JOHN Torode has revealed what could “tear his family apart” in a rare admission about his home life with Lisa Faulkner.
The husband and wife duo like to keep their married lives private from prying eyes but John has now spilled all on what could leave the couple in a blazing row over Christmas time.
John and Lisa discussed family tensions on an extra special festive edition of their ITV morning programme, John and Lisa’s Weekend Kitchen.
In the show, the couple discussed Christmas time and looked back over some of their favourite recipes from throughout the year.
As they spoke whilst playing a game of Uno and preparing a vegetable lasagne, John joked about how seriously the couple take the game.
John said: “We’re going to play Uno in a minute!”
But he then confessed: “No, that’s one of those games that really takes the family apart.
“When you get that Pick Up Four, people get really angry, don’t they?!”
Lisa then humorously quipped at her hubby: “They do, John, don’t they?”
Firing back, the MasterChef star then said: “Okay, Lisa, that’s not very nice.”
The light-hearted banter between the pair comes amid a difficult time with John’s MasterChef co-star Gregg Wallace.
Gregg has been forced to step back from MasterChef amid allegations of misconduct.
The show’s production firm, Banijay UK, launched a probe last month after several women complained that the TV judge had groped or harassed them.
Gregg was scheduled to appear on the BBC several times this Christmas but these episodes were axed.
The host stepped down from the show after the multiple complaints emerged.
He faces allegations from at least 13 people across a range of shows over a 17-year period — with others coming forward since the scandal broke.
Despite strongly denying any wrongdoing Gregg is said to have resigned himself to getting the sack – as we previously revealed.
Instead, John will now be joined by food critic and regular MasterChef guest Grace Dent as a full-time judge for the next Celebrity run of the programme.
Lisa has already given her backing to Grace working with her husband when she reacted to a post confirming her appointment earlier this month.
Wasting no time in sharing her excitement about food critic Grace’s new job, Lisa – who married John in 2019 – commented on the post on her husband’s grid.
Alongside three ‘raising hands’ emojis and one red heart, she said: “Go Grace!”
