Sir Paul McCartney has revealed that his split from Heather Mills has allowed him to spend more time with his children.

The former Beatle has enjoyed the time he has been able to dedicate to his kids since the couple parted ways, although he admits that it is one of the few positives he has been able to find in the situation.

McCartney added that his family was the most important thing to him, and their support is invaluable to him at the current stage: "I'm going through great struggles, but I'm feeling pretty good. I have a lot of good support, particularly from my family. In difficult moments like this, it's when a loving family shines through. There is a tunnel and there is a light and I will get there. In the meantime I really enjoy my work and my family. I see people worse off than me, so I can put it in perspective."
