Tom Kerridge distances himself from Gregg Wallace - after previously saying MasterChef star was always 'full of jokes and charisma' Celebrity chef Tom Kerridge has given fresh thoughts on the Gregg Wallace scandal, saying it'll be 'horrific' if the allegations against the MasterChef star are found to be true.
An investigation into allegations of inappropriate sexual behaviour continues against MasterChef star Gregg Wallace; chef Tom Kerridge, who initially described Wallace as 'full of jokes and always full of charisma' when the allegations first came to light this week told The Times it will be 'horrific' if they're found to be true.
When asked by Sky News to comment on the allegations back in early December, Kerridge, who's married to artist Beth Cullen Kerridge, told the broadcaster Wallace was 'always full of jokes and always full of charisma'.
However, Kerridge is now seemingly now distancing himself from the MasterChef presenter, telling The Times today: 'I don’t really know Gregg in terms of hanging out with him.'.
Speaking to The Times, Kerridge, 51, who runs a string of successful foodie pubs including The Hand and Flowers in Marlow, Buckinghamshire, said that the food industry was all about making 'people feel comfortable'.
