Comment:

With a little help from his friends, and his family, Paul McCartney put the pain of his divorce behind him when he recently opened an exhibition of photographs by his first wife Linda. Despite having to cough up over 25 million pounds to his ex-wife Heather Mills, the ex-Beatle is worth at least 400 million pounds according to the courts, although the London papers valued his fortune at closer to 500 million.

Calling his divorce a hard day's night is an understatement as far as McCartney is concerned. "It was like going through hell," he stated. "As Winston Churchill once said, 'If you're going through hell, keep going!' The only solution is to remain dignified. But I've a wonderful baby. She's a great joy to me, as are my elder children, so I'm a lucky man."

Just to show McCartney hasn't soured on all women after the messy divorce with the model turned landmine crusader, he is reportedly preparing to get hitched again. Besides that, he seems to have a crush on the Queen. "She's fun, she's cool, she's amazing," Mac said. "And she knows what fame is all about."

McCartney and the Queen - now That would be something.

Dipping into the racks of vinyl, I put together this musical path through Paul's second marriage. As usual there is a quiz where the first correct answer wins a copy of the mix, tracked and with artwork. Who is the lucky lady speculated to become the third wife of McCartney?

The answer to the quiz is Lily Allen. She'll be great for Macca. Great mix here, 4, 6 & 12 my picks..

Haha! I like it. There's a mashup rattling around in my iTunes somewhere, called "Paul & Heather." It's got "Paperback Writer" and "Move, Bitch, Get Out the Way" and a couple of other songs in it...Let me see if I can find it. Paul & Heather Mashup.<3 Sara

I've seen rumours in the British tabloids linking Macca to American actress Rosanna Arquette, American heiress Nancy Shevell, and English equestrienne Tanya Larrigan. Who knows?

njr has the answer with Nancy Shevell being the leader in the polls even though it has yet to be decided.

This is pretty great. It's funny that Rosanna has come up again, as she's traditionally been my fave-rave starl of all-time. That'd be very cool if she married my favorite musical figure of all-time.

Clearly you should send this mix to Paul and invite him to use it as raw material to finally make his own Plastic Ono Band (Plastic Mills Band?) record. Ecce Cor Meum indeed.
