Nigella Lawsonโs voluptuous figure made her an international sex symbol almost overnight, but thereโs now a lot less of the star for fans to love.
The celebrity chef, 53, has showed off her dramatically slimmer figure in promotional pictures for her new US cooking show The Taste, which premieres on January 22.
Nigella has always insisted she doesnโt want to be โthinโ because being healthy was much more important.
Despite this, she has slimmed down dramatically in the past six months, going from a size 16 to a slender size 12.
