Macca marriage over

The ill-fated marriage of former Beatle Paul McCartney and his estranged wife Heather Mills has come to a formal end during a 30-second hearing at London's High Court.Justice Hugh Bennett said the petition for divorce by Mills was granted on the grounds that the couple had lived apart for two years. Neither McCartney nor Mills were in court. The brief hearing contrasted with the protracted fight over the divorce settlement earlier this year.McCartney married the former model and charity campaigner in 2002, four years after his first wife Linda died of breast cancer. They have a daughter, Beatrice.
