Gregg Wallace says he is in ‘best physical shape ever’ following ‘difficult few months’ after MasterChef scandal

Gregg Wallace says he is in “best physical condition” following a “difficult few months” after the MasterChef scandal.

“It's been a difficult few months, and I made a decision when all this started to really try and look after myself physically,” he said.
