Sir Paul McCartney's ex-wife Heather Mills locked in row with train passenger over her prosthetic leg
HEATHER Mills found herself locked in a row with a train passenger over her prosthetic leg. The businesswoman and former model, 57, was married to Beatles legend Paul McCartney from 2002 to 2008. 3 Heather told how she clashed with a fellow train passenger - who didn't realise that one of her legs is prosthetic. She said: "This is for everyone who travels on a train and is getting annoyed because of a tall leggy blonde who's having to stretch her leg out. "The reason for this is because you can't pull your leg right in because the underneath of the prosthetic cuts into the back of the leg. "So just think twice before you turn your nose up." Continuing, Heather said she "had a moany man" who had asked her to move her leg. She added: "I tried to explain and he wouldn't listen. "So I took my leg off - and he shut up." Heather spoke directly to the camera in her social media clip - which was recorded last weekend. Heather met Sir Paul McCartney at an awards ceremony in 1999. The pair appeared publicly together on her 32nd birthday and he proposed to her in July 2001.
