fate, night after night.

She could pull up a tanker truck outside and drown the whole place but….
She still lost!
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving loonie really.

I’m confused. When did 9 mill sterling represent losing?
If I was him I’d be happy to souvenir the spare leg. Put another leg on the fire ….

Sorry, I did the maths wrong!!!!! 24mil of 800 mil is about 3% of Paul’s assets.
It is amazingly unfair to heather, and i am not being sarcastic, considering what percentage practically every other man have to give.
If Paul were an average Paul with a wife who moved into his one house and has a kid of similar age, she’d get half his house and the use of that house until the kid was 18 or 19. Plus, if he’d probably only get to see his kid every other weekend and one day during the other week, if he’s lucky and the mother doesn’t freeze him out or do a runner to New Zealand.
24 mil seems like a lot but compared to what you and i have to give, it’s nothing.

I love Heather.
She made Paul entertaining. And having seen some footage of him in the 70s - that is no mean feat.

Here’s my typically British view of the story.

12 I dont believe them
Why do you think a woman (and I am one) is entitled to a huge chunk of her husbands money when they divorce? £24.3m is a VAST amount of money for anyone?
They were only married for 4 years for heavens sake!
She has a house from him, £35k a month for their daughter and £24.3m for herself……..
March 18th, 2008 at 3:08 pm
i don’t think she deserves the money.
on the other hand, the courts usually grant other divorcing moms a much greater percentage of the father’s income than the percentage that Heather is to receive. she is getting maybe 3% of Paul’s wealth. If she was married to a builder or a doctor she might end up with close to 50% of his wealth and leave the father in a bedsit.
i love sir paul, but he has been treated very, very kindly by the court. meanwhile, the rest of us divorced dads starve.

Paul was devoted to his first wife, after watching her die slowly deserved a much better deal than Heather.
(HELL) she was an international sperm bank, and she could not pull one of them.

Just because it is so does not make it right….I think gold digging women (and men for that matter) should take heed and not think they are ‘entitled’ to money when a marriage ends
That said, a women or man who has been married for a long time and devoted themselves to their other half should of course be viewed differently. Mucca wed, birthed his child and then stood with her hand out….disgraceful!
March 18th, 2008 at 7:30 pm
She actually said herself ” Everyone knows that he was worth 800 million 15 years ago” so why does she think that shes entitled to any of it? She should get half of what they have both earned since they have been married(like the rest of us) not including the interest in his bank account!!! Dont forget the late mrs mccartney, earned some of that money too!!!!!!
March 18th, 2008 at 7:33 pm
17 cheshire set - disgraceful, yes. but Paul got off cheap - very cheap. there a probably hundreds of thousands of men in similar situations (short marriage with one young child) who has had give over almost everything. you could say that most women who leave divorce court have behaved ‘disgracefully’!

Karen 13.
You go and wash your mouth out, talking like that about my next husband!
24 mill for four years living in luxury? I could do that and of course he was my very first love in the 60’s! Aaaahhh, 1963, bunking school and sleeping on the pavement for four days to get tickets to see the Beatles. I deserve a cut of his 800 mill for that alone!
