I’d imagine the weird videos are because it’s dawning on him that he’ll never be back on masterchef.

Please just let him be finished so I never have to see or hear him again on TV or radio. 🤮

He hates women alright. And it’s not deep down. Middle aged women in particular as he has no use for them sexually - and if they’re no use sexually, what use are they at all 🙄. (Older women might get a pass if they fall within the twinkly granny stereotype that he can patronise.)
Unfortunately he is far from alone in this. After all, he was so confident that others would share his view, and this would vindicate him, that he put this on video and shared it with the world.
Good insight.
He doesn't seem to realise that middle class women of a certain age are the audience for Masterchef. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.
I just read an article about a contestant on Masterchef who considered walking out because of the atmosphere on set. Seems it wasn't just Gregggggggg but some of the set's crew/production team were rude and sweary (c and f words) with Greggggggg being the least sweary (but probably the most rude)!
Because they had to sign a non disclosure the contestant didn't say anything.

Blame 'women of a certain age'

I like to think this was deliberate

I think deep down he actually hates women while professing to love them.
More likely he hates himself and projects his self-loathing outwardly. I did read somewhere that one of his ex-wives said she left him because he was so overbearingly needy.

Is he too stupid to realise his comment about "middle class women of a certain age" would dig him in deeper and deeper. Bet he would be the type to comment on women's breasts in the office or make fun of women who were v short/ tall or not v attractive. He would see nothing wrong in looking up a girls skirt if she was on a stepladder filing or give a bum a quick pinch, disgusting old dinosaur needs to be put down.

The interview in the Daily Mail he reveals his bug issue with The Middle Class Woman - his mother. He literally describes how at the age of 15 she married his real dad, after he found out at age 14 who he was and then she rejected him and 'changed to middle class' which he didn't like. His own words, not banter, the man has trauma from his mum 'becoming' exactly what he says he has an issue with now

He also has the entitlement of an obese weird man with a tank personality going to the gym for a few months and being shocked that still nobody fancies him.

Lots of us have had trauma in our childhood but we grow up, accept it and learn from it.
We don’t use it as an excuse for bad behaviour

This. Plus I think he’s one of those men that enjoys making women feel uncomfortable. You can see how much he’s enjoying making that poor Strictly professional feel going on and on about his lack of underwear. No one wants or needs to know. Men like him cannot bear their behaviour being challenged and they always respond with insults to any woman who stands up to them.

I'm generalizing of course, but it seems to always be mummy or daddy issues with these people. I think of Russell Brand and how much of a horrible b his father was. Again, not excusing it, but I totally get it. Boris Johnson is another one. The relationships we have with our mother/father during our formative years really does affect our adult emotions and relations with others. It's facsinating to me.

Do I remember correctly that he openly admitted he slept with prostitutes? 🤢
His ex wife mentioned he cheated with prostitutes, spending the household budget. His misogyny is really extensive. He likes humiliating and bullying women.

Also, this balls about nobody raising it before - they did! and were brushed off. The BBC, including female managers, are complicit and lazy in tackling this. The idea of protecting the talent...with someone so talentless

He’s going to need a JCB to dig himself out at this rate.


I find it astonishing that rather than apologise, he’s just doubled down and described his accusers as ‘middle class women of a certain age’ though I note he stopped just short of the K word. Also, not wanting to jump to blaming the BBC here because ultimately, Wallace chose to behave the way he did, but it’s come out that numerous complaints were made against him over the years and what action was taken against him?

It’s also pretty depressing to see the usual response from a lot of men (and some women, it has to be said) that you can’t say anything these days and it was all just bants, why didn’t they speak up before now etc.

It always tickles me the way the BBC in particular goes on about 'protecting the talent' or having to pay talentless goons like Wallace and Lineker small fortunes for being presenters with sometimes dodgy personal views.

The BBC licence fee needs scrapping and a subs service put in, instead. Afterall, the rest of the world can watch it for bloody free at will. Go down a Netflix style of payment and security. I'm sure most folk would be agreable to that financial model and they might pick up revenue from around the world and potentially make even more money than they do now.

They just need to have a wholesale cleanse of the noncey/perv/gobshite element of their staff and hangers on - go back to the days when the BBC was trusted, and I ain't talking the 60s/70's.

what's a TV licence lol. Best thing we did was stop paying, rip up any letters that come in and ignore the door when they come chapping usually once a year.

I was just listening to LBC radio, James O'Brien was having a phone-in based on workplace harassment off the back of the Gregg Wallace story. He said he was surprised at the sheer volume of anecdotal stories coming in about Wallace . He said he couldn't read them all out but one woman had said she'd met GW, put something up on facebook about it ( not naming the celebrity) and she was shocked to get a number of people working in TV contact her and say who it was immediately. I would guess GW is going to end up being investigated criminally at this rate.

What’s interesting is that nobody (apart from the usual rentagobs) is sticking up for him.

Ringing up a commerical radio station and telling a story is worthless. I could do that. O'Brien also believed everything Carl Beech said about an establishment paedophile ring. I wouldn't trust James as far as I could throw him frankly.

What I find interesting about the supportive DMs he’s sharing on his stories is:

1. Most of these say something along the lines of ‘that one time I met you outside Tesco and spoke to you for 25 seconds, you were really nice to me’

2. The former contestants of MS who have sent him supportive messages have done so privately in DMs. They’ve not been public comments or public posts so as not to tar their own reputation as most have decent followings and are foodie influencers off the back of them appearing on the show. It’s a bit sneaky on their behalf so I’m glad he’s sharing these DMs so we all know who is secretly supporting him.
