British-Indian actress and ex-Big Brother housemate Narinder Kaur has uploaded a sunny update from Italy despite continued controversy surrounding an unwanted photograph of her posted on the internet. Her latest comments, though, were not about the case in court but rather about cuisine—or a dearth of Indian food in Sicily.
In a viral tweet on X (formerly Twitter), the 52-year-old posted a video of a plate of pasta, looking back on her week-long visit to Sicily. She told Kaur she had tried 19 types of pasta and kept going back for more of the same type of pizza.
“Day 7 in Sicily. I’ve eaten 19 types of pasta, the same pizza over and over. and would now kill for a samosa or curry,” she wrote. “Why is international cuisine so scarce here?”
Watch:
Her post quickly garnered over 800,000 views and sparked an online discussion about global food accessibility.
Defending India’s Food Diversity
Kaur also came to the defense of India’s food scene in a subsequent post, observing that though Sicily was lacking, India had plenty of international cuisines. “Before you all say—India is just all Indian food—not true, they offer all kinds of international cuisine,” she wrote.
A fan cracked a joke about asking if they could get “beans on toast” in Mumbai. Kaur answered, “Yes you can get that in India! And no. I disagree, Italian food is bland to me.”
Controversy with Laurence Fox
The social media posting is in the context of a legal struggle between Kaur and actor-turned-politician Laurence Fox. In April 2024, Fox reposted an upskirting photograph of Kaur from 2009, a picture taken secretly on X. The tweet sparked an 11-month Metropolitan Police investigation.
In March 2025, Fox was accused under Section 66A of the Sexual Offences Act 2003, which relates to the distribution of intimate images without permission, for sexual pleasure or to cause distress, reported The Guardian.
This month, Kaur and Fox went on trial at Woolwich Crown Court. Fox pleaded not guilty to the charges over distributing the image without consent.
Even as the legal process goes on, Kaur’s honest musings from Sicily have provided a moment of humor, even as they precipitate wider discussions—over food, consent, and online responsibility.
