Mills claims to be '$3m in debt'

Heather Mills denies demanding a million dollar (pound) divorce settlement from her estranged husband Paul McCartney - despite being $3m (€2.2m) in debt.

The former glamour model, aged 39, is currently embroiled in a divorce battle with the former Beatle and, according to British newspaper reports, has asked for up to $200m (€144m).

But Mills denies pursuing McCartney for a large settlement even though she owes $3m (€2.2m) in legal fees.

She says: "I have been offered nothing. We go to court over our daughter. You have no idea. These figures are made up. How do you know I even want anything?

"I am UK£1.5m (€2,2m) in debt in lawyers fees. But I can't talk about that. I'm gagged at the moment, while the media are being fed spin by a certain corner."
