Piers Morgan regrets introducing Sir Paul to Heather Mills


Former tabloid editor and current judge of “America’s Got Talent” Piers Morgan appeared on the Howard Stern radio show yesterday. Among his many topics of conversation was the fact that Morgan is the man responsible for introducing Sir Paul McCartney to the now-infamous Heather Mills. The rest, as they say, was history- in the form of one of the highest divorce settlement payments in U.K. history. Way to go, Piers!

Piers Morgan publicly apologized for introducing Paul McCartney to Heather Mills at a charity event. “Paul asked who she was after seeing her give a speech. I introduced them. I’m not sure if Paul knew that she was missing a leg at the time. I never thought in my wildest of dreams that Mills would turn out to be a grasping, gold-digging little bimbo.”

“I was fooled into thinking that she was a good person. She ended up costing Paul 50 million dollars,” he said, laughing. He added that Heather was “so daft,” she couldn’t even understand why people liked Paul more than her: “I told her, ‘Well, on one hand, you’ve got the guy who wrote ‘Yesterday’ and ‘Hey Jude.’ On the other, there’s you, a gold-digging…”

Piers also added that he has repeatedly apologized to Paul, who told him there was “nothing to apologize for.” Paul’s daughter Stella, according to Piers, went up to him later and asked him, “Why? Why our family?” He said that Britain was glad to be rid of Mills and called her “The most hated woman in Britain. Now you can have her, New York!”

Piers Morgan is shown below at the Glamour Women of the Year Awards on 6/3/08. Heather Mills and Paul McCartney are shown in the header on 4/19/01, thanks to WENN.

    Love the Beatles and Paul. He should have listened to his daughter Stella.

    You can take a horse to water but you can’t make them drink. You’re off the hook, Piers. Heather would have found a way to Paul’s millions with or without your help.

  3. devilgirl says:

    Piers may have introduced them, but Paul ultimately made the choice to take up with the slag. I know from experience, no matter how many people warn you about someone you are dating being bad for you, you are still going to do what you want regardless of the warnings.

    Piers get over yourself, I like you but you are not as important as you think you are. That said, HOW COULD YOU! I do not cry for Sir Paul but for us the innocent public who have had to endure her for these last three years. Bad Karma on you Piers. 👿

  5. Leandra says:

    He had the money-ho in his mind so would have found a way to meet her regardless of an introduction that day. The not so bright one was Paul for not getting a pre-nup. Funny, because just looking at her, you can get a pretty good vibe as to what kind of person she is. Since Paul’s daughter saw it right off, makes you wonder if women have a special radar for that sort of thing.

    it reminds me of the story paul told stern about how yoko was a groupie trying to get in pauls pants & as a joke they sent her to johns hotel room but the joke turned on them when john hooked up with her for good…thats karma

    Everyone thinks Heather is so awful (and she is), but Paul was pretty stupid for being blinded by her. Everything about her is so OBVIOUS! Sure, maybe he missed the fact that she was after his fame and money, but how he couldn’t see that she’s crude, crass, common and potty-mouthed is beyond me. Linda McCartney was so soft-spoken, kind, intellectual and friendly. Heather is her exact opposite (which I guess might have been the initial attraction). Worst of all, though, is how he didn’t listen to his children when they tried to dissuade him from staying with Heather. I agree with devilgirl that people can be blinded by love and not listen when their friends tell them they’re making a mistake… But I’m still blown away by Paul’s stupidity.

    Yoko and John met in an art gallery as she was showing some pieces she had done…..

  9. oxa says:

    Mucca Mills is a total nutter that thinks she should be treated like royalty cos she screwed a Beatle.
    Off with her head.

  10. Ron says:

    He really should apologize to the world. Now the rest of us are forced to hear the bitchings of this shrew.

  11. Rianna says:

    it wasnt piers fault. paul made the choice. stella needs to shut up. shes just cranky cause the bitch stole 50 million of her inheritance when the old man passes on.

  12. janepitt says:

    Paul is a dirty old man. He deserved whatever Heather did to him. Stella is a rabid freaking dog, with no talent for design.

  13. linda says:

    He has a beautiful daughter so maybe it was meant to be. That said, the rest of us must now endure the OLGDB as she is moving to the USA (N.Y.)!

  14. Judy says:

    I am just happy she settled in NY and not in CA. We have enough gold digging freaks.

  15. Roxanne says:

    Poor Paul, but at least he learned his lesson. As for Heather, good luck in New york.
