Heather Mills: 'McCartney Knew I Was At Suicide Point'....

Heather Mills has continued her bitter tirade against Sir Paul McCartney, blaming her estranged husband for failing to help her when she began contemplating suicide.The glamour model-turned-activist snapped during an appearance on U.K. show Gmtv on Wednesday (31Oct07), where she admitted she had considered killing herself following the breakdown of their four-year marriage in May 2006.And Mills followed up her headline-grabbing rant with a series of angry interviews in America on Thursday (01Nov07).During an appearance on the Today programme, the 39-year-old slammed McCartney for failing to defend her from the "hate campaign" the British press had launched against her.And she claims the Yesterday singer continued to do nothing despite being aware of her suicidal tendencies.She says, "I have pleaded, I have begged. He knows I was at a suicide point and still nothing has been done."The warring couple - who are parents to four-year-old daughter Beatrice - are currently in negotiations to thrash out a divorce settlement.Meanwhile Mills has failed to fulfil her promise of suing a British tabloid over allegations she was a high-class prostitute - because she forgot to file the legal papers in time.

In June 2006, Sir Paul McCartney's estranged wife was accused by a Sunday newspaper of sleeping with wealthy Arabs for cash during her time as a glamour model - allegations Mills has always denied.

The 39-year-old vowed to fight the claims by suing for defamation, but missed the 12 June (07) deadline to go through with the legal action because of her ongoing divorce battle with the former Beatle.

A friend tells British newspaper the Daily Star, "She's had a lot on her plate."
