The charity campaigner, who is the estranged wife of Beatle’s legend Sir Paul McCartney, accompanied the former hat-maker to the opening of Fernando Botero’s new exhibition at Monaco’s Marlborough Gallery last week.

A source said: ‘They looked very cosy and he only had eyes for her. He was showing her off and even introduced her to Prince Albert II who was also a guest at the party.’

The 39-year-old former model – who lost her left leg below the knee in a motorcycle accident in 1993 – was also overheard telling fellow guests she was a trained musician who played the oboe.

Shilling, 51, is famous for once joking: ‘I love women to look beautiful and could never let a woman walk out of my shop wearing a hat that I didn’t think suited her.’

While in Monaco Heather also attended The Seven Deadly Sins, a play co-written and produced by her friend Mark Sinden.

Heather’s representative, Michele Elyzabeth, is yet to comment on romance rumours. Heather is currently embroiled in a bitter divorce battle with Paul. The former model is said to have demanded a substantial sum of money from the music legend, with reports ranging from £50 million to £100 million. The couple have a four-year-old daughter Beatrice.
