Gregg Wallace attacked by Rod Stewart again as he brands MasterChef judge 'old yellow teeth'
Rod Stewart has hit out at former MasterChef judge Gregg Wallace once again, calling him “old yellow teeth.” It comes days after the iconic singer claimed he ‘bullied’ his wife Penny Lancaster as she appeared on the Celebrity version of the cooking show.
The 79-year-old was seen entering a car after he enjoyed a Christmas night out at the bar in Claridges, when a photographer asked him if he would be having Gregg round for Christmas dinner. In a video obtained by MailOnline, the star could be heard exclaiming: “What, old yellow teeth?” as the photographers were heard bursting into laughter.
Earlier this week, the Maggie May singer hit out at Gregg on Instagram for allegedly 'humiliating his wife'. It came after Gregg stepped down from his role on the show while an external review into allegations of misconduct against him was conducted .

Banijay UK announced an “immediate, external review to fully and impartially investigate” and said that the star was “committed to fully cooperating throughout the process”. Gregg’s lawyers deny any sexually harassing behaviour.
Sending a message to Gregg, and his 1.4 million followers, Rod penned: “Good riddance Wallace... You humiliated my wife when she was on the show, but you had that bit cut out didn't you? You're a tubby, bald-headed, ill-mannered bully. Karma got ya. Sir Rod Stewart.” Penny competed in the in 2021 and made it to the quarter-finals.
Following the allegations, the BBC announced earlier this week that two Celebrity MasterChef specials, a Celebrity MasterChef Christmas Cook Off and a Strictly Festive Extravaganza, have been pulled from its festive schedule.
The BBC said: “As we have said, MasterChef is an amazing competition which is life-changing for the chefs taking part and the current series of MasterChef: The Professionals is continuing as planned. The celebrity Christmas specials are obviously a different type of show and in the current circumstances we have decided not to broadcast them.”
Three episodes of BBC Two’s Inside The Factory, which are repeats, are also coming out of the schedule, the BBC said.
The Celebrity MasterChef Christmas Cook Off, was set to feature Emmerdale actor Amy Walsh , comedian Shazia Mirza, reality star Luca Bish, and The Wanted singer Max George, who all appeared on Celebrity MasterChef last year, all competing for the glittery Golden Whisk Trophy.
The second festive special, called MasterChef Meets Strictly Festive Extravaganza, was due to feature Strictly Come Dancing ’s Amy Dowden, Gorka Marquez , Kai Widdrington and Nancy Xu, with Motsi Mabuse setting a challenge.
