Fury as ‘childish' BBC axe HALF of shamed Gregg Wallace's recipes from web in ‘stupid cancellation' after MasterChef axe

HALF of Gregg Wallace's recipes have vanished from the BBC Food website — leaving many of its users steaming. Six of the fallen grocer's 11 dish ideas have been axed since he was sacked from MasterChef last month. 3 Half of Gregg Wallace's recipes have vanished from the BBC Food website including his raspberry pavlova Credit: Getty 3 Gregg's pork and apple burger recipe is one of the dishes that remains on the BBC site His 'comforting' special sausage and lentil soup, 'delightfully simple' mince pie ice-cream and a raspberry pavlova are gone. A raspberry marinated rack of lamb and a leek and potato soup are also missing since a damning report into the 60-year-old's behaviour. One site user railed at 'another stupid cancellation by the BBC'. They added: 'Whatever you think of the guy, it was hardly his recipes that were the problem.' Another, Claire, added: 'Seems childish. I'm never going to stop listening to Michael Jackson.' Ed Campbell added online: 'Can't we separate the art from the artist?' All the dishes had featured on shows Wallace fronted, as did some still on the website such as his pork and apple burger. Nearly 50 women made complaints about Wallace but the worst allegations, including groping and flashing, were not upheld. Last month, he told The Sun: 'I'm not a groper, a sex pest or a flasher. 'So much has been perceived incorrectly.' The BBC said it was standard practice to update BBC Food website recipes and those from a range of chefs had been taken down recently. 3 Wallace was sacked from MasterChef last month Credit: PA

Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet respond to breakup rumors as they reunite at Budapest coffee shop

KYLIE Jenner and Timothee Chalamet have responded to breakup rumors as they reunited at a Budapest coffee shop. It comes as the Hollywood power couple recently had fans speculating they could be going their separate ways after some "tell tale signs". 6 Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet confirmed they were very much still together with this picture Credit: Instagram/budapestbaristas_buda 6 It came after couple recently have sparked speculation they've split Credit: Getty 6 The Hollywood power couple have been dating since 2023 Credit: Getty Kylie, 28, and Timothee, 29, who have been dating since 2023, put any rumors of a break-up to bed when they reunited after 45 days apart. The last time the couple were spotted together was on a yacht on July 5, in St Tropez, France. But now they are back together, after the youngest Kardashians star went to visit her man in Budapest, where he is currently filming Dune 3. Kylie and Timothee thrilled two employees at a local coffee shop, when they took a picture with them. Proving they were definitely still a couple, they posed happily with the star struck fans. Posting on the Instagram page for Budapest Baristas, one of the employees wrote: "Today Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet just walked in to our coffeeshop at Buda we were so in confusion, we could barley concentrate, but i think you can see on our face." The happy couple faced split rumours after Timothee was noticeably absent from Kylie's 28th birthday recently. She then posted on Instagram that she had been listening to break-up anthems, including Jeff Buckley's Lover, You Should've Come Over and Labi Saffre's Crying, Laughing, Loving, Lying. Fans recognised she did this just before after her split with Travis Scott, and believed it was a sign that she has called time with Timothee. Sharing theories on Reddit, one fan wrote: 'Obviously could mean nothing, but I don't post break up songs casually myself. Hoping it's nothing though!!' Timothee Chalamet's sister Pauline throws new jab at Kylie Jenner as she slams 'wealth' in furious post This prompted another to write: 'Oof, the first sign of her breakup with Travis was random breakup songs. Could be nothing, she's still following him… 'Edit: yeah I interpret the song as a man messing up, but he still wants to be with his (ex?) lover. Definitely a yearning thing.' However, others thought it might not be a sign of a split, with one noting: 'Could actually be a suggestion by Timothee especially since a Jeff Buckley documentary just came out today.' 'But then she posted the 2nd breakup song from another artist (she actually posted it twice to tell us she's actually listening to it 😭)' noted another. "Not saying they did, but everything is calculated with Kylie. She knows what people are going to assume." "this song has been trending on tiktok for at least the last month," noted another. "i don't think it's anything more than that" But thanks to their Budapest selfie, fans will be pleased to know that Hollywood's young power couple, are very much together.
