Furious, and fed up with playing the victim, the domestic goddess gets tough after her husband’s latest public humiliation.
If Nigella Lawson’s husband Charles Saatchi thinks he’s had the final word by announcing he wants a divorce, he had better think again. Friends say the star is as mad as hell that Saatchi is now painting her as the guilty party in their marriage – and she’s “ready for a fight”.
Without any warning last week, Saatchi told a British paper he plans to divorce the domestic goddess, alleging he is the mistreated one.
The 70-year-old art collector said he had no choice after his wife refused to defend him publicly after photos of him clutching her throat in a heated row at a posh London eatery were published.
What’s more, he claims she does the same to him during arguments at home. Friends say Nigella was “left reeling” by Saatchi’s “cruel” assertions that he had “clearly been a disappointment” to his wife over the past year while they had been “drifting apart”, and that in the weeks since she left their home following the choking incident, she hasn’t returned his calls.
