Heather Mills denies comparing herself to Kate McCann

Heather Mills, the estranged wife of 'Beatles' star Paul McCartney, reportedly slammed the phone down during a radio interview when she was questioned about her recent media outbursts.

39-year-old Heather, a former model & animal rights activist was promoting veganism and animal campaign group Viva! on London radio station LBC, but Heather lost her cool when she was quizzed about her recent rant on Britain's GMTV - where she compared herself to Kate McCann, the mother of missing toddler Madeline.

'No that's rubbish,' Heather said. 'What a complete lie. I'm not getting dragged into that.

'I've never ever said that. And you're making it up. Like you make a lot of things up.

'Do you want to talk about the subject or do you want to say goodbye now before I fall asleep?'

As the show's outspoken presenter, Nick Ferrari started quizzing Mills about being ditched by her divorce lawyers, Heather hung up. She denies she was dropped by topnotch law firm Mishcon de Reya.

Heather has insisted that she hates being in the public eye - but has posed in a tight-fitting frock for Viva! to highlight how the meat and dairy industry is causing global warming.
