Shamed MasterChef star Gregg Wallace has launched a new project after leaving the BBC show amid an investigation into alleged sexual misconduct.
The presenter, 60, has introduced a new range of “healthy” microwaveable frozen meals in a new career twist as he continues to work after being replaced by Grace Dent on TV.
Wallace announced the new move through his health and fitness company as he advertised the £8-a-plate products, revealing he had been taking advantage of having “some time at home”.
said of entrepreneurship: ‘I’ve been working on frozen ready meals from the GreggWallace.health recipe range for quite some time.
‘Let’s see how we get along. I managed to get some time at home and cooked a little. It’s a habit I want to get back into: cooking for the family once a week is something I really enjoy.’
Shamed MasterChef star Gregg Wallace has launched a new project after leaving the BBC show amid an investigation into alleged sexual misconduct – flogging £8 worth of ready meals.
He added: ‘All our meals are frozen and sent via the DPD AM delivery service. They will arrive frozen or at the correct temperature to transfer directly to your freezer, unless otherwise noted in the product descriptions.
Individual meals cost £8 or shoppers can buy eight for £60.
Wallace is currently under investigation by the BBC amid a series of allegations about his misconduct.
She was initially optimistic about the allegations, taking to Instagram to say they mostly came from “middle-class women of a certain age.”
He went on to ask: “Can you imagine how many women on MasterChef have made sexual comments or advances?”
Since then, several prominent names, including TV presenter Ulrika Jonsson and Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, have condemned his comments in public statements.
The former greengrocer later apologized for the controversial comments that sparked a public relations storm.
The host, under fire, said of his insult to middle-class women: “I was not in a good frame of mind when I posted it.” “I’ve been under a tremendous amount of stress, a lot of emotion.”

Among those who came forward with accusations against Wallace was a woman called Lisa, not her real name, who worked on the BBC show Eat Well for Less in 2015.
She told the BBC that Wallace “touched her inappropriately” when they were filming in a supermarket.
“He walked past me at the checkout, touched my butt with his waistband and his penis, laughed and said, ‘Oh, you liked that, didn’t you?'” she alleged.
“It was the way he reacted, other people would have said, ‘Oh, I’m sorry, can I come in?’ which would have been fine.”
Lisa also claims that she felt like she had to keep working, but she “wasn’t okay with it,” describing it as “slimy and disgusting.” He claims he raised it with a senior colleague, but nothing was ever done.
Banijay says they are not aware of this incident being raised with RDF Television, which produced Eat Well For Less.
A second woman claims she encountered Wallace while working at an event in 2022.
The woman, known only as Sarah, claims Wallace asked her to take him to the parking lot at the end of the event.
“As we were walking, he started putting his arm around me and said, ‘Come on, take my hand, don’t you want to stand next to me?'” she told the BBC.

Food critic Grace Dent, 51, (pictured with John Torode) will replace Wallace on MasterChef while the investigation into his behavior takes place.
Other claims include talking about his sex life on set, asking about women’s numbers, and repeatedly asking a gay woman about the “logistics” of dating other women.
Wallace’s lawyers said “it is completely false that he engaged in behavior of a sexually harassing nature.”
Food critic Grace Dent, 51, will replace Wallace on MasterChef while the investigation into his behavior takes place.
Dent will judge the upcoming 20th series of Celebrity MasterChef, having regularly appeared as a guest and then even as a contestant on MasterChef: Battle Of The Critics in 2022.
