Mills furious over McCartney removing 10m artwork from her home

Former 'Beatle' Sir Paul McCartney's estranged wife, Heather Mills, got furious on Thursday night after she discovered that the former had removed priceless paintings from her home. When the 38-year old former model discovered that masterpieces worth 10-million dollars had been taken from her country retreat, she intimated cops about the same. She only found out that the paintings had been taken after a burglar alarm was set off following a change of codes in them. Mills had arrived at the lodge house on Sir Paul's sprawling estate in Peasmarsh, Sussex, with family and pals for the preparation of New Year's celebration.But she was shocked to know that the alarm codes had been changed, and immediately called her lawyers to brief them about the incident. Insiders have told that McCartney does not have the right of access to the lodge under their separation agreement.The former Beatle only told his estranged wife that he had taken the paintings last night after sending her a text message.He said that he took the artworks because he was concerned about security at the lodge.The missing paintings also included photos of Beatrice, the couple's daughter.
