Sir Paul McCartney has finally spoken about his split from Heather Mills, insisting their divorce battle left him in a "dark place."
McCartney and Mills parted ways in May 2006 after four years of marriage, and their subsequent divorce turned nasty with Mills falsely accusing the star of being an abusive husband and a drunk.
The judge overseeing the case awarded Mills a $36.3 million settlement but later slammed her evidence as "unreliable" and accused the 40-year-old of indulging in "make-believe."
The former Beatle insists he has maintained a "dignified" silence about the end of his marriage, but has now spoken about his decision to keep his emotions private.
He says, "I've been through a dark place. I am a man who needs love. Every man needs love, guys like romance. I do anyway.
"Things don't always work out but I like the idea of being dignified. I don't think it helps to mouth off all the time."
The former couple share a 4-year-old daughter, Beatrice. McCartney is now dating American socialite Nancy Shevell.
