Bake Off legend Sandi Toksvig bluntly reveals the former co-star she no longer speaks to and why she left the show

BAKE Off legend Sandi Toksvig bluntly revealed the former co-star she no longer speaks to and explained why she ultimately left the show.

The 66-year-old hosted the show for three years alongside Noel Fielding, 51.

Sandi left the show back in 2020 and was replaced by Matt Lucas and later Alison Hammond.

The star has now revealed her real reasons behind leaving the show.

In an interview with where she was asked if she was still friends with her former co-host Noel, Sandi bluntly said: "No."

She then opened up about why she left the show saying: "It's not for me. I walked away from the biggest paycheque of my life, but that's fine. 

"I'd never watched it. I still haven't watched it. I didn't understand it. 

"Cakes are readily available in the shops. I didn't enjoy the process. There was this showbiz thing you'd made it with Bake Off, it was a big show, getting a lot of attention. 

"But my wife Deb said, 'It's not making you happy'."

Sandi still speaks to Prue Leith but is barely is barely in contact with Paul Hollywood due to his busy schedule.

Earlier this year, Prue reacted to a comment Sandi made about the show where she joked that her brain was turning to mush from "watching meringues dry."

Prue, 83 has dismissed Sandi's comment, saying that they actually had a great time in the green room and she wasn't 'really bored'.
