Mills's dad denies abuse claims

London - Heather Mills' father has released a series of home movies to disprove her claims she suffered an abusive childhood.
Mark Mills - who Heather has claimed is a "schizo" who viciously beat her - vehemently denies her accusations, and has revealed footage of his daughter playing happily on a family holiday to Wales.
Mark - who has trouble speaking after a stroke - told Channel 4 documentary Heather Mills: What Really Happened: "There was no violence. I'm convinced."
The 64-year-old has not seen Heather for 20 years, and insists her tales of living in fear of his violent temper are a complete fantasy.
The documentary also features Heather's former friend claiming they used to act out lesbian romps for up to £10 000 a time.
Denise Hewitt says the pair worked in a gang of girls who were "passed round" among rich men, and had "full on sex" with their customers.
She said: "We went in to high-class prostitution behind closed doors. It was usually girly-girly scenes because 99.9% of men like a girly-girly scene."
Denise claims their clients included powerful Australian magnate Kerry Packer and a Saudi prince.
She also said Heather was desperate to marry now ex-husband Sir Paul McCartney.
Denise said: "She said, 'I'll give him an ultimatum and if he doesn't marry me within say, eight months, 10 months, I'm going to leave him.' "
Last month, Heather was awarded £24.3m in her divorce settlement with The Beatles legend.
The revelations will be aired in the UK on Channel 4 at 22:00 on Tuesday. - Bang Showbiz.com
