He was married to food writer and celebrity chef Nigella Lawson from 1992 until his death in 2001, and had two children.

Diamond was the son of a biochemist and a fashion designer, and had a secular Jewish upbringing.

He grew up in Upper Clapton and Woodford Green, he then attended the City of London School and trained as an English teacher at Trent Park College of Education, now part of Middlesex University.

Later he taught at an all-girls secondary school, Dalston Mount Comprehensive in Hackney, London, before switching to journalism.

Diamond wrote a regular column for the Saturday edition of The Times from 1992 onwards called "Something for the Weekend", and worked as a presenter on BBC radio and television.

He met his second wife, Nigella Lawson, when they were both writing for The Sunday Times.
