Any hope that Heather Mills might quietly disappear were scotched today when it turned out that the professional fantasist had added video comments to her website from Hillary Clinton and Sir Richard Branson purporting to support her in the aftermath of her divorce case.
“I just thank Heather Mills for the person she is and the work she does for all of us,” gushed Clinton. “God bless Heather.” Only thing is … Clinton’s comment was made in 2002 and Branson’s predates that, and a spokesman was quick to point out that he only knew her “through Paul”.
Perhaps the best summary of the whole sad saga comes from the excellent Jan Moir in the Daily Telegraph.
Heather’s spewing mental ugliness and vaunting self-interest have become a part of our cultural landscape over the past year or so. In the background, the great, empty prairie of her delusion stretches to the horizon and beyond.
Mills is the kind of person who seems to see conspiracy in every shadow, cowardice in the actions of others and only eternal, selfless heroism in herself. Now that she has lost, she is at pains to explain that she did not embark on this course of legal action for herself. Perish the thought!
One gets the impression that some people, such as Mills and Paul Burrell, see English courts as some kind of publicity appearance to be manipulated and exploited. In failing to understand the gravity of justice or the full power of the law, they deserve their humiliated fates.
St Heather of the Downtrodden would be funny if she were not quite so toxic, and is particularly odious when continually citing her “charity” work as a justification for everything she does and says.
As Heather apparently sees it, she should be the Britannia on our coins, the vegetarian flame of justice, the tireless campaigner for good deeds in dark corners.
Since the day she met Sir Paul McCartney, she has carefully camouflaged her own ambition with altruism, but if she is still fooling anyone, it can only be herself.
Meanwhile, despite his divorce court victory and occasional thumbs aloft smiles to the cameras, McCartney has the emotionally scalded demeanour of a man who has been shackled to a runaway hyena for years, and only just managed to escape with his life.

Really? 8 suspensions each. Yet, who consistently gets shorter suspensions for doing similar or in this case IDENTICAL acts of thuggery. The comparison is completely valid. The name on the jersey is the only real difference and Simon gets nailed with t…
