Gregg Wallace has admitted 'defeat' and accepted his career is over in the wake of an investigation by a production company into his alleged sexual harassment and groping. The TV presenter, 60, stepped away from MasterChef after 13 people, including Newsnight host Kirsty Wark, accused him of 'wrong' and inappropriate 'sexualised' behaviour during filming.
The claims are across a 17-year period and include those of inappropriate behaviour, including roaming around on set naked with a sock on his penis, inappropriate jokes and two claims of groping crew members. In October Gregg vehemently denied that he had made inappropriate sexual comments towards women, declaring that he would never 'flirt with' or 'hit on' another woman and: 'I didn't say anything sexual'.
A source has now told MailOnline that Gregg has told friends that he 'accepts his TV career is basically at an end.'. They revealed that Gregg is being 'quite reflective and pragmatic' about the investigation and has concluded he has 'had a good run and done well for a bloke who was basically a greengrocer.'.
