Nigella Lawson has revealed that her husband, the art dealer and advertising guru Charles Saatchi, lost four stone on a "completely mad" egg based diet.
TV cook Lawson told the Daily Mail that Saatchi ate up to nine eggs a day during what she called a "completely mad eggs, eggs and more eggs diet".
She said: "For nine months, he ate three eggs for breakfast, three eggs for lunch and three eggs for supper. The doctor said to me, 'It's neck and neck whether Charles keels over or loses the weight first'.
"But it was easier for him than engaging in the whole business of food."
