Heather Mills has used her website to defend herself from what she calls the "character assassination" that she has been subject to since announcing her split from Paul McCartney, and in particular to deny reports that the judge hearing the McCartney's divorce proceedings has thrown out some of Heather's allegations against her soon to be ex-husband.
Mills quote goes thus: "Since the breakdown of the marriage there has been a significant amount of misreporting in the press, including this morning's report in The Sun of yesterday's hearing before Justice Bennett. The parties both ask the media please to respect their privacy and the confidentiality of the proceedings, as they work to settle the outstanding issues between them in their divorce."
Meanwhile the editor of her website provides the Wikipedia definition of 'character assassination', though doesn't supply a definition for 'irritating whiney gold digger', not that such a definition would have any relevance to Ms Mills. Oh dear, have I just committed character assassination? Hey, she's right, we are doing it. Ah well.
