Thanks NBY, I remember Trinny for her TV Programme. Well at least Saatchi doesn't go for dolly birds. The US is still out on whether Nigella will have her own programme, the tasting programme is with other "tasters."

Nigella , looking very serious was stopped by a Sky Reporter and asked how she felt. Her reply was that she was mortified to have so much of her private life in all the Press, and walked away without saying anything else. With the latest News that Saatchi is spending time on a luxury yacht with Trinny has not helped, nor that Trinny managed to kick her drug habit years ago.

Charles Saatchi and Nigella Lawson could face an investigation into their tax affairs after the acquittal of two former aides on fraud charges.
Tax specialists said HM Revenue & Customs may contact the divorced couple to check whether gifts made to Francesca and Elisabetta Grillo and to other employees were declared as taxable benefits in kind.
The Grillos and other employees could also be pursued for tax if they have not paid it on gifts such as holidays and luxury goods.
The Grillos have never suggested they declared any of the £685,000 they were accused of fraudulently spending on a company credit card, or that their employer paid national insurance contributions on it.
Jason Collins, a tax expert at City firm Pinsent Masons, said: “If an employer provides an employee with anything that is not specifically needed for their work, that is counted as a taxable benefit.

“So if an employer pays for an employee to go on holiday on their own, or pays for the cost of a wedding reception, as was mentioned in the trial, that should be declared as part of the employee’s income and national insurance contributions are payable by the employer at 13.8 per cent.
“Not only that, but the value of the gift must be converted into gross salary, so if someone is in the 40 per cent tax band and their employer pays for a wedding reception that costs £12,000, that would have to be declared as £20,000 of income for tax purposes.”
Mr Collins said it was up to the employer to tell HMRC how much each employee earned each year, including gifts, and to pay national insurance, though it was up to the employee to ensure that they had paid the correct amount of income tax.
The Grillos were paid by Mr Saatchi and held company credit cards in the name of Conarco, the firm he uses for his art trading. The credit cards were paid off each month by Mr Saatchi.
They told the jury during their trial at Isleworth Crown Court that Miss Lawson allowed them to buy thousands of pounds worth of clothes at a time to thank them for their work, paid for their holidays and allowed them to buy handbags costing up to £5,000 each.
Mr Saatchi claimed he was unaware of the spending, and his accountant Rahul Gajjar said the credit card bills were paid in full by Mr Saatchi each month without anyone checking what the money was being spent on.
One of the sisters was initially employed by Miss Lawson, and three other personal assistants who described gifts including fitness classes, clothes and beauty therapies are currently employed directly by her.
Mr Collins said: “The Saatchis would be dealt with by HMRC’s high net worth unit, and if the Saatchis haven’t got in touch with them already I would imagine they will hear from them at some point if tax has not been paid on these gifts.”
A spokesman for Miss Lawson said they did not know whether tax had been paid on the gifts, but added: “Conarco was the employer.”
Mr Saatchi, who is still pursuing a civil claim against the Grillo sisters, could not be reached for comment.
A spokesman for HMRC said: “We don't discuss specific tax affairs but in general the rules say that when you benefit from something provided to you by your employer there may be a tax charge. National Insurance Contributions might also be due. Anyone in any doubt can use the guidance on our website to check the position.”
Meanwhile Miss Lawson remains every inch a goddess to her fans in the US, despite her admissions of drug use.
After the first episode of the latest series of The Taste was broadcast by ABC, viewers declared their adoration for the “gorgeous” cook.
During the two-hour opener to the second series of the cookery contest, Miss Lawson flirted with contestants as she and her three fellow judges picked four cooks each to mentor after blind tasting sessions of their food.
One Twitter user described Miss Lawson as a “flawless human being” after watching the show, while another said she was a “goddess queen” who had “seduced” them.
Female viewers were also won over by the 53-year-old, with one saying: “I’d use crushed pearls on my face if it would make me that perfectly ivory.”
A British version of the show begins on Channel 4 on Tuesday.

Why is that funny panda ? Are you planning to curse this woman for the rest of her life and take some warped satisfaction from her misfortune ?
I am sure she will cope with that.

I think everyone has got the message panda you clearly have no sympathy for this woman who got herself caught up with a bully in a controlling relationship.
You have been cussing and cursing her for 11 pages now,people will start thinking your more than a tad jealous of her good fortune !
Maybe its time to move on to your next victim.

I have never liked Nigella's TV shows: she's too simpering for my liking. However, as a victim of emotional and physical abuse, I'm 100% on her side. The USA has managed to allow quite a few terrorists to enter their land and Nigella has never been found to be in possession of illegal drugs, but she's banned?
