I wonder if we can expect an expensive divorce for Nigella Lawson and Charles Saatchi? (Expensive for Saatchi, I mean) I certainly hope she is talking to her lawyers right now.
It is too easy to assume that domestic abuse and marital violence belong either in a bygone age or in dysfunctional familes where the man is an inarticulate bruiser and the woman a doormat . I apologise now to GNetters who have suffered abuse from their partners as my generalisation is sweeping and inadequate. But isn't it about time that this was "outed" as completely unacceptable and criminal behaviour? I hope she does press charges and that they throw the book at him, Alas, he will no doubt have a smarmy pants barrister to get him off for a megabucks fee. But for the present, I would like Nigella take on her opportunity to be a role model for all victims of domestic violence or abuse.
