HOLLYWOOD - Paul McCartney has reportedly told Heather Mills she will make nothing from their impending divorce--as he didn't earn any money during their four year marriage.
The former Beatle has issued his estranged wife's lawyers with the statement, and is hoping Mills will not fight the divorce in a courtroom--as he claims she would "end up with nothing."
McCartney, whose amassed fortune is rumored to be around $585 million, made his money before marrying Mills in 2002. He says he made a financial loss until 2006, after embarking on several world tours, according to British newspaper Daily Mirror.
British lawyer Caitlin Jenkins says, "It's a good tactic for Sir Paul--but also quite a high-risk strategy.
"Only about 10 percent of contested divorce cases go down this route.
"Sir Paul is trying to persuade Heather's team to advise her to come to an agreement--by suggesting she could end up with nothing if the divorce goes to court.
"In essence, Sir Paul is showing her how bad it could be for her."
