“A London High Court judge granted Paul McCartney and Heather Mills a “decree nisi” Monday, bringing their marriage one step closer to a formal end, a court spokesman confirms to PEOPLE.
Under British divorce law, the decree nisi is essentially a preliminary divorce. The McCartneys now must wait six weeks and one day to receive a decree absolute, which ends the marriage completely.
Justice Hugh Bennett ended the couple’s marriage on grounds that they have been separated for two years. Neither McCartney, 65, nor Mills, 40, appeared in court.
The decree paves the way for Mills to receive her $48.6 million divorce settlement, which was granted in March. “
I’m sure that Heather Mills is happy about this. Not only because she will be arms-length at best to Sir Paul but also because she’s got her name into the media once again. That’s all this woman is about. Splashing herself across every page of the paper and soaking that man of his money is all she knows how to do. God bless this divorce! Please let it happen quickly!
