Lady Powell, a former model and friend of the late Baroness Thatcher, was pistol whipped and robbed at gunpoint by a group of masked men at her villa in Italy.

The socialite was attacked at around 1am on Monday after the gang, suspected to be Eastern Europeans, broke into her home near Palombara Sabina, a hilltop medieval village outside Rome.

The gang forced Lady Powell, formerly Carla Powell, and two members of staff to lie on the floor and threatened them by firing at least two rounds from a weapon into the wall.

One of the robbers struck her head with a pistol, leaving a large bruise. One of the male employees had his leg twisted so violently that his knee was dislocated. The gang then stole all the cash and jewellery they could find in the villa.

Lady Powell is the wife of Lord Powell of Bayswater, former private secretary to Margaret Thatcher and then John Major while they were in Number 10.

Lord Powell was in Singapore when the robbery happened but returned to Italy as soon as he could, arriving at the villa to comfort his wife on Monday afternoon.

Lord and Lady Powell, who live between Italy and London, are well connected socially and have hosted Tony Blair, Sean Connery and Dick Cheney and Colin Powell.

As foreign-affairs private secretary to Mrs Thatcher through the Eighties, Lord Powell was at her side during key events abroad.

Q: I have been told I need to cut down on sugar, especially chocolate. Does this mean I also need to limit my fruit consumption? Are there some fruits which are better for you – and some that have less sugar than others? Are there any other low-sugar snacks you can recommend?

A: Sara Stanner writes

You are not alone – the results of a recent national survey show that most of us are still eating too much added sugar which increases the risk of tooth decay and can encourage us to consume too many calories which in turn causes weight gain. On average, men are recommended to keep their daily intake of added sugars below 70g and women below 50g – that’s equivalent to 13 teaspoons of sugar a day or two cans of fizzy drink, or 10 chocolate digestive biscuits – although individual amounts will vary depending on your size, age and how active you are. Sugar is found in many manufactured foods such as sweets, cakes, biscuits, chocolate and some fizzy and juice drinks. It may also be added to foods we may not think of as “sugary”, like some savoury or low-fat and “diet” foods. The easiest way to cut back is to look at these products’ nutrition labels. These will tell you how much total sugar a food contains (anything over 22.5g of sugar per 100g is a high-sugar food, while foods with 5g or less per 100g are classed as low-sugar foods). But “total sugars” include sugars naturally present in fruit and milk as well as sugars that have been added. Many foods containing lots of fruit (such as a ready-made fruit salad) or milk (such as yogurts) remain healthier choices despite having high total sugar contents, so you also need to look at the ingredient label.
