The 90-minute TV special sees Heather Mills’ friend Pamela Cockerill open up about the early days of Heather’s marriage with Paul and how their divorce caused a media storm, according to Liverpoolworld.
Pamela revealed that Heather found it difficult living in Paul’s Rye home in East Sussex - which he bought with his first wife Linda in 1973.
The home was decorated with plaques and photos dedicated to Linda, who died of breast cancer in 1998.
Pamela said: “I think Heather found it quite hard to live in the same house that, only a couple of years before, Linda had been living in, and the house hadn’t been changed that much. Linda was an inescapable presence because obviously, she was a big part of Paul’s life.
“There were little plaques saying ‘I love Linda’ over the doorways and photos of her around. It must have been very hard to deal with.”
It is also claimed that Paul and Heather’s relationship was “volatile from the beginning” as both were strong characters.
Pamela explained: “They were such strong characters.
“They were both used to having their own way. Before they got married, there was a big row in a hotel room in America, and [Heather’s] engagement ring got thrown out of the window.
“I don’t know who flung it out, but the next day, the staff were all going around with metal detectors, and they recovered the ring.”
The couple announced they were having a child in May 2003, and Heather gave birth to Beatrice Milly McCartney on 28 October 2003. Beatrice is the spitting image of Paul
They separated three years later, on 17 May 2006, and their divorce was finalised in 2008, with Heather Mills receiving £23 million in cash and assets.
Mary McCartney and (stepmom) Nancy at the Linda's exhibit at the University of Arizona
Mary Mccartney: "Went to see mum’s exhibition at The University of Arizona, it is open to the public - free access, no need to book ahead.
"What a wonderful experience, made all the more special as mum would often tell me her time spent in Arizona in the early 1960s is when she found herself artistically as a photographer. Not that I needed reminding, but she really was a soulful and brilliantly artistic woman X Mary."
The exhibition, which includes nearly 200 pieces spanning McCartney's 30-year, barrier-breaking career, runs through Aug. 5. The collection features photos of music icons including The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix and Aretha Franklin, as well as images of McCartney's domestic life in London and Tucson, giving viewers a look at some of her most intimate relationships.
The grand opening event kicks off a semester full of programming designed to engage the community with the exhibition and themes and causes that were important to McCartney throughout her life, including creative arts, sustainability and animal rights.
