Nigella Lawson’s ex-husband takes girlfriend on luxury holiday

Nigella’s ex takes younger lover on a birthday break to Spain
Charles Saatchi and girlfriend

Woodall has been sharing holiday snaps on Instagram – including one of her and the 70-year-old art dealer having breakfast in Madrid, which the fashionista captioned” “Half a century.”

Writing about her milestone birthday online, a smitten Woodall says she feels “very energised” by her new relationship with “a very special friend”.

The wealthy pair are no strangers to taking lavish trips. Saatchi and Woodall celebrated the New Year on board a £25 million super-yacht in the Caribbean partying with A-listers such as Kate Moss and Bryan Adams before sailing to St Lucia.

The loved-up couple have been spotted visiting boutiques, museums and just generally relaxing on their Spanish holiday, taking some time away from Saatchi’s divorce controversy which is still making headlines in the UK.

Saatchi married TV chef Nigella Lawson in 2003 but the pair divorced in 2013 just weeks after photos emerged of him apparently choking her in a Mayfair restaurant.

The split quickly became bitter and ended in a public mud-slinging match in court where Lawson’s former aides, Elisabetta and Francesca Grillo, were on trial for fraud.

The Grillo sisters were acquitted but the explosive case saw Lawson forced to admit she had used cocaine and marijuana in the past.

This week, Lawson and Woodall became involved in an apparent Twitter spat, with Woodall seeming to poke fun of Saatchi’s alleged assault of Lawson and Lawson posting a not-so-cryptic recipe entitled “slut’s spaghetti”.
