Heather Mills accused of lying about peerage offer

New ITV documentary exposes ex Mrs McCartney as a liar

Heather Mills has been accused of lying about being offered a peerage.

Sunday Times journalist Jasper Gerard claims the model told him 7 years ago that she was offered the title Baroness Mills and had been asked to sit in the House of Lords. She said it was part of a Government-backed initiative and she had the support of a Lord Macdonald.

But in an ITV1 documentary - McCartney VS McCartney: The Ex Files – all three Labour Lords with the name Macdonald deny the claims. None even recalls ever meeting Heather, 40.

Jasper says he’s not surprised that the Lords have rubbished her assertions. ‘I was pretty gobsmacked that somebody who was essentially a model and a part-time campaigner best known for being Paul McCartney’s girlfriend should be offered a peerage,’ he tells The Sun.

Meanwhile, Heather features in a new computer game that re-enacts how she drenched Sir Paul McCartney’s lawyer Fiona Shackleton, 51, last week.

In Mucca Chucka, players control a cartoon version of Heather in a virtual courtroom as she tries to throw a glass of water at the bench, reports the Daily Star.

Heather was awarded £24.3m in her divorce settlement with Sir Paul, 65, at the High Court.

McCartney VS McCartney: The Ex Files airs on ITV1 tonight at 10.30.
