Paul McCartney: 'Divorce Is Like Going Through Hell'

Sir Paul McCartney has compared his bitter divorce with Heather Mills to “going through hell.”

The Beatles legend said that the whole process is “very painful”, but he’s trying to keep his silence and dignity in tact.

He told the Radio Times: "As Winston Churchill once said, 'If you're going through hell, keep going!'

"The only solution is to remain dignified. If I don't keep a silence about it, I lose this idea of being dignified."

But the 65-year-old says he’s managing to find some solace through his music, adding: "It's been a difficult time, but music is a great healer.

"Music is the therapy for me. In fact, going through difficulties has only concentrated my desire to make good music."
