Police investigate Nigella ‘assault’

British police have begun investigating claims that millionaire art dealer Charles Saatchi assaulted his TV chef wife, Nigella Lawson, outside a London restaurant.

Photographs showing Mr Saatchi, 70, apparently grabbing his wife by the throat and also by the nose outside Scott’s restaurant in Mayfair appeared in the Sunday People newspaper.

Other photographs appeared to show Ms Lawson, 50, crying as she left.
