Gregg Wallace announces he’s stepping down from BBC MasterChef as ‘misconduct’ accusations investigated
Gregg Wallace will be stepping away from presenting MasterChef after nearly 20 years.
The news comes as complaints made to the BBC from individuals about historical allegations of misconduct are investigated, the show’s production company Banijay UK said.
Wallace, 60, has starred on the cooking show since 2005 alongside John Torode, 59.
It comes after a separate BBC review found he could continue working at the corporation following reports of a alleged 2018 incident.
The report was from his appearance on Impossible Celebrities.
Last month, Wallace denied saying “anything sexual” while appearing on the game show.
