Gregg Wallace has transformed himself into a health expert after no longer being part of the popular BBC show MasterChef, which he hosted for 20 years. The 60-year-old presenter has been under a year-long investigation into allegations of past misconduct, with 50 people coming forward with claims of inappropriate sexual behaviour. Wallace has vehemently denied any misconduct, with his lawyer stating, "It is entirely false that he engages in behaviour of a sexually harassing nature," and on June 8, he publicly claimed that he had been cleared of all "serious allegations".

However, he did admit to being "primarily guilty of inappropriate language" between 2005 and 2018. Despite the controversy, Wallace has remained positive, actively promoting his new role as a fitness coach after losing five stones. He encourages his followers to join his one-on-one coaching sessions to "feel fitter and stronger" at a £200-a-month price tag.

Wallace appeared upbeat in a Sunday video promoting his new lifestyle coaching business. He asked viewers, "Are you feeling well? Are you feeling energised and healthy?" Then he shared his personal transformation story and encouraged others to "get rid of the belly" and improve their eating habits. He stressed that it's "not about salads or hours at the gym," and added: "What you need is a guide. Somebody who's done it."

The former Celebrity MasterChef host explained that the service is available to people of all ages, not just those over 50, and invited anyone interested to send him a direct message.

In a separate social media clip, Wallace promoted his well-being website, highlighting the variety of healthy recipes available for those looking to improve their diets. He said: "If you go to GreggWallace, you can currently access hundreds of quick-to-prepare healthy meals. We've been doing this for nearly five years, working with nutritionists to create simple, tasty, and nutritious dishes."

In April, Wallace told the Daily Mail that he denied all allegations against him and revealed he had considered taking his own life after accusations from women such as broadcaster Kirsty Wark, author and actor Emma Kennedy, and presenter Kirstie Allsopp.

A BBC spokesperson stated: "Banijay UK hired the law firm Lewis Silkin to investigate the allegations against Gregg Wallace. We will not comment until the investigation is finished and the results are released."

They also clarified that they did not dismiss Wallace, as they are not his employer.

Additionally, a Banijay spokesperson informed Sky News: "We will not comment until our report is available," which is expected to be published either later this week or next.
