LONDON - Paul McCartney and Heather Mills appeared in court Thursday as British media reported they may be nearing a settlement in their divorce.

But after about seven hours at London's Royal Courts of Justice both left the building in separate cars without making any commen, and it was not immediately known if they had reached an agreement.

McCartney, wearing a dark grey suit, flashed his traditional "V" for victory sign as he left at about 6:45 p.m. in his black Lexus car, passing through crowds of journalists who had waited outside the neo-Gothic building all day. A few minutes later Mills, a former model, left in the back of a Ford Mondeo, her head covered.

The hearing was listed discreetly on the daily court lists only by its case number. Even a small security viewing hole in the door of the courtroom was covered to stop prying eyes.

News reports said the immediate issue was likely to be the size of Mills' divorce settlement from the wealthy former Beatle. Press speculation has recently put the size of the settlement at between 20 million and 50 million pounds, about $40 million to $100 million.

McCartney and Mills announced in May of last year that they were splitting after four years of marriage.

They married in June 2002, four years after McCartney's first wife, Linda, died of breast cancer.

McCartney and Mills have a three-year-old daughter, Beatrice.

Mills, a 39-year-old activist, recently appeared as a contestant on the U.S. television program "Dancing With the Stars."

The McCartney divorce has become the most sensational marital breakup in Britain since Prince Charles and Princess Diana parted ways more than a decade ago.

The divorce is expected to be Britain's most expensive, with a settlement topping the 48-million pound award given to the ex-wife of an insurance tycoon last year.

Legal experts, however, expect that McCartney, whose wealth is estimated at 825 million pounds ($1.7 billion), will insist on keeping the settlement confidential to prevent Mills from discussing it, The Mirror newspaper reported.

The British media reported that Thursday's hearing was the couple's last chance to privately resolve their divorce settlement before having to do that in public in a High Court case next year.

it must sting Heather that Memory Almost Full became Paul's biggest selling album since probably Flowers In The Dirt, and she left him before it came out so she wasn't "entitled" to any of the profits of it, LOL

Heather's bi*ch ass shouldn't get any of his money. She's a skank. I can't stand golddiggers. I wish these male celebrities would stop getting married to these women because most women are only after their money. They should see that everytime they get a divorce from these golddiggers. Kobe Bryant is gonna be the next victim if he ever gets a divorce. His woman is gonna try to take most of his money because i know she hasn't forgotten about him messing with that white girl in Colorado.

personally, i think she only married paul for the money. if she had truly loved him, then she wouldn't have done all that ****, such as posing topless, naked or whatever for some newspaper. didn't anyone watch her appear on dancing with the stars? the woman is a money-grabbing attention seeker, not to mention a skank. paul deserves better

I think this is the first time she HASN'T said anything since this whole fiasco started. I feel really bad for Paul...he had such a wonderful marriage to Linda and I was hoping he'd find true love again.

She did all that modeling (nude and otherwise) PRIOR to marrying Paul. And it isn't like he was in the dark abt her prior modeling history. Her appearance on Dancing With the Stars came after her divorce, HOWEVER, she was asked before she and Paul separated, she declined to do the show at that time.
