Celebrity chef Nigella Lawson has announced her intention not to leave her children an inheritance, claiming she doesn’t want them to become spoiled:
“I am determined that my children should have no financial security. It ruins people not having to earn money.”
Right, except she herself is an heiress to the Lyons Corner House restaurant fortune. The former socialite was once fired from hosting a talk show because she bragged about how she paid people to do her weekly shopping; the producers on Talk Radio decided she didn’t fit in with the program’s “common touch.”
Lawson and her husband are thought to be worth about £110-million, or nearly $219-million in U.S. dollars. She has not announced any intentions to donate the money to charity, so it leads me to wonder if she’s just planning to spend it on herself?
Well she can always leave it to me! I promise not to be spoiled.
I thought her husband was dead, but that was from news article I read in 2002 and she’s hot and rich so no wonder she remarried. I really like her shows on Food Network, but this lowers my opinion of her. Yeesh.
