Mati Conajero denies criminal damage with a child's scooter

Marco Pierre White's estranged wife Mati Conejero has been charged with vandalising his car ... using a child's scooter.

Mati, 47 is accused of damaging the celebrity chef's Range Rover in May outside his £2.5 million flat in Holland Park.

She pleaded not guilty to criminal damage and is due to appear in Isleworth Crown Court in October.

Mati, 50 year-old Marco's third wife, lives above the pizza restaurant he used to own in Chiswick with their ten year-old daughter Mirabelle. Their sons, Luciano, 19, and Marco, 18 live with their father.

Marco, who owns two Fulham restaurants.

Pierre White, who became the youngest chef to gain three Michelin stars, met Spanish-born Ms Conejero in 1992 and they married eight years later.

But the couple’s relationship deteriorated and they began divorce proceedings in 2007.

Last year they called off their divorce because of mounting legal bills, but they are still separated.

The chef, who is worth an estimated £25million, is reportedly now dating Silent Witness star Emilia Fox, 38.
