A source said: "Paul felt there was something not quite right and luckily sought some professional help. It's not something that can be left to chance. Thankfully the operation went well and Paul feels great."
The operation, which opens up arteries to increase the flow of blood, was performed after Paul, 65, saw a Harley Street specialist at the London Clinic.
The procedure involves surgeons passing a small tube through the groin to the aorta. A tiny balloon at the tip of the tube is inflated to crush fatty deposits clogging the arteries, allowing blood to flow freely. A stent - a short wire mesh tube - is often left in the artery to keep it open. Paul's spokesman said: "It was a routine medical operation."
Next month, Paul and Heather will attend a five-day High Court hearing in a bid to finally agree on a divorce settlement. Heather, 39, is set to be awarded more than £30 million following a four-year marriage to the musician.
65!?! No way!
ReplyDeleteWow, I wonder why it was kept a secret. Isnt' it strange to think of angioplasty as a common procedure? I'm glad he came through it so well.
£30million for four years of marriage? Ouch! What do they call 'golddiggers' in the UK? Heather?
Yet while Heather claims she isn't in it for the money, she keeps upping the ante.
ReplyDeleteI, too, wonder why he kept the procedure a secret. I'm sure Heather is one of the reasons behind it.
Can't believe he's 65! And Heather...yeah...in it for the bucks!
