Credit cards 'were Nigella's idea'

Charles Saatchi has told a court it was his ex-wife Nigella Lawson’s idea to let their personal assistants have company credit cards.

The millionaire art dealer, who went through a high-profile divorce from the TV cook earlier this year, said he was “very fond” of Italian sisters Francesca and Elisabetta Grillo, who are accused of using credit cards loaned to them by the celebrity couple to spend more than £685,000 on themselves.
