BBC's Gregg Wallace steps down from MasterChef following allegations

Daily Mail  

BBC presenter Gregg Wallace will be stepping away from MasterChef while complaints from 13 people about historical allegations of misconduct including alleged inappropriate comments and jokes are investigated, it was revealed today. In a statement to the PA news agency, Banijay UK said: '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. In October Mr Wallace admitted he was feeling stressed amid allegations he made inappropriate comments towards women - and his fellow judge John Torode's wife alleged he 'repeatedly told rude jokes' on set. His social media riposte came as it emerged his MasterChef co-host John Torode 's wife Lisa Faulkner would think, 'I don't want to hear this', as he apparently delivered punchlines to crew of the BBC 's flagship cookery show.
