London - Heather Mills is rumoured to be dating renowned sculptor David Shilling.
The charity campaigner, who is the estranged wife of Beatle's legend Sir Paul McCartney, accompanied the former hat-maker to the opening of Fernando Botero's new exhibition at Monaco's Marlborough Gallery last week.
A source told the New York Post newspaper: "They looked very cosy and he only had eyes for her. He was showing her off and even introduced her to Prince Albert II who was also a guest at the party."
The 39-year-old former model - who lost her left leg below the knee in a motorcycle accident in 1993 - was also overheard telling fellow guests she was a trained musician who played the oboe.
Shilling, 51, is famous for once joking: "I love women to look beautiful and could never let a woman walk out of my shop wearing a hat that I didn't think suited her."
While in Monaco Heather also attended The Seven Deadly Sins, a play co-written and produced by her friend Mark Sinden.
Heather's representative, Michele Elyzabeth, is yet to comment on romance rumours.
Heather is currently embroiled in a bitter divorce battle with Paul.
The former model is said to have demanded a substantial sum of money from the music legend, with reports ranging from £50m to £100m.
The couple have a four-year-old daughter Beatrice. - Bang Showbiz.com
