BBC Investigates Gregg Wallace Over Allegations of Sexual Misconduct on MasterChef
Dec 1, 2024, 06:44 PM
Gregg Wallace, the presenter of BBC's MasterChef, is facing multiple allegations of inappropriate behavior, including sexual comments, groping, and racist remarks, prompting a significant investigation by the BBC. Reports indicate that complaints were made as early as 2012, with one notable incident involving Wallace allegedly making a comment about a woman's bottom, which he thought was humorous. Despite these allegations, Wallace has remained defiant, dismissing some of the complaints as coming from 'middle-class women of a certain age.' The BBC has appointed a law firm to lead the investigation into these claims, and there is mounting pressure on the corporation to address the situation, with some calling for MasterChef to be taken off air during the investigation. Wallace has also exited BBC MasterChef, and BBC Breakfast was halted to cover the breaking news of the investigation.
