BAKE Off’s Paul Hollywood admitted “I don’t have a heart” as he made his return to the Channel 4 show after splitting with his girlfriend Summer.
The baker was back with his co-judge Prue Leith putting the 13 new bakers to the test in the famous white tent.
They kicked off the show with a hilarious homage to The Wizard of Oz, with Noel Fielding dressed as Dorothy and Paul as Tin Man.
Paul says: “Hi Noel, hi munchkin. I don’t have a heart.”
Noel quips: “Yeah, that’s not going to come as a big shock to people.”
The 53-year-old has been embroiled in a bitter break up from his former barmaid girlfriend over the summer.
The Sun exclusively revealed earlier this month that Summer and Paul had split after the Bake Off star demanded she signed legal paperwork banning her from ever discussing their romance.
His request sparked an explosive bust-up, with Summer refusing to put pen to paper on the document and instead leaving the home they shared in Kent.
They have since been locked in a furious row with the beauty even threatening to sue Paul for his claims she deliberately “courted” media attention.
Summer posted on Instagram: “I am very disappointed and distressed by false and highly defamatory statements that Paul has made about me online since our break-up.
“I have had no alternative but to instruct my solicitors Brett Wilson LLP to pursue legal proceedings against Paul in order to obtain vindication.
“I have never courted publicity over my relationship with Paul and I am deeply disappointed that our relationship has ended in this way.”
Paul has refused her access to luxury items including a £100,000 Range Rover and £9,000 hot tub, bought for her as gifts.
He ended his marriage to wife Alexandra for 24-year-old Summer after meeting in their local pub.
