Paul McCartney’s divorce could cost him a quarter of his multimillion pound fortune. The former Beatle announced on Wednesday (17.05.06) that he was separating from his wife of four year, Heather Mills - blaming media intrusion.

In a statement on his website - paulmccartney.com - the ’I Want To Hold Your Hand’ singer vehemently denied the former model was only after his cash, writing: "It’s been suggested that she married me for the money. There is not an ounce of truth in this. "She is a very generous person who spends most of her time trying to help others in greater need than herself. He fumed: "All the work she does is unpaid so these stories are ridiculous and completely unfounded. I’m very sad to see that some insensitive people would choose a moment like this to spread these vicious rumours."

Stephen Foster from high profile divorce lawyers Stewarts Solicitors is quoted as saying: "He famously didn’t sign a pre-nup as he said it was unromantic. If they don’t resolve things amicably, that could be a very expensive decision." McCartney and Mills - who have a two-year-old daughter, Beatrice - met in 1999 at a charity event, a year after the death of his first wife, Linda.

He concluded: "We hope, for the sake of our baby daughter that we will be given some space and time to get through this difficult period."

At the age of 15 he met John Lennon. Together with George Harrison and Ringo Starr, they formed the most successful group in the history of music--the Beatles.

His solo period during the eighties culminated with charity performances at Live Aid and for The Prince of Wales Trust, leading him to get back on the road again. Since 1990, Paul McCartney has traveled over 800,000 miles in concert through 22 countries, setting, along the way, the Guinness world record for the largest stadium crowd in the history of rock and roll--184,000 in Rio de Janeiro. During the same time, he also established the "MTV Unplugged" vogue and then performed his acoustic show in clubs and pubs around Europe.

In 1991, Paul staged the performance of his first classical work, "The Liverpool Oratorio", which has since been performed in more than 50 cities worldwide. In 1995--the 30th anniversary of his most acclaimed song, "Yesterday"-- Paul’s second classical work, "A Leaf," was performed at a benefit concert he organized for the Royal College of Music at St. James Palace. Paul composed a major orchestral work, commissioned to mark the 100th anniversary of EMI Records.
