Nancy Dell'Olio Cupid's been busy cooking up a little love storm.

And between none other than Nancy Dell'Olio and a certain culinary expert.

But who's the dude said to be getting the love pot on the boil?

Raise your spatula please Marco Pierre White.

Because, according to the Daily Mirror, the pair - who've been pals for ages - have taken their friendship to the next level.

The paper reckons Marco's been spied leaving Nancy's London pad, and that a recent date ended in a smoochy-smooch.

It's believed Marco's currently in the throws of divorcing his third wife.

A source told the paper: "Marco and Nancy initially went out for dinner nearly a year ago - but just as friends."

The source also went on to say: "But they met up recently and had a couple more dates - one of which ended in a passionate kiss. Marco has a weakness for strong, independent women and Nancy fits the bill. It is early days but it is fair to say they have a growing friendship."

Saucy.
