MACCA: WAR IS OVER!

By Rav Singh & Emma Donnan

ROCK legend Sir Paul McCartney has offered Heather Mills a £40 million divorce deal to buy her silence, the News of the World can reveal.
He will pay the money over 20 years and in return she must keep quiet about what went wrong in their marriage for the rest of his life.
Macca, 64, who is worth about £825 million, came up with the deal as the mud-slinging between the pair eased.
A source close to the couple said: "They are thrashing out a deal which would amount to between £30 million and £40 million over 20 years and there will be strict conditions.
"Heather must reveal nothing about their personal lives... no books, no TV specials.
"She has one hell of a story and Paul wants a settlement to make sure it never comes out.
"Heather has no intention of telling it because she knows it would only hurt their daughter Bea, but it would always be lurking in the background.
"Any breach of the conditions would allow him to stop the payments — so basically he has control of Heather for the rest of his life.
"There's a long way to go but it looks like that will form the basis of the settlement."
Shocked
The pair, who met in 1999 and married three years later, have been locked in a bitter divorce battle since splitting in May.
But we can reveal they got together three days ago at his Peasmarsh estate in East Sussex.
The source continued: "Heather was with Bea on Thursday and Macca just turned up unannounced. She was shocked because usually she has to leave in advance.
"They were talking and getting on — and that's a far cry from recent months when they haven't been able to be in the same room together.
"This isn't the beginning of a reunion. But they are realising they can have a reasonable relationship and can talk as friends."
The News of the World can also reveal there was no ‘peace summit' in the Hamptons near New York two weeks ago.
Heather, 38—dubbed Lady Mucca because of her porn past — was staying at Celebrity Big Brother star Dennis Rodman's estate while Macca was at his place nearby.
The source went on: "They simply saw each other most days to hand over Bea.
"Time is a great healer. When they split up initially Paul wouldn't have anything to do with Heather. He wanted her totally frozen out.
"But his anger is dying down. He doesn't hate her. In fact, he quite likes her and enjoys her company. He also realises she's the mother of his daughter — and a good one at that — and she's the woman who he once fell madly in love with.
Talk
"I don't think there is a chance that they will get back together but the war is over.
"They have reached a new stage in their relationship where they can talk, be around each other and co-operate in the best way for Bea. It's a huge relief for both of them."
A source close to Macca, who is planning a world tour next year, said: "He really hopes this latest move will see the end of it and give them both a chance to get on with their lives."
