The make-up and skincare expert, 59, earlier this week hinted she had split from Charles Saatchi, 79, the ex-husband of cooking queen Nigella Lawson, speaking of a huge change in her life and a house move.
Friends of the TV star, known for her early noughties fashion shows with Susannah Constantine, say she and Charles wanted different things, and she grew tired of their life together.
