Turning heads in the floor length dress, Heather showed off a hint of leg through semi-sheer inserts along the seem. And twirling for pictures, she flashed the flesh with a backless insert fastened at the neck.

Heather’s dress, with Japanese lily flourishes, was tapered in around the waist before billowing out to skim the floor.

Letting her short blonde tresses fall to her shoulders, Heather wore a smattering of light makeup to highlight her natural good looks.

Heather divorced Sir Paul McCartney in 2006 after four years of marriage and they share daughter Beatrice Milly McCartney, now 14.

In 2015 the former model slammed Paul after he collaborated with Rihanna and Kanye West on FourFiveSeconds.

Admitting that she believed he teamed up with the hitmakers to stay relevant, she added: ‘They’re [People] not [interested]. That’s the thing.’

‘If I go down the street, all I get is kids coming up to me. Half of them don’t even know who he is. That’s why he’s got to do songs with Rihanna and Kanye West, so people remember [who he is].’

‘Most of the time I have people going, “Oh my God, you’re a ski racer” or “You help the animals”, I own the biggest vegan company in the world, most of the money I earn goes into helping animals, disabled kids, landmine clearing charities, things that are changing the world.” 

She then defended their romance on Ireland’s Late, Late Show, adding: ‘This is just someone I fell in love with who to me was a normal guy who happened to write a few cool songs in the ’60s and a few in the ’70s.

‘It was just someone I fell in love with, like everybody who is a partner. You fall in love, you get married, sometimes you wake up and think “This is completely wrong” and you move on. There’s a massive nation of people who are divorced.’

‘I divorced someone I once loved and I was abused for it. If anybody put themselves in my position and went, ‘How would I feel if the world was constantly saying “What about that old baggage of yours?”‘ It’s so boring.’
