When Heather Mills appeared on GMTV in autumn 2007, she claimed to have had worse press than a paedophile or murderer. Her outburst gave the appearance of someone on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

The media have termed her a fantasist, a publicity seeker and a gold-digger. But what is the truth about Heather and why does she behave the way she does? Is she severely misunderstood, or is she being slowly driven to the edge by media intrusion into her life? Jacques Peretti tries to separate fact from fiction and find out the truth behind the headlines.

Jacques followed Heather's story for months in the run-up to her divorce hearing and interviewed many of those connected to her. This programme includes the first television interview with Heather's father, Mark Mills, and the with ghost writer of her autobiography Out on a Limb, Pamela Cockerill.
