'God bless Heather Mills'

London - In a bizarre move, Heather Mills posted old messages of support from Hillary Clinton and Sir Richard Branson on her personal website.
The former model, who was awarded £24.3m in her divorce settlement from Sir Paul McCartney, made a desperate bid to salvage her tarnished reputation by re-launching her personal internet site with dated tributes to herself.
I was inspired
In one message, Hillary - who was bidding to become the next US President - praised Heather's charity work.
Hillary said: "God bless Heather Mills... for the person she is and the work she does for all of us.
"I have been inspired by her vital charity work."
However, the clip was filmed in 2002 - while Heather was still with The Beatles legend.
Heather also added video footage of British tycoon, Sir Richard Branson, who she described as another "friend" keen to "speak out" in support for her.
I would kill for her
Branson said, "Initially when you meet her you wonder whether she is too good to be true. Years and years later she has been completely consistent.
"I really do believe she is one hundred per cent genuine and I would kill for her."
Branson's tribute was believed to have been made almost a decade ago.
The 40-year-old, vegan campaigner - who removed all photos of Paul from the website - also added a personal message following her divorce settlement of March 17.
Heather, who had requested £125 million from Paul, said: "I am so happy and relieved that this divorce has finally been settled and I am delighted with the overall outcome as I feel as if a great weight has been lifted.
"Finally... I am looking forward to moving on with the rest of my life with Beatrice.
"This is not how Paul and I intended it to be, sadly though this was the outcome. I must move on now for my daughter, myself, and for those that want and need my help and support."
Her own worst enemy
Heather was branded "her own worst enemy" in her "underhand" divorce battle with Paul.
Justice Bennett, who presided over the divorce, said she had a "warped perception" and "indulged in make-believe" to build her case.
Meanwhile, Heather has been inundated with offers to reveal all about her four-year marriage to the legendary musician.
She was reportedly offered £1 million for an interview with America's OK! magazine, while a US TV network has also offered her £1 million for an exclusive interview featuring private photos and tape recordings of her and Paul.
She was believed to be in negotiations with US TV talk show hosts Oprah Winfrey and Larry King to appear on their shows.
Heather was also said to be in talks with a publisher to update her biography with a chapter on her divorce. - Bang Showbiz.com
