Gregg Wallace, known for his role on MasterChef, is preparing to host a 12-hour live cooking show this Sunday on his TikTok account.
The programme, named "Gregg's Kitchen," is scheduled to begin at 10 am and will feature a variety of guests, including the social media-active Malik Butchers from Wolverhampton.
Wallace was sacked by the BBC last July after an investigation into historical allegations of misconduct, which upheld multiple accusations against him.
In a video posted on Malik Butchers’s Facebook page, Wallace says: “We are going to be cooking some amazing dishes, we are going to have some incredible guests, lots of cookery, lots of live chat and more importantly lots of very good offers for you to buy on TikTok shop.”
Wallace began co-presenting MasterChef in 2005, but it was announced in November 2024 that he would step away from his role while misconduct allegations were investigated.
A review later upheld 45 of the 83 allegations against him, which mostly occurred between 2005 and 2018 and included one of “unwelcome physical contact”.
It said the “majority of the substantiated allegations against Mr Wallace related to inappropriate sexual language and humour”, adding that “a smaller number of allegations of other inappropriate language and being in a state of undress were also substantiated”.
Mr Wallace issued an apology saying he was “deeply sorry for any distress caused” and that he “never set out to harm or humiliate”.
