Washington, Oct. 27: Former Beatle Sir Paul McCartney, who is in the midst of an acrimonious divorce battle with his second wife, Heather Mills, has reportedly warned his late first wife Linda’s close pal Peter Cox, that he might have to face legal action if the contents of her audio tapes were disclosed.

Cox, who co-wrote the book ‘Linda McCartney’s Home Cooking’ in 1989, was given the 15 cassettes containing an audio record of her ideas.

According to British newspaper the Daily Mirror, the 20-hour long recording also contain revelations of her marriage to McCartney, which he now wants to keep secret in the light of his bitter divorce battle with estranged wife Heather Mills.

An insider has revealed that McCartney’s management company MPL Communications and Cox have now entered into an agreement to keep the content of audio tapes confidential.

“They’re dynamite. Linda begins to unburden her troubles and the tapes become an audio diary,” Contactmusic quoted the source as saying.

“It’s a private and emotional confession. She vents feelings which she’d not dared share even with her closest loved ones. She found the tapes cathartic. Mr Cox has been silenced and the tapes remain a secret,” the source added. (ANI)
