    In 2017, I took part in Celebrity Masterchef. I put my first dish down in front of the judges and the cameras paused to reset. In front of everyone, Gregg Wallace told me to tell a colleague at the BBC “that she was a sexy bitch.” No-one said anything. And yes, I did complain.

    As that woman-hating rat is sentenced to a whole life order, I won't use his name, I won't post anything with his picture. I only want to see the faces of these three women, the victims of pure misogyny and terror, cut off in their prime. Rest in peace Carol, Louise and Hannah.

    *deep breath* This is my first Christmas tree. I don’t really know how you decorate them. We got a small one so me and my daughter could carry it back. This is for her. And for the 6 year old me who would have done ANYTHING for a Christmas tree. Guess it’s time to let that go.

    Just realised that a man who once put his hand in front of my face and tick tocked around it, seriously saying that my biological clock was ticking - is now the chairman of an organisation that “champions” women and diversity. But of course he is….

    Last week I was too busy to address Danny Kruger’s remarks re staying together for the good of the children. Children deserve a peaceful home with good vibes. I don’t need a husband/partner when I have this absolute beauty behind me, rooting for me. We’re going to be just fine. X

    Replying to @AasmahMir
    There was a complaint and he was told to apologise which he did. In an email to a BBC boss I was told that Wallace’s behaviour was “unacceptable” and “couldn’t continue”. Judge for yourself if it has.

    I left the competition first. But two female contestants including Ulrika Jonsson told me afterwards that he had told another contestant that the way she was handling fish “looked like a rapist doing foreplay.”

    Let me tell you about my friend Richard Coles. He wears holey jumpers and eats smelly lunches in the office. He sings the same eight bars of a song all day long. He is also fiercely loyal, loves Scotland and is excellent at swearing. I’ll miss him. ❤️
