Waters studied French Cuisine at Ealing College for three years, before cooking in top hotels, and winning awards including a scholarship to the Hotel Intercontinental in Düsseldorf.[citation needed] She then joined Prue Leith's restaurant, where she was promoted to senior chef. She then worked as a freelance corporate chef and caterer for government officials before joining Leith's School of Food and Wine as an instructor, rising to head teacher.[1]
Waters started in television in 1989 on various cable TV shows, before Ready Steady Cook and Can't Cook, Won't Cook.[1]
Waters is married to Tim, a photographer, and the couple have two children. They live in a manor house near Halstock, Dorset.[2] The house is now the base for Waters' cookery school.
A panel of dietary experts recently publicly praised Waters for the use of ‘good fats’ in her recipes.[3]
