She married a Beatle, lost a limb, and the tabloids never forgave her.
Life changed forever for Heather Mills when she lost part of her leg in a horror accident at the age of 25. The life of the former model, ex-wife of The Beatles star Paul McCartney, is being examined in The Trials of Heather Mills.
Editing
Brutal juxtaposition of archive footage vs. media coverage.
Writing
Reframes 'Paul's ex' into 'woman who survived everything.'
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Mills never actually watched most of her own tabloid coverage until filming; producers had to source clips from collector obsessives.
The 'Mucca' headlines (mocking 'Macca') represented peak 2000s British misogyny; this film arrives as culture re-evaluates that era's treatment of women.
