The MasterChef host Gregg Wallace is facing a probe into complaints about his alleged conduct on the BBC programme
Gregg Wallace has spoken out about complaints made against him, saying "middle-class women of a certain age" are behind them.
While MasterChef contestant Lisa Addison, who appeared on the show in 2022, wrote: "Filmed with Gregg two years ago. An absolute gentleman! The woke will not stop til they get what they want! Yet another example of the media destroying someone." A spokesperson for Penny has since revealed that she is prepared to go to the authorities. Speaking to Mail Online, they said: "While Penny is happy to talk to the appropriate authorities should they feel she has anything useful to add, she will not be discussing the matter with any broadcaster or newspaper at this time."
It comes as Wallace is "committed to fully cooperating throughout the process" during the BBC's investigation process, a statement from the show's production company Banijay UK to the PA news agency said. The statement read: "This week the BBC received complaints from individuals in relation to historical allegations of misconduct while working with presenter Gregg Wallace on one of our shows.
