Nigella Lawson: John Terry and Frank Lampard make me swoon

Celeb chef is a huge fan of Chelsea and Match Of The Day

Nigella Lawson reckons there’s something she loves even more than cooking: football.

‘I never miss Gary Lineker and Alan on Match Of The Day,’ she admits.

‘When I had an operation on my back I started having hallucinations from the morphine they gave me.

‘One of the voices I heard was (my husband) Charles. The other was Alan Hansen talking about zonal marking.’

And while the celebrity chef, 47, wants to move away from her ‘blow-up sex doll’ image, she would gladly use every inch of her feminine charms to attract some Chelsea players.

‘I love the English boys in the team, they’re the backbone of the side,’ she reveals in Esquire magazine.

‘I only have to hear John Terry and Frank Lampard talk and I swoon.’
