HEATHER MILLS FREE AS A BIRD

Heather Mills claims she's ''having a great time'' and is enjoying her freedom since divorcing from Sir Paul McCartney.

Heather Mills loves the freedom she is now enjoying since her divorce from Sir Paul McCartney.

The former model - who secured a £24.3 million pay out when she legally separated from the former Beatle in March 2008 - says her life has changed for the better since the high-profile split.

When asked how she is feeling, Heather replied: "I'm really having a great time, totally. Great freedom!"

Earlier this year, Heather - who has a five-year-old daughter, Beatrice, with Paul - claims she gets asked out "all the time".

The 41-year-old blonde - who lost her left leg below the knee when she was hit by a police motorcycle in 1993 - insists her friends are always astonished by the amount of attention she receives from the opposite sex.

Heather, who is reportedly dating her former personal trainer Jamie Walker, said: "I've got so many stunning girlfriends who can't get a boyfriend. But when I go out, I get asked out all the time, and my girlfriends - who are better looking than me - say, 'How the hell does that happen?!' Maybe it's because I'm comfortable with myself."
