article: He is about to turn 80 but self-confessed ladies’ man Albert Roux has evidently lost none of his charm. The legendary French chef has been wining and dining a string of glamorous blondes since divorcing his wife of eight years, Zimbabwean-born heiress Cheryl Roux, last year. The coterie includes a former flame, an artist, a hospitality manager and the woman at the centre of his bitter divorce – former cloakroom attendant Nataliya Lutsyshyna. Chef Albert Roux with his second wife,  Zimbabwean-born heiress, Cheryl Roux before their divorce last year . Sources close to the restaurateur say he is ‘smitten’ with Ms Lutsyshyna, a 41-year-old Ukrainian who used to work at the Roux restaurant in Westminster. But this has not stopped him rekindling his close friendship with Debbie Spivey Izo, an American divorcee in her 60s whom he dated before his marriage to Cheryl, 58. He has also been meeting up with British landscape artist Lynne Moore and Eastern European tea hostess Ljiljana Pavicevic. Last weekend Roux was reportedly due to be helping his son Michel Jr cook at tennis star Andy Murray’s wedding reception at the Cromlix House hotel in Scotland. Instead he whisked Ms Lutsyshyna off on a romantic getaway to the South of France where they dined at the Michelin-starred Joel Robuchon Monte-Carlo restaurant. ‘Albert went to a lot of trouble to treat Nataliya,’ a friend of the chef said.

Debbie Spivey Izo (left), an American divorcee in her 60s whom he dated before his marriage and Lynne Moore (right) who says she has been invited to 'half a dozen dinners' Mr Roux, who once confessed to giving up on his childhood dream of becoming a priest due to his philandering, started stepping out with Ms Lutsyshyna last year after The Mail on Sunday revealed that his wife was divorcing him on the grounds of adultery. At the time, Mr Roux admitted he had seen Miss Lutsyshyna ‘a week, maybe ten days before the end of the marriage’. Mr Roux, who divorced his first wife Monique, the mother of his two children – Michel Jr, and Danielle – in 2001, is said to have spent thousands on his new girlfriend. Says a source: ‘Some of Albert’s friends are very concerned about the amount of money that he is frittering away.’ However, while he is in an exclusive romantic relationship with Miss Lutsyshyna, she is not the only woman in his life. Ms Spivey Izo reappeared on the scene soon after Mr Roux’s split with Cheryl. She flew to Scotland to see Mr Roux at his establishments there soon after he became a single man again. ‘Debbie has been on the scene for years,’ adds a source. ‘She was dating Albert before he met Cheryl and she never really went away. As soon as his marriage to Cheryl ended, Albert was back in touch with her.’ Lynne Moore, who met Albert Roux through Lib Dem peer Lord Sharman, admitted to The Mail on Sunday that they regularly meet up: ‘Albert has kindly invited me to about half a dozen dinners. 'He’s very nice, but we are not in a romantic relationship.’ Mr Roux has known Ljiljana Pavicevic, since 2008. She and Roux they often enjoy dinners together. When contacted by The Mail on Sunday, Ms Pavicevic, who is known as Lily, said: ‘I see Mr Roux with other colleagues, I have never had a dinner alone with him.’ Last night Cheryl declined to comment. A spokesman for Mr Roux said: ‘He has no comment to make on this. He tries to be extremely private.’
