Present Life
Mills has homes in Robertsbridge (worth £3.2 million), Hove (worth £1.5 million), a ski-chalet in Millstätter See in the Austrian Alps (bought for £1.4 million), and an apartment in the grounds of the 400-year-old Schlosshotel Velden, in Austria (bought for £1.5 million), having recently sold her condominium in Manhattan, at 173 Perry Street in West Village, for $5 million (bought for $4.9 million), and her apartment on The Bishops Avenue, Hampstead, for £3.75 million (bought for £2.4 million).
On 4 June 2010, a claim for compensation alleging sexual and maternity discrimination and unfair dismissal was brought by one Sara Trumble, who had been employed as a nanny for Mills' daughter since April 2004. The case was dismissed at Ashford Employment Tribunal Centre, Kent, with the tribunal concluding that all of Trumble's claims were unfounded. Employment judge Steven Vowles said that "Mills's kindness towards Miss Trumble showed that she genuinely cared about her as both an employee and a friend".

Famous quotes containing the words present and/or life:
“To “give style” to one’s character—a rare and noble art! Those practice it who compass all that their natures present as strengths and weaknesses and then fit them into an artistic plan until every one appears as art and reason and even weakness enchants the eye.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“your bones,
round rulers, round nudgers, round poles,
numb nubkins, the sword of sugar.
I feel the skull, Mr. Skeleton, living its
own life in its own skin.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
