Former BBC producer breaks silence about popular cooking show host's behavior

A former BBC shows producer Georgia Harding has stepped forward with eye-opening details about well-known tv host Gregg Wallaceʼs conduct. Having worked on popular shows during 2014-15 Harding points out several red-flags that were overlooked by management

The ex-producer describes an environment where inappropriate behavior became normal: Wallace would make sex-related jokes change clothes in public areas (despite having a private room) and show-off his workout results which made staff feel un-easy. “Its just how he is“ became a common response to complaints she says

A contestant from Eat Well For Less shared her own experience - describing how Wallace invaded personal space made sex-related comments and showed anger when people didnt laugh at his jokes; stating they should because he was the “talent“. The shows production company RDF (now part of Banijay UK) hasnt commented on specific claims while investigation is on-going

The situation has grown more serious as three women stepped forward with physical contact claims.

  • A former cooking show participant said she was touched while cooking
  • Another woman described an unwanted touching in a pub
  • Emma Kennedy a Celebrity MasterChef contestant witnessed an incident with a camera assistant back in 2012

A decade-old incident involving Wallace and a production team member - where he allegedly made inappropriate physical contact while she was fixing his clothes - is now part of a BBC inquiry. The presenter has stepped back from his MasterChef duties‚ while his representatives state all harassment claims are false
