Melissa Leong announces major TV role on iconic series - after dramatic exit from MasterChef Australia


Melissa Leong has shared her latest career movie after leaving MasterChef Australia.

In an interview with The Daily Telegraph in October, the journalist and food critic described the show as 'full of heart' and 'incredible people' who are committed to saving lives. The food critic was dropped from MasterChef Australia last year amid rumours of a feud between herself and fellow judges Andy Allen and the late Jock Zonfrillo, which she has denied. Her enthusiasm was palpable when recently speaking to Daily Mail Australia about her new hosting gig on Dessert Masters, describing it as a 'dream come true'.
