MasterChef's John Torode previously revealed that he and co-host Gregg Wallace have 'never been friends' - as Gregg steps away from the show while historical misconduct complaints are externally reviewed
John Torode, the MasterChef judge, has revealed that he and co-host Gregg Wallace have "never been friends". Despite co-presenting the hit BBC1 show with the former market trader since 2005, John tries to steer clear of his colleague when they're not on camera.
The Melbourne-born chef described his colleague as "so OCD", adding: "It's funny, we've never been friends. We've not been to each other's houses... He's so OCD, he wouldn't know what to do. He'd build it up in his mind for three days, and probably make himself quite sick, then he'd have an argument with his wife and not turn up. If I went to his house, he would feel like he wasn't in control.
Amid the complaints about historical incidents, thirteen individuals, including ex-Newsnight presenter Kirsty Wark, have spoken up. Participating in Celebrity MasterChef back in 2011, Kirsty, now 69, reported that she witnessed Gregg making sexually suggestive remarks and jokes on set.
