Mills claims McCartney abuse in court papers

According to the Daily Mail, court papers filed for Heather Mills McCartney allege violent abuse and drug use by Paul McCartney, which he reportedly denies.

According to the Daily Mail, court papers filed on behalf of Heather Mills McCartney allege that estranged husband Paul McCartney subjected her to violent abuse, as well as using illegal drugs. The former Beatle's lawyers have declined to comment on the leak, but, according to the tabloid, Macca is said to have strenuously denied the claims, and plans to contest them in court.

The legal documents, it's claimed, detail the extent of the alleged violence, including an incident in which Mills claims to have been injured by a broken wine glass. Lawyers for the former model said they would "not comment on leaked or allegedly leaked documents" but added: "Lady Heather Mills McCartney stands by everything that has been filed at court on her behalf and intends to prove its truth in due course, should this be necessary. We would ask that the parties' privacy, during what is a difficult and emotional time, is respected."

Yeah, good luck on the privacy thing.
