The musician branded the dad-of-two a “tubby, bald-headed, ill-mannered bully” and criticised the TV judge for “humiliating” his wife Penny Lancaster when she appeared on the show Celebrity MasterChef in 2021.
A throwback clip of Rod’s wife and Loose Women star Penny on the cooking show has resurfaced, showing her embarrassment over her fried calamari and tartare sauce in 2021.
As she prepared her dish, Penny confidently stated: “I’m doing surprisingly well compared to what I imagined how I’d be doing. I don’t want to slip up now.”
However, things took a turn for the worse when it came to tasting her dish. Upon serving, Penny noted: “That tartare sauce doesn’t look like the tartare sauce I’d normally have.”
Gregg Wallace informed her: “You used whole eggs instead of egg yolks.”
Later in the episode, Penny managed to bounce back from her earlier mishap, earning praise for her chicken and coconut curry, green papaya chutney, grated apple, turnip and carrot salad, as well as the coconut rice.
Gregg complimented her by saying: “I found myself going from bowl to bowl to bowl and finding it difficult to stop, you have had what we call in the industry a very good day.”
However, the kitchen chaos returned in the episode where she was eliminated. Penny struggled with her timings, prompting Gregg to comment: “Mate, we can’t be 10 minutes late.”
