Paul McCartney's ex-wife really is trying to make herself the most despised woman in the 21st Century. Not satisfied with getting more money in her divorce settlement than any 10 of us will see in a lifetime, she wants more:

Heather Mills is trying to prove Sir Paul McCartney is worth much more than the £400million he claimed in their divorce battle.

She has told friends she is employing a team of forensic accountants to examine her former husband's finances...

Miss Mills has told friends she cannot look after Beatrice on £35,000 a year, the sum awarded at the High Court.

Who could? If you trick a lonely old rock star into fertilizing one of your eggs, you're entitled to every penny you can squeeze out of him. I say the court should make him cash out all his accounts, convert it into one-pound notes, and throw it, and her, into a big pit. She gets to keep whatever she can fit between her toes.
