CNN is reporting that Paul McCartney’s ex Heather Mills will be taking home a lot less than she wanted from her former husband.

Judge Hugh Bennett awarded Mills, who represented herself, £24.3 million ($48.6 million), according to the court’s release.  She had sought an award of nearly £125 million ($251 million), the court said. McCartney had proposed £15.8 million ($31.6 million), it said.

The judgment included £35,000 ($70,000) a year for the couple’s 4-year-old daughter, Beatrice. Mills said she was unhappy with that amount because it isn’t enough for school tuition, private security, or first-class airfare.

Heather’s got cash now, but many believe her name will be forever sullied in the court of public opinion.
