Nigella Lawson has told a jury her ex-husband said he would "destroy her" if she did not go back to him and clear his name.
She insisted that allegations of drug use circulating on a "PR blog" were false and were intended to destroy her reputation.
The 53-year-old made the remarks when questioned about Charles Saatchi as she gave evidence at Isleworth Crown Court at the trial of two former personal assistants accused of spending thousands of pounds on company credit cards.
She said: "If I did not go back to him and clear his name he said he would destroy me."
It is alleged that between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2012, Italian sisters Elisabetta and Francesca Grillo committed fraud by abusing their positions while working for Ms Lawson and Mr Saatchi.
The jury was told they are accused of using credit cards loaned to them by the TV chef and art dealer to spend more than £685,000 on themselves.
Ms Lawson told the court: "I do not believe her (Elisabetta) to be a bad person but I believe her not to have a very strong moral compass.
"I was flabbergasted when I learned of the spending."
Elisabetta, 41, sometimes referred to in court as Lisa, and co-defendant Francesca, 35, both of Kensington Gardens Square, Bayswater, west London, deny the charge against them.
