Former PAs Francesca and Elisabetta Grillo, who are sisters, deny fraudulently using credit cards.

Elisabetta Grillo told the court that Nigella Lawson gave her permission to pay for designer shoes and a language course on a credit card provided by Charles Saatchi.

The court was told that Elisabetta Grillo did not mention that Nigella Lawson had taken drugs in her original defense statement made in August because she “felt a remnant of sympathy” towards the TV chef.
