A video of Gregg Wallace refusing to eat Penny Lancaster's food has resurfaced online.
The Loose Women star has been brought into the public sphere after husband Sir Rod Stewart called Gregg out for saying he would not eat food she had prepared. It comes as MasterChef presenter Gregg faces allegations of "sexualised" behaviour whilst on the smash hit show.
BBC host Gregg was revealed to be stepping back from presenting MasterChef while investigations take place. However, this has not stopped people from coming forward with their stories of interacting with the host.

In a shocking post released on Thursday night (November 28), rock legend Sir Rod hit out at Gregg after footage emerged of him refusing to eat his wife Penny's tartare sauce. He also blasted her for using "whole eggs instead of egg yolks", a move that left her devastated off-camera.
"Good riddance Wallace," Sir Rod said in his post. "You humiliated my wife when she was on the show, but you had that bit cut out didn't you?
"You're a tubby, bald-headed, ill-mannered bully," he added in the bombshell update. "Karma got ya."
Taking part in the celebrity edition of the show in 2021, Penny prepared a delicious fried calamari with homemade tartare sauce. However, things would soon go downhill for the star as she got muddled in the various steps needed to make the dish, leaving her with an oily sauce.
As a result, the judges on the show would refuse to eat the tartare sauce, with one referring to the mess as a "raw egg and oil milkshake". While she admitted that the sauce did not look like the kind of sauce she would usually have, Gregg fired back, quipping: "You used whole eggs instead of egg yolks."
Fellow host and judge John Torode agreed, confessing: "What I've got here is a raw egg and oil milkshake; unfortunately, I can't eat that." But while her tartare sauce failed to hit the mark, she did receive raise for her calamari, with Gregg branding her a "stand out cook" from the mix of famous faces.
The surfaced clip comes after the BBC said it was looking into allegations of strange behaviour from the presenter whilst filming the show. In one bizarre encounter, the star allegedly told a junior female colleague he was going commando, wearing no boxers under his jeans.
Separately, the star was also accused of walking into the MasterChef studio completely naked expect for wearing a sock to cover up his private parts. On top of this, in a separate incident, he was said to mimic a sex act on a producer whilst she knelt down to clean the presenter's trousers whilst filming.
In total, some thirteen people have complained to the BBC about his conduct, which spanned across multiple programmes from 2005 to 2022, the channel said. However, the BBC has not publicly commented on the ongoing investigation.
