The star behind Deliciously Emma has hit out at being labelled a 'nepo baby', insisting that being the great-granddaughter of a major Sainsbury's baron has nothing to do with her success.
Food writer Ella Mills has said she knew people would describe her as a nepo baby when she set about creating her recipe blog and brand.
The businesswoman, known for her cookery books that promote a plant-based diet, is the great-granddaughter of Lord Alan John Sainsbury, of the Sainsbury's supermarket-owning family.
The mother-of-two told Good Housekeeping UK: 'I passionately wanted to do Deliciously Ella on my own. Of course, it didn't take journalists long to link the dots and I felt so bad in retrospect.
'I knew people would say I was just a nepo baby, but you don't sell 100 million products because 40 years ago Sainsbury's went public.
