McCartney reportedly files for divorce

LONDON - Paul McCartney has filed for divorce from Heather Mills McCartney, formally beginning proceedings in what could be one of Britain's most expensive breakups, newspapers reported Saturday.

The 64-year-old former Beatle blamed his estranged wife for the split, saying her behavior was unreasonable and argumentative, The Sun and The Daily Mirror reported. Her spokesman, Phil Hall, said she was unhappy about the reports.

"Heather's going to be filing her own counterclaims about matters both in this country and America," Hall said in a statement.

"She does not feel the need to repudiate claims that she may be headstrong or feisty. She is hugely disappointed that matters of such a confidential nature should be aired in public and feels it is inappropriate to speak about such delicate matters when a child is involved."

The couple have a 2-year-old daughter, Beatrice.

McCartney, who does not have a prenuptial agreement to protect his estimated $1.5 billion fortune, has hired lawyer Fiona Shackleton, who represented Prince Charles in his divorce from Princess Diana.

McCartney was photographed Friday without his wedding ring during a visit to his performing arts school in Liverpool on England's northwest coast.

The couple married in June 2002, four years after McCartney's first wife, Linda, died of breast cancer. Linda and Paul married in 1969 and had three children.

McCartney and Mills McCartney, a former model and animal-rights campaigner, met at a charity event in 1999.

I think the split was reported awhile back, but maybe neither had actually filed yet.

His ex wife was a golddigger and he should've realized that from the beginning. He should've made her ass get a job when they were married. I can't stand women who marry male celebrities who don't have jobs. Look at Kobe Bryant's wife. He need to make her ass get a job and stop living off of him. Only reason she stayed with him after she found out about his affair with the white girl is because she knows he's a millionaire and when the day comes to divorce him, she's gonna try to take all his money. Same thing with Lionel Richie's ex wife. He should've made her ass get a job because when she divorced him, she tried to take most of his money. Can you believe Lionel's ex wife still lives with him? LOL. He's a damn fool.
