Eight months ago they were engaged in an all-out bitter war of accusations but now Paul McCartney and Heather Mills are reportedly planning a US holiday together.

A year after they separated, Paul and Heather are planning a vacation together, with daughter Beatrice, at Paul’s home in the Hamptons, New York.

A source told the News of the World the couple see the break as “family bonding time”: “Incredible as it may seem the idea looks like a goer.”

“It won’t be a conventional family holiday, there’s still tension.”

“But if they go to Macca’s Hamptons mansion in New York, as they’re thinking, they’ll be away from prying eyes and pretty much on neutral ground.”
