HEATHER Mills is probably most notable for being the ex-wife of Sir Paul McCartney.
She’s been under the radar for a while but is back to talk about her latest project – VBites, a 100 per cent vegan company that even has cafes dotted round the country, so here’s a refresher on her…
They got married in June 2002 in County Monaghan in Ireland and had a daughter, Beatrice, a year later.
Heather and Sir Paul split in 2006 and what followed was an incredibly acrimonious divorce.
Heather represented herself in court and asked for £125m.
She received £24.3m plus payments of £35,000 a year for costs for their daughter.
How did Heather lose her leg?
When she was 25 Heather was knocked over by a police motorbike.
She suffered crushed ribs, a punctured lung and the loss of her leg six inches below her knee.
It is believed she earned £180,000 from selling her story to the press.
She used the money to set up The Heather Mills Trust, which provides prosthetic limbs for people who have lost limbs after stepping on landmines.
Is Heather Mills a vegan?
After her accident Heather went to the Hippocrates Health Institute in Florida where they put her on a raw food vegan diet.
She has been outspoken about how she believes it saved her life and helped her recovery – and saved her knee from being amputated too.
Heather has also gushed about how veganism gives her loads of energy and stops bloating – but has been criticised for claiming it can cure medical issues.
