Celebrity chef Nigella Lawson is in the news today, but it’s not for any dessert recipes whipped up by The Taste panelist. It’s for something far more disturbing. According to a report in Great Britain’s Sunday People , Lawson and husband Charles Saatchi were dining at a restaurant called Scott’s when the latter reached over and grabbed his wife by the throat. The British newspaper actually has photos of the incident . “At one stage [Saatchi] tweaked her nose then pushed both hands in her face,” according to the report. “Twice Nigella jerked her head backwards as if in fear. Several times she nodded intently while the conversation became more and more heated.” Lawson was described by one witness as “distraught and in tears” throughout the confrontation, while another added: “It was utterly shocking to watch. I have no doubt she was scared. It was horrific, really. She was very tearful and was constantly dabbing her eyes.” Though the celebrity has not filed charges, police are looking into the incident. Lawson and Saatchi have been married since 2003.
