Gregg Wallace has issued a blistering defence of himself on social media this morning after several people have come forward to accuse him of inappropriate behaviour.

The 60-year-old former green grocer said his accusers had were coming from “a handful of middle class women of a certain age”.


Wallace claimed he has worked with over 4,000 contestants “of all different ages, all different backgrounds, all walks of life” in his 20 years on MasterChef.

He fumed: “This isn’t right!”

The long-serving judge on the cookery program recorded a selfie video of himself addressing the complaints against him.
