Nigella Lawson PA: 'She had most support' from public Nigella Lawson's former personal assistants have said they may have won their legal battle but the celebrity chef has won the hearts of the British public. Francesca Grillo said "I think maybe we won the court case but definitely she had the most support from the public." Francesca and Elisabetta Grillo spoke to ITV's This Morning following their acquittal last month on charges of fraud while working as personal assistants to Nigella Lawson and her ex-husband Charles Saatchi.
