McCartney and Mills to separate
Former Beatle Sir Paul McCartney and his wife Heather Mills are to separate after four years of marriage, the BBC has learned.
Sir Paul and Mills, a former model, married in June 2002. They had a daughter, Beatrice, a year later.
They met through Mills' charity work, which she began after losing a leg in a motorbike accident in 1993.
Sir Paul was previously married to Linda Eastman from 1969 until her death in 1998 from breast cancer.
Recent reports suggested he and Mills had been living at separate addresses.
But Mills last week told one newspaper: "It's hilarious. Of course we are together.
"Paul and I are still very much together. Paul and I are together 100%."
Sir Paul has been world famous for five decades following the global success of the Beatles in the 1960s.
He received a knighthood in 1997's New Year honours.
Mills formed the Heather Mills Heath Trust, recycling prosthetic limbs and campaigning against landmines, after being hit by a police motorcycle as she crossed a road in 1993.
She is now founding patron of UK charity Adopt A Minefield, along with her husband.
