Sky News has contacted representatives for Gregg Wallace for comment on the allegations against him.

His lawyers say it is “entirely false that he engages in behaviour of a sexually harassing nature”.

A BBC spokesperson said any issues raised are taken seriously and there are “robust processes in place” to deal with them. They added: “We are always clear that any behaviour which falls below the standards expected by the BBC will not be tolerated.”

Banijay UK, the Masterchef production company, has appointed a law firm to lead its investigation. It said the company takes complaints “incredibly seriously” but will not comment on individual allegations while the investigation is ongoing.
