SEETHING middle-class women of a certain age have told Gregg Wallace that the phrase he was looking for is ‘MILFs’. 

The MasterChef presenter has outraged female celebrities of a particular age and social strata by making inappropriate remarks and then, in attempting to defend himself, failing to acknowledge their recognised sexual categorisation.

Kirstie Allsopp, property presenter and fantasy figure, said: “We have a name, Gregg. Want me to spell it out to you, like you do with your needless second ‘G’?

“The implication that younger women respond well to an aggressive old bald man talking about his cock is bad enough. The assumption that common women your own age would love it is classist. But to dismiss my hot cohort? Unforgivable.

“Who does he think watches MasterChef? It’s not Gen Z. It’s women like me at their peak of desirability stuck on the sofa because they’ve got kids upstairs. It’s the women of Joseph dresses, of the Range Rover Overfinch, of Waitrose.

“Yes, we found your sexual remarks horrifying. Yes, we’ve all got previous with 40-something gym rat divorcees coming on to us in the workplace. But we are not ‘women of a certain age’. We are MILFs and proud.”

She added: “Of course, the young call us ‘Karens’ because we complain about wankers like you. Perhaps they could have a little think about that.”
