She seems like she has very low self esteem. Her mother was depressed and abusive, and her ex-husband...well, we know all about him. I feel badly that those two assistants turned on her after over a decade of loyalty, I really do think that Saatchi paid them off to smear her name during the trial.

Also the Saatchi brothers did do advertising for the Tory party and her ex-husband's brother was Party Chairman and is a Tory peer. Her dad of course was one of the very top men in the Thatcher government.

Jews are so quick to change their names to blend in. I knew a Jewish family that were converts to Christianity. They did everything you would think a good Christian family would do. They still had the unmistakable Jewish appearance.

If it wasn't for spandex or spanx she would not have that curvy figure. She has lost control over her weight.

I always get the impression that the other judges on The Taste don't take her serious. On one hand I'm "bring something to the table" and on the other hand I think they treat her less serious because she's a woman.

I love her TV persona. She's excessive in every way. On one episode of her show she made "black and blue" steak (burnt on the outside, raw on the inside) and ate it all herself. On another, she made pasta puttanesca, which she preferred to call "whore's spaghetti." At the end of the show, she woke up in the middle of the night and sat in front of the fridge and ate out of the giant pasta bowl, all sloppily like a big pig.

You know, like everyone does at home. Except more beautifully and better lit.

A silly woman called Trinny Woodall took up with Charles Saatchi about three days after he choked Nigella. Woodall was photographed with her tights around her arse in a cab (link) and also made some nasty comments directed at Nigella.

'Trinny Woodall turned 50 on Saturday and she spent the weekend at a Lake District hotel with Nigella’s ex-husband. Writing about her milestone birthday online last night, Woodall says she feels ‘very energised’ by her new relationship with ‘a very special friend’.

She then makes jokes that appear to be at the expense of Nigella, who was photographed last year being throttled by Saatchi, her then husband, at Scott’s restaurant in Mayfair.

‘It’s great that, at 50, life can still grab you by the throat and shake you up,’ Woodall tells the high50 website, a new online community for thrusting fifty-somethings.'

Nigella responded by tweeting the recipe for Slut's Spaghetti.

Anyway a year to the day after Saatchi throttled Nigella, he left Trinny crying at the SAME table at the same restaurant.

I absolutely love her. When I first saw her on the Food Network (US), obviously on her UK show that was just being rebroadcast here, I was completely taken by her. I'm as gay as they come, but I definitely have a crush on her just because of that big gorgeous face and the way she presents herself. I remember being surprised at the end of one episode when the camera (briefly, before going blurry as it does) showed her full body and I saw that she is on the grander end of 'Rubinesque,' but then that helped me to see what was so attractive about that body type in the old days. I've got no sexual feelings toward the woman, but she arouses many of my senses to be sure. Quite captivating.

Having read a bit about her, she does also seem to be one of those people who appears to have always been ultra-privileged in every way--social status, financially, aesthetically--and yet had a pretty challenging life in spite of it all.

Saatchi was a friend of Nigella's husband and I think maybe a friend of her father's too. He swooped in on Nigella when she was mourning her first husband's death and she married Saatchi on the rebound.

I like her. Every once in a while she grates on my nerves but for the most part she's enjoyable to watch. She's definitely fat and seems to carry it well, better than most. She's had some work done - no one her age has a jaw you can bounce a quarter off of without plastic surgery. She didn't go overboard with it nor with any of the other little nips and tucks and fillers and what-have-you's that she's had done. She looks really good. I'm glad that her husband wasn't able to destroy her in their divorce - he certainly tried.
