From Yahoo: <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/launch/20060605/en_launch/32977772" target="_blank">http://news.yahoo.com/s/launch /20060605/en_launch/32977772</a> Pornographic photos of Paul McCartney's estranged wife, Heather Mills, have surfaced in the British tabloid The Sun and on newspaper's website, www.thesun.co.uk. The photos were taken for a hardcore German book titled Die Freuden Der Liebe--The Joys Of Love in 1988, five years before the motorcycle accident in which Mills lost one of her legs. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I went out to the Sun website... Yep, it's her. So my comment is this... If it turns out that Heather didn't disclose her "past" BEFORE marrying one of the world's most well-known public figures... She should be hung out to dry. And here's more... Looks like she may be headed back to Larry King to share the details on the breakup. Anything for a buck (or a pound), eh Heather?? <a href="http://uk.news.yahoo.com/06062006/344/mills-spill-beans-king-show.html" target="_blank">http://uk.news.yahoo.com/06062 006/344/mills-spill-beans-king-show.html</a> Heather Mills McCartney may be being lined up to spill the beans on her break-up with Sir Paul on a US talk show, it has been reported. The model could appear on CNN's Larry King Live, according to New York Post columnist Cindy Adams. She has already been on the legendary host's show several times, which has reportedly given him the edge in sealing a deal. Most recently Lady McCartney appeared on the programme with Sir Paul to debate Canada's seal cull with one of the nation's top politicians.

And did he disclose his past to her?
Originally Posted By wonderingalice Fe Maiden, I disagree and maintain that yes, she was obligated to tell him. A past including hard core porn is a deal breaker if it's a surprise. And Paul's past is VERY common knowledge. There are tons of books out there on him. wahooskipper... Not sure what you're saying...

Originally Posted By debtee I think this was all dredged up when Heather was marrying Paul in the Uk press. I'm sure I remember reading that she had appeared in some porn pics before her accident, so it's really old news to Paul I'm sure! Regardless of the state of her marriage ( I have no opinion either way )... I think she is a great animal rights activist and is helping fight China aginst the trade of dog and cat fur which gets my vote! If she gets money to tell her side of the story and uses that for animal rights then I don't care if people call her a gold digger!

Originally Posted By gadzuux Heather has always struck me as a bit of a social climber. In a way, she's a bit like Gloria Allred - another woman that grates on me. Yes, they both are doing laudable work, but it always seems designed to get them in the limelight, which is the ultimate goal. Now she's complaining that she could never get out of paul mccartney's shadow. And this comes as a surprise to her? She married one of the most famous and instantly recognizable people in the entire world, and gained quite a bit of recognition for herself in the process. It seems self-possessed to me that she would complain now about paul's fame. People say that the pressures of fame made their marriage difficult. I'm sure it made paul's marriage to linda difficult too, but somehow they managed through it. Paul's daughters HATE heather, and did from the very beginning, and I have to think that there's something to that. After all, they really know her, we don't. Word is that they didn't have a pre-nup. If true, this is her chance to either show some class, or expose herself as an opportunist. We'll see. Either way, she's already got what I suspect she was looking for - she's now "famous", but then again so are lots of people. Being famous doesn't always mean that you're respected. BTW - old joke ... What do you call a dog with wings?
Originally Posted By wonderingalice The 'joke' notwithstanding... (Linda put up with enough of the mean stuff when she was alive) ...Thanks gadzuux! Glad to see someone agrees with me on the Heather thing. (And I can't STAND Gloria Allred either... Why the heck did she give two hoots about where George Harrison REALLY was when he passed away? The folks who don't particularly care for the Beatles music... Your loss!
Originally Posted By Jim in Merced CA <---[raises hand] Also not a big Beatles fan. I do like 'Sgt.

That said, I really like Paul McCartney and Wings -- 'Band on the Run' 'Live and Let Die' 'Let em In' 'Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey' -- great stuff.
Originally Posted By wonderingalice Sheesh... *LOL* This wasn't a thread for thrashing my favorite band... It was a thread for thrashing the bad choice for second wife made by McCartney.
Originally Posted By gadzuux >> "Let `em in" ... great stuff. << Really! Someone's knockin' at the door Someone's ringin' the bell Open the door And let `em in. Almost as classic as - Michelle, my belle These are words that go together well My michelle I love you I love you I love you That's all I want to say 'Sir Paul' has a way with a tune, but his lyrics are completely devoid of any manner of depth or substance. And "let `em in" is one of the most glaring examples. I'm surprised at you. (eyeball rolls and tongue clucks for jim).
