After an inquiry into Wallace's behavior revealed claims against two separate people, Torode said on Monday: "I am the individual who is alleged to have used racial language on one occasion."

John Torode has been fired from BBC's 'MasterChef' following an investigation that substantiated an allegation he used racist language.

John Torode has been sacked as MasterChef presenter after an allegation against him using "an extremely offensive racist term" was upheld. In an Instagram statement on Tuesday, the TV chef said he had "no recollection" of what he is accused of, and said he had hoped to have some say in his exit.
