Heather Mills has denied claims that she and husband Paul McCartney are splitting up.

The reaction comes after reports that the couple were living in separate houses due to a bust up late last week.

Mills claimed that whilst the pair were living in separate houses temporarily it was because she wanted to avoid being pictured in a wheelchair, after having surgery to reattach muscle tissue in her leg.

After rubbishing the claims, she said: "It's hilarious. We're still very much together."
