John Torode Admits He And Gregg Wallace “Don’t Hang Out” Much Outside Work. The ‘MasterChef’ co-stars are a formidable pairing on screen, but the 56-year-old star admitted while they have “the odd lunch”, they’re “so different” as people away from the cameras.
He told the Metro newspaper’s Sixty Seconds column: “It’s an interesting dynamic because we’re so different. But that’s what makes it work so well.
“We’re very independent from each other. We don’t hang out with each other outside work apart from the odd lunch.
“We have our own tastes in clothes, music and art and I suppose we can disagree on all those things, like we do on a lot of the things we taste.”
However, their love for food is one aspect of their lives that brings them closer together.
John added: “Something we do agree on is that when food is cooked really well and presented beautifully, it’s a fantastic thing
“And that’s been the success of the show, I think.”
John Torode Admits He And Gregg Wallace “Don’t Hang Out” Much Outside Work. The pair – who recently received MBEs – have been working together on ‘MasterChef’ since 2005, and John insisted neither of them have changed that much since they first appeared on TV, although he did mention his co-star’s fitness drive.
He said: “I think we’re both the same. I suppose Gregg will say he got a bit chubby and now he’s all about getting fit. But I think we’re both up and down.
“After 18 years of eating lots of high carb, high fat, high salt exotic foods, it starts to take its toll a little bit. So staying fit is important.”
Opening up on his change of lifestyle in 2020 – which saw him lose four stone – Gregg explained: “I’d never suggest a diet that was going to leave you hungry. It’s about filling yourself up with good food with good ingredients and exercise.
“I know I look good now compared to those days when I had a beer belly, but I also feel incredible. I feel like I have knocked at least 10 years off.”
