Mills 'can't afford' US move

Paul McCartney's estranged wife Heather Mills has denied she is currently house-hunting in New York - insisting she doesn't have enough money to buy a home there.

The former glamour model won a £25m divorce settlement from the former Beatle last month (Mar08) and has since spent time in the US judging the Miss USA beauty pageant - fitting in a visit to the Big Apple during the same trip.

And Mills was reported to be viewing properties in the prestigious Greenwich Village area of the city.

But now the 40-year-old's representative Michelle Elyzabeth has hit back at the rumours - declaring that Mills can't afford a New York home.

She says: "She doesn't have that much money. It's a lot of money to a regular person, but once you want to start supporting good causes, that money goes really quick."
