Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Divorce, Legal Issues

Come next week, Heather Mills will not just be the most-hated women in Britain, she’ll also be one of the wealthiest.

According to UK’s Daily Mail, there may finally be an end to the Paul McCartney-Heather Mills divorce saga.  The two, who announced their separation back in May 2006, have been negotiating in court over the past week.  The Beatle and the Dancing with the Stars contender were married back in June 2002.

The Mail claims Mills is expected to receive a $110 million settlement.  That figure is based on $40 million lump sum for her, and approximately $5 million per year for the McCartney heir up until the age of 18.  (Beatrice is currently 4-years-old.)  Stella’s half-sis will also have a $2 million trust waiting for her when she comes of age.  In all, Mills will be raking in approximately $27.5 million for each year she was married to the music legend.
