Mills and Boon.
 
The fairy tale ends. After four years the offical separation of Heather Mills and Paul McCartney has been announced.

Will his children, who weren't all that keen on Ms. Mills marrying their father in the first place, be saying 'I told you so', and telling him he was a fool for not getting Ms. Mills to sign a pre-nup contract?

It's rumoured that she is after a divorce settlement of around £200 million pounds, which should see her singing 'Love Me Do' all the way to the bank.

Has anyone here ever drawn up a pre-nuptuial arrangement prior to their wedding, or is it the ultimate sign of being unromantic?

I feel sorry for Paul, because he and Linda seemed to be so happy and then to be so sadly parted by the hand of fate. I couldn't believe it when I heard he intended to marry again, I remember thinking that I hope he will be as happy with his new wife as he was with Linda, I'm sorry it has turned out for the worst.

The omens were never good. According to her unauthorised biography she used to leave her first husband to fly to Saudia Arabia to 'entertain' Arabs.

I read an interview recently saying that being married to the most famous man in the world was a pain in the arse. I'd argue that he probably isn't the most famous man in the world, and that she knew he was a high profile personality when she married him.

I bet he's kicking himself, and is hoping she doesn't take him for an arm and a leg if you'll excuse the pun.

Nope but should of lol!!! Although not even considering the prospect of ever going down the isle again but never say never [just in case i jinx meself] any pre nup would not only consider financial but also if ya cheat your balls will be cut off sort of thing too [soz guys:eek:]:D

Apparently Sir Paul has made a statement to the effect that she didn't marry him for his money. Er, you said it first, Paul - never, ever pre-empt the question. :D

Don't think pre-nups are valid in the UK. If they'd have been married in California it would have been binding.

A good sleazeball lawyer can get any pre-nup cancelled, the divorce law here in California states that what you bring into a marriage stays yours and only assets gained during the marriage are split down the middle. Each State has different rules.
useful tip The law may have changed, ,but it used to be the law that if a Brit got married overseas to a foreigner the marriage was invalid in the UK unless it was registered within 30 days at the local British embassy/ consulate in the country where the marriage took place, saved quite a few of my mates who didn't want to bring the local exotic beauty home to meet Mum .

He must have a bit of a sense of humour after choosing the youthful black he dyed his hair after marrying her.;)

I feel so sorry of Paul, when you are married and your wife dies, a wife you so obviously loved, it takes a lot of guts to get married again even if you have mega bucks, but if it doesn't work out then its best to call it a day. Its no use carrying on just to look good for the media, I'm sure paul and Heather will make sure that their youngster will not suffer, well lets hope so.

Re: Mills and Boon.
 
I have a friend who is getting married in July, her parents both died years ago and left her the house she has drew something up with her solicitor for him to sign to say he will never own the house etc... I suppose that is all she has left of her parents and just wants to protect her inheritence plus she has children from a previous relationship. But she obviousley thinks he would try and get the house off her hence the solicitor being involved, i know if i was in her situation i would wonder why i was marrying him!! Don't think she trusts him much.:Banane59:

Re: Mills and Boon.
 
A pre-nup way not be valid here but if it had been me I would have found a way to protect mine. His kids were not to keen on her so were they inheritance watching? Did his kids not want him to marry again out of selfishness because of their mother? Heather may not have had it easy as she wanted and found it hard to be accepted so what was the final straw then? Another example of how money is no gaurentee of happiness no mater how hard you try.

I, like most others, do not give a damn about the post-marital nuptials of some millionaire scouser and his one-legged gold-digging ex-wife. Once again, may I call upon the moderators/administrators to please open a section called "Rubbish", where threads such as this and the 'Big Brother House' nonsense can be dumped, safely away from civilised eyes such as mine.

One person's rubbish is another person's treasure Tealeaf. Whatever happened to tolerance?

Pre-nups are not binding on English courts, but they will be upheld by the court provided certain criteria are fulfilled. Each party must have independent legal advice. No pressure must be put upon either party by the other. It must be signed well in advance of the marriage. However, once there are children, pre-nups don't stick, unless the pre-up contains specific provisions.

I don't feel sorry for HM (as apparently her associates call her 'cos she thinks she's the Queen) - she knew what she was getting into, if you marry a high profile man, you can't complain later about his being famous.

Like that cutting edge thread you started in General Chat 'Sex toys for sale in Tescos'?:D

I have no doubt, Rindy, that you are on first name terms with Macca & "Hop-Scotch" Heather; however, that experiance is thankfully denied to most people who post on here. For the most part, those same people will do their shopping in the likes of ASDA or Tesco, and as such my question concerned whether or not they were prepared to encounter sex toys in the aisles. A very pertinent question I think, unlike this nonsense from a third-rate gossip column.

Although brought to attention through a celebrity couple, I did ask for comment if any one here has signed a pre-nup, or if they thought it was the last word in being an unromantic sod.

Weddings are still quite popular up here in our part of the world, hence it is topical, as can be seen by the people who did take the trouble to post constructive comments.

Unless you are in despeartely need of a dose of syrup of figs I forgive your churlishness and look forward to reading your next thread starter.:).

Do you seriously think that anyone around Accy has the funds available to hire legal council in order to draw up a pre-nup agreement? You really do need to get back to reality.

I don't know that's why I asked, but since there are quite a lot of properties in Hyndburn currently for sale priced over half a million quid I wouldn't be suprised. Plus I didn't know this forum was just for people in Accy, I was under the illusion we had posters as far away as Burnley, London and Australia.

Stop being so querulous, why don't you open up a little and share with the group?

Surely you must have had some old scrubbers after you in your time? They must have been after your money, as I can see little other attraction.:D
