Gregg Wallace apologises for his earlier post on Instagram
A writer who previously worked with former MasterChef star Gregg Wallace on his autobiography has accused him of sexually harrassing her. Ghostwriter Shannon Kyle alleged that the former BBC star made “revolting” and “sickening” sexualised suggestions to her, and touched her inappropriately.
However, Gregg Wallace's lawyers said: “Our client has denied that he has engaged in any such behaviour, and he specifically denies any sexual misconduct with Ms Kyle.”
Shannon, who was 35 at the time, was working with Wallace on his autobiography, Life On A Plate. She claimed that Wallace shared explicit details of his own sex life when working on the book between May and August 2012.
In an interview with Victoria Derbyshire for BBC's Newsnight, the writer alleged that Wallace inappropriately touched her thigh when she was sitting in the passenger seat of his sports car. She also accused the presenter of feeling her bottom after he appeared at the Good Food Show in Birmingham.
