The 'Top Chef' host remains tight-lipped on the father of her daughter.
'Top Chef' host Padma Lakshmi has certain rules when it comes to her 20-month-old baby daughter, Krishna. "I never Tweet about my daughter. Never. I just want to be respectful of her privacy," she told People recently.
However, the 41-year-old mother seems to have another rule as well, one that involves never mentioning the father of her child, venture capitalist Adam Dell of the computer empire family.
Looks like the 'Top Chef' Host is stirring up a bit of custody drama with her daughter's father!
So it seems that stunner and host of 'Top Chef' Padma Lakshmi is cooking up a bit of trouble and it's a lot less tasty than the action we get on her hit reality show. No, it's more of the parental custody kind.
These famous ladies decided to take on motherhood on their own, and it looks great on them.
With Jennifer Aniston's new single-mom-by-choice comedy, The Switch, getting Bill O'Reilly all het up about how single mothers are destroying America, we decided to take a look at some famous single mothers who decided to embark on the tough and rewarding job that is parenthood by themselves.
Naming of 'medical miracle' baby is further evidence of an immaculate conception.
This weekend Padma Lakshni, 39, gave birth to a baby girl and named her Krishna, after the dark-skinned, flute-playing Hindu god thought to be the incarnation of the Supreme God Vishnu— An interesting choice considering that the father's identity has yet to be revealed.
Padma Lakshmi is single. This greatly concerns Gawker's Joshua Stein. He blames the failure of the Top Chef finale on her singledom. His goal is to find a husband for Padma Lakshmi post haste. And you can help.
Padma Lakshmi has an eye for powerful, established men.
The hostess of Top Chef, Padma Lakshmi, is a lady-about-town. She's been linked to several powerful men in the last year. These men included a condemned novelist, a private equity maven, and a technology guru. Pretty good work.

Billionaire Ted Forstmann has trained his gaze on another world-class beauty.
The financier, whose consorts have included Elizabeth Hurley and Princess Diana, has become a fast friend of model, chef and actress Padma Lakshmi.
Their mouthpieces maintain that the two are not dating. But that hasn't stopped some from noticing that Forstmann has appeared in Lakshmi's life just as her husband, author Salman Rushdie, is leaving it.
Reps say the 67-year-old tycoon and the 36-year-old host of Bravo's "Top Chef" have been meeting simply because she's become a client of Forstmann's International Management Group, the sports and entertainment marketing giant.
Salman Rushdie Issues A Decree: Padma Lakshmi Is Hereby Divorced
From Reuters By Claudia Parsons
NEW YORK (Reuters) - British author Salman Rushdie and his wife Padma Lakshmi, host of TV show "Top Chef," are getting divorced, his spokeswoman said on Monday, just two weeks after he was awarded a controversial knighthood.
Rushdie, 60, is best known for his novel "The Satanic Verses," which outraged many Muslims and sparked death threats that forced him to live in hiding for nine years.
He married Lakshmi, a former model born in 1970 in India, in 2004. She was his fourth wife and the couple had no children.
"Salman Rushdie has agreed to divorce his wife, Padma Lakshmi, because of her desire to end their marriage," spokeswoman Jin Auh said in a statement on his behalf.
