A source said: "Paul hasn’t come to this decision lightly but felt things couldn’t carry on as they were.

Paul McCartney has taken a break from wife Heather - May 15, 2020
Sir Paul McCartney has taken a break from wife Heather because she treats him like a "doormat", it has been claimed. The legendary former Beatle is believed to have taken time out from his marriage after a row with the blonde, who he wed in 2002.
Last week, it was reported the pair had been staying apart, with the singer dividing his time between his country home and London, and Heather remaining at the couple’s house in Hove, near Brighton. A friend told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: "Heather has always been tough on Paul, basically walking all over him. Paul has put up with it because he’s a kind, gentle human being. "But something just snapped with Paul. He’s had enough of being treated like a doormat. He’s beaten up emotionally and just needed time out. So he just walked out."
Friends have denied claims the couple are having crisis talks. One insider is quoted by the News of the World newspaper as saying: "It’s very frosty. There hasn’t been any contact and they haven’t spoken for more than two weeks. "At the moment they are still living separate lives." McCartney was thought to be rejoining Heather when he flew back to the UK from France at the weekend (13.05.06) - but left by helicopter again a few hours later. A source told The People newspaper: "Who knows where he went today? There certainly didn’t appear to be much talking done."
Paul McCartney has gone on holiday alone - May 12, 2020
Sir Paul McCartney has gone on holiday alone - further fuelling speculation that his marriage is in trouble. The Beatles legend - who is married to model and animal rights activist Heather Mills - was spotted in the South of France taking a walk and relaxing with a drink on his own.
Yesterday (11.05.06) onlookers described the 63-year-old musician as looking "lost in his own thoughts" when he left his five-star hotel on the border of France and Monaco. McCartney’s solo holiday comes just 10 days after allegations of a bust-up with 37-year-old Mills, which reportedly resulted in the couple "cooling off" in separate homes, located 50 miles apart. Friends of the couple are claiming the time the two have spent apart is an indication there are experiencing marital problems.
A source told the Daily Mail newspaper: "They have been rowing constantly recently. "She is angry that he gets so much adulation from fans and is one of the most famous people on the planet, while she feels she should get just as much respect for being a model and a campaigner."

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.
Since the Beatles, Paul has released 21 albums and staged three world tours, while evolving into classical composition, film-making and actively campaigning for ecology and animal rights After the Beatles split up in 1970, Paul embarked on a solo career before forming the group Wings with his wife, American Linda McCartney, which had some success but never to the scale of the Beatles, That has never yet again been seen, (even now)
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.
In recognition of his work for all music, Paul was recently appointed Fellow of the Royal College of Music, the U.K.’s highest musical honour. Aside from his music, Paul McCartney campaigns for Greenpeace, Friends of The Earth and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. He and his wife Linda are the new patrons of the British Vegetarian Society. He is also the chief patron of The Liverpool Institute for the Performing Arts, a new school similar to New York’s High School of the Performing Arts, which will open in his hometown in 1996. Paul has also developed his interest in film-making. His first production, "Daumier’s Law," won the top prize in 1992 at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts awards.
His latest short feature, "Grateful Dead, A Photofilm," will be entered in the London Film Festival at the invitation of the British Film Institute. He was also knighted by the Queen and made a ’Sir’ Paul and Linda had three children between them as well as Linda daughter from a previous marriage, which Paul adopted as his own. Linda died of breast cancer in 1998, she was only 56.
All of their children are a success in their own right Stella McCartney is head designer at Gucci after a very successful stint as head designer for Chloe and daughter Mary is a successful photographer just as her mother Linda was before her.
Three years after the death of his first wife Paul met Heather Mills at a charity event where Mills was raising financial assistance for the Heather Mills Trust, a foundation providing artificial limbs to war victims across the globe. Mills, a former swimsuit model, lost her left leg below the knee in 1993 after being hit by a police motorcyclist.
