Ex-MKR contestant Anthony Mu on trial over alleged assaults
A former My Kitchen Rules contestant is facing court, accused of assaulting children known to him over several years.
Anthony Mu, the husband of fellow contestant Clauden Uamaki-Mu, has pleaded not guilty at Richlands Magistrates Court, Queensland, to seven charges, including assault occasioning bodily harm and common assault.
The alleged victims, now adults, were known to the couple during the time of the alleged incidents, police said.
The pair competed on the 2023 season of the Channel 7 reality cooking show.
They were known for their Italian-inspired cuisine and ran a food market stall selling traditional dishes.
One alleged victim told the court on Monday she was punched, slapped and tackled through a wall by Anthony during one incident.
The trial is continuing in the Magistrates Court, with more details expected later on Monday.
