PRUE’S NIGHT AT A PARIS ORGY
DAME Prue Leith’s sensational life story is to be made into a movie. Leith, 82, is overseeing the filming of her autobiography, Relish, via her own production company.
The film won’t be short of incident: from her long affair with the husband of her mother’s friend, to sorting out British Rail’s sandwiches, to making a fortune in both catering and publishing — oh, and keeping Paul Hollywood in line on The Great British Bake Off.
Not to mention the time she went to an orgy in Paris, aged 19. ‘I didn’t know I was going to an orgy. I thought it was a party. Went with a very nice guy.
‘All I can say is room after room of bouncing bottoms everywhere . . . I was so embarrassed.
‘Anyhow, this guy, he thought it was fantastic. So he just vanished.’
