Well, it's not so secret now, is it? Last summer Paul underwent coronary angioplasty, which opens arteries to allow greater blood flow.

According to a source, "Paul had been complaining about not feeling well and saw a Harley Street specialist at the London Clinic. Tests were carried out and the decision was made to operate. Paul had the angioplasty in a private hospital. It was all very routine, but any work on your heart is a big deal."

He made a good recovery and is still in good shape, eating well, and at a healthy weight.

Stella has been named Person of the Year by the animal rights charity, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). The fashion designer refuses to use leather or fur in her collections. PETA's US senior vice-president, Dan Mathews, has said, "Stella McCartney proves you can have a look that kills without killing."

Stella's campaigning includes challenging British Airways to remove the leather seats from their first-class cabins.

Last month she was also named Designer of the Year at the British Fashion Awards. Go Stella! (On a random note, try her perfume, Stella, it's great!)
