Rep Power: 10 | Nigella Lawson cutting kids out of will
Nigella Lawson cutting kids out of will
Posted Jan 29th 2008 5:01PM by Sandy Maple
Filed under: Celebrity kids, Celebrity parents  Celebrity chef Nigella Lawson knows a thing or two about privileged childhoods. Her father is a former Conservative chancellor and her mother is an heir to the Lyons Corner House restaurant empire. But instead of living a life of leisure with her family money, she went to work. After failing at Oxford University, she took several jobs in publishing and later as a freelance food critic. Eventually, she built her own empire as a celebrity chef and best-selling author of several books, including How to Be a Domestic Goddess. MORE HERE |

Rep Power: 10 | Her endorsements and products. She has a ton of things she has trademarked. Did you know she gets 'paid' to show up at clubs? That's another source. Rough life, huh?!

Rep Power: 10 | Yes ... that poor little rich girl.  I think with her the name is money. Maybe he should make them use another name.  | |

Rep Power: 2 | I normally don't talk about this, but MY dad left me ZIP when he died. My mother left me enough to pay my car off back when she died.
Really, I didn't want to know...but I was told that my dad left everything to his 2nd wife, "...the woman that took care of him during his last years on earth." And, that makes sure SHE won't worry about $$$$ for the rest of her life.
No regrets.

Rep Power: 10 | I guess it does get complicated when you have had more than one spouse. My parents are still married as are my husband's parents. And my husband is my one and only. | |

Rep Power: 10 | Thanks. Wait until you find them then you will be sure of it too.  Too many people settle too soon for a collection rather than a one and only. | |
