MasterChef star John Torode brushes off Gregg Wallace's axe as he shares a sweaty selfie after a gym class hours after co-host announced he was stepping down


John Torode failed to address his MasterChef co-host Gregg Wallace's exit from the show as she brushed off his announcement by posting a sweaty selfie.

Banijay has not revealed the nature of the allegations, but last month it was claimed the grocer turned TV star had boasted about his sex life to a younger female BBC employee and took his top off in front of her. 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. 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.
