Kirstie Allsopp Criticizes Gregg Wallace's Comments

TV presenter Kirstie Allsopp has accused Gregg Wallace of making an inappropriate sexual comment within an hour of their first meeting, stating it left her feeling 'embarrassed'. This revelation comes amidst multiple complaints against Wallace regarding his conduct, which he has attributed to 'middle-class women of a certain age'. Allsopp defended her decision not to report Wallace's behavior at the time, citing feelings of embarrassment and a desire to avoid conflict. In response to backlash, she challenged critics to consider how they would feel if similar comments were made to their female relatives. Wallace has stepped down from MasterChef while his past conduct is being reviewed, having faced allegations since 2008. The incident has sparked broader discussions about workplace conduct and accountability in the entertainment industry.
