Presenter Wallace fired from MasterChef
The Guardian
|July 09, 2025
Gregg Wallace was sacked as a MasterChef presenter yesterday before the publication of a long-awaited report on a series of allegations about his behaviour.
It comes as the BBC said it had been approached by more than 50 additional people with fresh claims about the presenter after a series of allegations last year. They include allegations, denied by Wallace, of groping one co-worker and having pulled his trousers down in front of a second.
The new allegations come just days before the publication of a report on separate claims made last year.
It led to the MasterChef production company, Banijay, commissioning a report on Wallace, which was overseen by the legal firm Lewis Silkin.
The new claims were made as Wallace admitted using inappropriate language but claimed to have been cleared of "the most serious and sensational accusations made against me".
In a statement on social media, the former BBC presenter said he had now been diagnosed with autism.
He said while his neurodiversity was discussed across "countless seasons of MasterChef", he was given no protection.
