Madonna Seeks Legal Advice From Macca’s Lawyer
So we talked about her yesterday, and here we are again. This time Madonna is in the news because she has reportedly enlisted the abilities of Fiona Shackleton ? the lawyer who represented Paul McCartney through his bitter divorce battle with crazed harpy Heather Mills ? for her own divorce from husband Guy Ritchie.
A source close to the singer said Fiona is the natural choice for Madge: “Madonna always seeks out the best in whatever field she is interested in at any given time. Fiona Shackleton is the best.”
Madonna ? who quite remarkably doesn?t have a pre-nup with Guy ? has been hoping to resolve their differences but when she knew that marriages day was done, she sought legal advice.
One friend of the lawyer - who also represented Prince Charles in his divorce from Princess Diana - said: “Madonna was impressed by Fiona’s work for Sir Paul and the way she handles herself in the public eye. She is a consummate professional.”
Earlier this month Madonna had to deny rumours she was consulting Nicholas Mostyn QC ? the lawyer who represented heather Mills.
Madonna, 49, and Guy, 39, have a seven-year-old son Rocco and an adopted son David, two. Madonna also has a daughter, 11-year-old Lourdes, from a previous relationship.
