Mills never happy with Paul, say reports

Heather Mills was never happy in her marriage to Sir Paul McCartney, according to friends of the couple.

Sources revealed to the Daily Mail that the relationship had always suffered from differences in age, temperament and ambition.

"Oh God, he's such a boring old fart!" Mills is reported to have said at one point.

"Heather complained about her marriage quite a lot," a friend told the paper. "Her tone, when she talked about him, was exasperated, and kind of superior. She would groan: 'Oh, Paul does this' and 'Oh, he's that'."

Mills was apparently angered by McCartney's reluctance to embrace a socialite lifestyle.

The source explained: "Heather complained to me, 'Paul has not got any friends. He doesn't trust anyone because he's a former Beatle. He thinks everyone wants to take him for a ride because he is Paul McCartney. He is really anti-social. The only thing he ever does is occasionally go to the pub with his roadie. We never have parties or do fun things.'

"Heather realised Paul had lived in his own little world with Linda, spending every single day together and smoking a lot of dope. Heather didn't want that because she said it wasn't healthy. But Paul did want her to be like that — although she had things to do, places to be, people to see. It was an irritant to him."
