Gregg Wallace’s latest claim.

icanhandthemback I think you must have missed my point. Accurate diagnosis of the neuro diverse conditions is required rather than self diagnosis which can be inaccurate.
Sometimes people are just people and there's no need to pathologise them.

He has obviously got mental health issues, anyone can see that. Although people talk of being aware of such issues don't they like tearing into someone that has.

Probably gets women through his confidence his belief in himself and that’s he’s a ‘great catch’ if you think you’re great you give off very different vibes than someone shy and retiring also through his money and power

As to his diagnosis self or medically let’s all give him the benefit of the doubt and agree he’s autistic how come 99% of the time his autism doesn't affect his wearing of trousers but suddenly when a woman is nearby, they are annoying him and off they come. If it wasn’t so sad for the affected women it would be completely laughable
🤣🤣🤣

I often thing these type of " characters" must have friends in the right places.

Devoid of any talent or professional training they rise to the top.

Aveline, it is an interesting topic but I will say no more as I have been put in my place.

Sorry. I didn't mean to put you or anyone in their place. It's a huge subject with many nuances. Best to talk about in real life as it's hard to convey it all in this format

It wasn't you Aveline, I'm very interested in it.

Doesn't matter what is your 'diagnosis', abusing other people is not your 'therapy'.

Yes it is a terrible message to send to women that there is an excuse for this behaviour.

Absolutely Bluebelle 😂🤣😂

I haven't heard of this before nor read the whole thread but .... but .... but why am I supposed to be interested in whether some tedious middle-aged man wears underpants or not?

I absolutely agree with that.

Try reading the thread and you might get an inkling as to why we’re commenting.
None of us is interested Gregg’s pants!

You might if he displayed what was underneath to you, then tried to claim it was because he's autistic.

He's just a dirty old man who's been flattered by public attention and celebrity. Lots of covering up of his grubby behaviour by agents and TV companies cashing in on his apparent popularity.

Its not a particularly long thread be well worth you having a read then you could keep up If you re not interested you can move on to something more stimulating for you No one’s really expecting you to be interested if you’re not why comment just flip past the thread

I absolutely agree Aveline, lots of people will have known about this behaviour and either ignored or enabled it. There will be another 'Gregg Wallace'.

I have never watched Masterchef, just seeing clips and trailers was enough to make me feel uncomfortable with Wallace. He's just one of those people that made my skin crawl for no reason I could put my finger on.

Greg Wallace needs to understand that while some of his behaviour may well be because of autism, the dirty old man behaviour will actually be down to his personality. He came across as a bully to me in Masterchef and Mr P was constantly surprised that one of the contestants didn't lamp him one when he was roaring at them to hurry up.

It's the fact that he's made one excuse after another for his behaviour. Anything to get out of accepting responsibility for his own actions.

For some reason, Gregg Wallace must think he’s attractive?🤔 The bald head is an instant turn off! He’s not quite George Clooney.…🙄

I've tried to do some sort of a link to Marina Hydes's column about Greg Wallace in the Guardian yesterday that was absolutely hysterically funny.

Thank you, Labradora that's very funny.

Brilliant! Thank you, Labradora

Thanks for Marina Hyde

Is it true he's been rushed to hospital with a suspected heart attack from all of the stress he's been put through? ( poor dab )
