Should one single male gene stop you from marrying him?

In a recent report, it shows that to find out if you man is marriage material, you just need to look into his genes, that’s genes, not jeans! Or at least this is what women are encouraged to think after a new study on genes linked to arginine vasopressin - a hormone that’s found in mammals, helps bodies retain water, and has been linked to mate stability in prairie voles.

It turns out by looking into the report of Swedish men’s DNA, next to the gene responsible for vasopressin sensitivity and much more prone to having problems in their marriage, plus its less likely if they get married to start with, than those without the variations.

It seems from this research the media rushed into writing about the “divorce Gene” saying if a man had one or another type of gene it would determine he would make a good husband.

Although there is a strong link between a gene and a social outcome, but we must remember the gene is only slightly interesting, what really matters, according to the researchers themselves, are the neural network implicated by the gene. So sorry to disappoint and give you the less glamorous thought of a single gene being responsible for a marriage failing, but this is by far more accurate.

Heather Mills To Investigate Paul McCartney’s Accounts

It has been announced that Heather Mills is reportedly planning on hiring a firm of accountants to investigate her estranged husband’s fortune in a bid to land a larger divorce settlement.

Heather won $33 million cash and assets worth $15.6 million last Monday following the breakdown of her four-year marriage to the former Beatle.

Heather said that “The judge said Paul was only worth £400 million ($800 million), but everyone has known he has been worth £800 million ($1.6 billion) for the last 15 years“.

The publication also claims Mills is determined to prove the couple’s four-year-old daughter, Beatrice, cannot survive on the $70,000 allocated to her living expenses in the settlement.

A source said that “Heather says she can prove the amount of money she is being given to look after Bea will not last over the year. She is putting it to the test. She is keeping every receipt. Heather is hoping Paul will discretely make a payment to her annually rather than go back to court“.

What do you make of all this?

Heather Mills has been awarded a £24.3 million divorce deal

Apparently Heather Mills said that she is very pleased with her £24.3m divorce payout but has questioned the judge’s evaluation of Sir Paul McCartney’s estate.

Heather said that she would not appeal the decision but intended to appeal against the ruling to make the judgement public.

She said this was because it included private details about the couple’s daughter Beatrice, such as where she goes to school.

In a public summary of the judgement, it was confirmed that Paul had been ordered to pay Heather £16.5m, which in addition to her personal assets of £7.8m sees her leave the marriage with £24.3m.

When she was asked if it had been a mistake to represent herself, Heather said “Not at all. Lawyers couldn’t get anywhere near this figure.”

In an outspoken statement outside the High Court, Heather confirmed that four-year-old Beatrice would get only £35,000 a year.
