  • Gregg Wallace, the axed MasterChef presenter, was the "most requested" celebrity on the personalised video platform Cameo for Valentine's Day 2026.
  • He topped Cameo's Top 100 Leaderboard with 101 points, offering personalised video messages for £36.80, often delivered within 60 minutes.
  • Wallace was removed from MasterChef in November 2024 after an investigation upheld 45 out of 83 complaints against him, including inappropriate sexual language and humour.
