Gregg Wallace begins new journey beyond MasterChef

Gregg Wallace has revealed how he avoided turning to alcohol following his departure from the hit cooking show MasterChef.

For those unfamiliar, the 60-year-old broadcaster was reportedly dismissed due to allegations of inappropriate behaviour.

He admitted that he went through a challenging period after being let go from the BBC series but chose to focus on his health instead of spiralling.

“I made a decision, when all this started, to really look after myself physically,” he said. “It’s been a difficult few month.”

Wallace committed himself to fitness and has since reinvented himself as a personal trainer.

He now reportedly runs a website called Gregg Wallace Health, where he offers wellness packages for £200 a month.

The television personality recently shared a video on Instagram showing him heading to the gym with a friend.

“I went on my own wellness journey and I’m healthier at 60 than I was at 30. I coach people over 50. I help them feel better, look better, and gain more confidence,” he explained in the reel.

In a recent interview, the former presenter also claimed that he had experienced inappropriate behaviour from women during his time on MasterChef.

“Being on MasterChef was brilliant,” he said, “but I had so many bad experiences on that show too.”
