Happy again! Nigella Lawson is all smiles as she returns to the UK after filming
SHE'S had a rather tough year thanks to her court ordeal and public divorce, but Nigella Lawson looked back to her smiling self this week as she landed back in the UK following a stint in America.
The TV cook, who donned an almost constant withdrawn and gaunt look last year - proved just what difference a break can make as she returned from the US, where she was filming for the latest series of her real it TV show, The Taste.
Sporting a large smile across her face, the pretty brunette looked back to her old self as she made her way through the arrivals lounge, clutching a coffee cup and donning a super chic outfit.
She wore a pair of skinny jeans and a black and white striped top, which she teamed with a checkered coat.
And adding a glamorous edge, the 54-year-old finished off her look with a pair of stylish heeled ankle boots and an over the shoulder handbag.
Nigella, who seems to have out her troubles from the past year behind her, wore her brunette locks in loose waves and kept her face free from much make-up - a stark contrast to the heavy made up look she wore last year.
It hasn't been a great 12 months for Nigella, which began when she was pictured being grabbed round the neck by her then-husband Charles Saatchi.
She was then embroiled in the freud trial of her assistants, the Grillo sisters, but it seems that thing might finally be looking up for the brunette.
