Heather
Mills
is
set
to
appear
on
US
TV
talent
show
'Dancing
With
The
Stars'.
Heather,
who
had
her
left
leg
amputated
below
the
knee
after
being
hit
by
a
motorbike
in
1993,
will
be
learning
to
salsa
and
cha-cha
later
this
year
and
plans
to
donate
her
appearance
fee
to
animal
charity
Viva.
A
source
told
Britain's
Daily
Express
newspaper:
"Some
may
think
this
is
a
surprising
way
for
Heather
to
raise
her
profile
in
the
US
but
she
has
never
been
stifled
by
her
disability.
"She
is
a
great
skier
and
a
superb
dancer."
The 39-year-old former model has always promoted an active life for amputees and memorably removed her prosthetic leg before showing it to talk show host Larry King during an interview in 2002. The source added: "Heather is keen to build a TV career in the US. The fact she apparently feels she can do the show despite her false leg is bound to create sympathy and headlines." Meanwhile, her estranged husband Sir Paul McCartney is also set to appear on a hit US TV show. The Beatles legend has reportedly been approached by 'American Idol' bosses to appear as a guest judge on the talent show. Last week, it was reported Paul had offered Heather a £25 million divorce settlement.
The 64-year-old - worth an estimated £825 million - is said to have instructed lawyers to make the offer in a bid to avoid a public court battle.
