McCartney Mills divorce final
The ill-fated marriage of former Beatle Paul McCartney and his estranged wife Heather Mills came to a formal end during a 30-second hearing at London’s High Court on Monday.
Justice Hugh Bennett said the petition for divorce by Mills was granted on the grounds that the couple had lived apart for two years.
Neither McCartney nor Mills were in court for the decree nisi.
Bennett said: “On the petition for divorce presented by Miss Heather Mills, I pronounce the decree nisi of divorce on the grounds of two years’ separation.
“Sir Paul McCartney has consented to the decree being granted on these grounds.” (news)
