Barbara Walter’s negative comments about Heather Mills on Monday’s The View took on some considerable weight today. In the episode, Ms. Walters called Paul McCartney’s ex-wife “so impossible” and “not a very nice woman.”

As it happens, Mr. McCartney’s new lover, Nancy Shevell, is Ms. Walters’ kin. Cousins, in fact. During the said episode, the venerable newswoman’s also said that when she interviewed Mr. McCartney’s now-ex-wife, she was “extremely difficult.”

In a statement given to the Huffington Post, Ms. Walters’ publicist, Cindi Berger, explains:

Apparently, it’s not the fear of being alone and without the $100 million divorce settlement—money she turned down because of its attendant gag order—that bothers Ms. Mills, it’s the relentless media coverage she’s garnered since the duo took a trip to Splitsville. At least she knows better than to do something like go on the Today show...oh...nevermind.
