London - Paul McCartney and his wife Heather Mills are planning to separate after nearly five years of marriage, a newspaper report said on Wednesday.
Representatives of the couple declined to comment but said a statement was expected later in the day.
The Daily Mirror quoted an unidentified source as saying: "Paul hasn't come to this decision lightly, but felt things couldn't carry on as they were."
The Outside Organisation, which represents the former Beatle, and Anya Noakes, who represents Mills, both declined to comment but both said a statement was being prepared.
The couple married at an Irish castle in June 2001. They have a daughter together, while McCartney has three adult children from his marriage to his first wife, Linda, who died of cancer in 1998.
