Barrymore & Grant Warned
Drew Barrymore and Hugh Grant are among the latest group of celebrities to be warned they may have contracted the liver disease Hepatitis A from an infected member of a catering staff. They have been alerted of the threat by a letter from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health. The warning comes after health officials were alerted to a sick member of celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck’s catering staff, who may have inadvertently infected guests at a party following the launch of their new movie ‘Music & Lyrics’ on February 7th. The letter asks party guests to contact health officials or doctors if they ate uncooked food served at the event. The health officials list items from the “Mini Potato Skins Bar, the Taco/Fajita Bar and the 80’s Comfort Station” among the potentially contaminated items. Sandra Bullock and Adam Brody, who were also among the guests at the party, have received the letter. The latest health alert comes after Beyonce Knowles and the supermodel stars of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue were urged to get health checks last month after attending another Puck party, which featured the unnamed Hepatitis A carrier among the catering staff. Puck’s staff reportedly catered fourteen celebrity events since the beginning of the year. They had previously refused to name those events.

Mills Refuses Comment
Heather Mills has remained tight-lipped about media reports that she and estranged husband Paul McCartney are close to a divorce settlement worth $56million. According to tabloid reports, Mills has agreed to a deal offered by McCartney that she would give her cash and property to the combined value of $56million. The terms of the settlement also give her joint custody of their three-year-old daughter. Mills’ legal team denied the report. Neither of the couple’s lawyers has confirmed the latest allegations. The couple had not signed a prenuptial agreement before their 2002 marriage so Mills could have received a quarter of McCartney’s $1.6-billion fortune. During the divorce proceedings, which have taken place behind closed doors, reports surfaced that Mills was claiming she couldn’t support herself on less than $20,000 a day, or $6.6-million a year. She was reportedly also seeking sole custody of their daughter. According to the new deal, Mills will drop such demands in exchange for McCartney’s $8-million St. John’s Wood mansion and $48 million cash.”It’s amazing how quickly things have turned around,” a source said. “Heather has caved in on lots of things, including her money demands and the issue of sole custody. We now expect her to settle.”"Heather’s stance has completely changed. Paul’s legal team were worried she might have upped the stakes by threatening to leave England and take their daughter with her. It could still take weeks to thrash out a deal but they’re on the right path.” Although McCartney reportedly agreed to pay for Mills’ security costs during the divorce, she reportedly intends to speak out about her marriage.A source claims, “Heather told me ‘I will not sign a gagging clause because I want people to know the truth.’ ”
