TV cookTom Aikens takes on wife No. 3

WILL it be third time lucky for television chef Tom Aikens? I hear the 47-year-old cook is to make former investment banker Justine Dobbs-Higginson (above) his wife no.3.

‘I can confirm that the wedding is in the autumn, but all other details are under wraps,’ his spokesman tells me.

The chef wed his business partner Laura Vanninen in 1997, but their marriage broke down in 2004. Laura was devastated, saying: ‘I thought we would spend the rest of our lives together.’ In 2007, Aikens married baronet’s daughter Amber nuttall, but they separated in 2010. Fingers crossed . . .
