Heather Mills‘ sister Fiona Mills has revealed that Heather has received threats against her daughter Beatrice as well as herself.

In a message posted on Heather’s website yesterday, Fiona explained that Heather has received the death threats against the three year old but that Beatrice’s father, Paul McCartney, still won’t increase security measures for his estranged wife: “The vicious agenda of these tabloids has resulted in death threats to my family and as her husband is not concerned enough to help I will at least try to do something.”

“Heather and Beatrice no longer receive the protection that would be afforded to any other member of the McCartney family facing such threats.”

She went on to deny claims that Heather is a gold-digger and it’s “absolutely disgusting” that people would believe Heather would give up custody of Beatrice in exchange for more money.

Heather’s legal team at Mishcon de Reya are reportedly “furious” with Fiona’s posting as both Heather and Paul have been ordered to stay silent about the divorce proceedings. The message was taken down after a few hours but then reappeared with after being redrafted to remove the insinuation that Paul was not concerned.
