Lorraine Pascale

Lorraine Pascale (born 17 November 1972) is a British TV chef and USA Food Network host and former model, best known for selling almost one million books in the UK alone.

From 2007 to 2012 she owned a retail outlet in London selling baked goods called Ella's Bakehouse named after her daughter.

"[1] In her early twenties Pascale married Polish musician[4] Count Kaz Balinski-Jundzill,[5] and gave birth to her daughter, actress Ella Balinska, "a year or two later".

During her career as a model, she walked with supermodels like Naomi Campbell, Karen Mulder and Kate Moss for Chanel, Versace and many fashion designers.

[10] Pascale recognised the need to ensure her future after modelling and embarked on a series of career "try-outs", including hypnotherapy and car mechanics.

A third book was published in 2012 and a series based upon it, called Fast, Fresh & Easy Food, aired in August and September 2012 on BBC Two.

In early 2014, Pascale co-presented and judged the UK version of My Kitchen Rules with Jason Atherton on Sky Living.
