Heather Mills was ‘chatting up’ a Johnny Depp look-a-like barman hours after details of her divorce were made public.

The former model popped into The George pub near her East Sussex home last week for drinks with friends, and immediately started flirting with barman Colin White.

After telling him he looked like Johnny Depp (we’ve seen his picture - he does) Heather then launched into a diatribe about the benefits of being a vegan.

He tells the Sunday Mirror, “She looked very stylish and classy in boots and a red coat, which she took off to reveal a black sleeveless low-cut top.

"She said nutrition was really important in a diet and that it was possible to eat well and be a veggie. I said I like to eat meat which she frowned on and kept saying I should be a vegan too. I said I didn't think that's for me."

Sounds like a bad chat-up technique to us.

Despite the vegan hints, White claims he didn’t recognise Heather.

"I just thought I was being chatted up by a fit blonde nutritionist,” he says. "She was looking straight at me and smiling. I just knew they were signs she fancied me. It was quite flirty and quite nice, to be honest.”
