As November melted into December, it proved a case of “out of the frying pan and into the fire” for the now-former presenter of BBC’s MasterChef, Gregg Wallace.
The 60-year-old star has stepped down from his long-running culinary broadcast role in the wake of numerous allegations of misconduct and inappropriate behaviour.
