Simply Nigella will begin airing on BBC 2 in autumn this year and will focus on the basics of cooking, while still catering to the buxom beauty’s famous decadent taste.
The cook said the show will be about “food that makes our life easier, that makes us feel better, more alive and less stressed.”
The celebrity chef last appeared on television in early 2014 co-hosting US show Taste, which was short-lived thanks to authorities who denied her entry into the country, after she admitted to previously using cocaine.
The self–made millionaire, who forged a career through her love of “naughty” foods, was forced to divulge the intimate details of her personal life during a bitter court case back in 2013.
55 year-old Lawson was a witness during a fraud case against her former assistants, Italian sisters Francesca and Elisabetta Grillo.
Her then-husband Charles Saatchi brought on the case after accusing the two PAs of spending large amounts of money on the couples’ credit card.
The accused pleaded innocent and won, telling the jury that their domestic goddess boss allowed them to use the credit cards, in order to keep her drug habits a secret.
The British bombshell bounced back however, gaining admiration from the public for the way she handled herself during the strenuous trial, which dug up some pretty grim details on her personal life.
Business mogul, Saatchi’s relationship with the beloved TV personality came to an abrupt end when horrifying pictures of him surfaced with his hand around his then wife’s throat.
In court, Lawson described her ex-husband as a “brilliant but brutal man” whose “intimate terrorism” drove her to drugs.
