MasterChef star John Torode in hospital after mystery accident on Boxing Day
Celebrity chef John is currently resting up in St Mary’s hospital in Paddington after an accident
JOHN Torode has been hospitalised following a mystery accident on Boxing Day.
The MasterChef presenter was cared for by staff at St Mary’s hospital in London after he was admitted.
His girfriend Lisa Faulkner revealed John was unwell, posting a picture of him from his bed on the ward.
She wrote next to the picture: “Thank you so very much to the lovely docs and nurses yesterday #stmaryshospitalpaddington for looking after my @johntorodecooks who is very bruised but doing well!”
Lisa explained that John had a “lucky escape” and her page was soon flooded with comments from fans wanting to wish John well.
One commented: “Oh my goodness, get well soon John.”
Another fan wrote: “Thinking of you, feel better soon!”
John had been enjoying at day out at Claridges with Lisa when the mystery accident happened.
The last post on John’s Instagram was of Lisa at the swanky hotel, with the caption: “She is now happy as a happy thing on happy days.”
Prior to this, the pair spent a fun packed evening at Winter Wonderland just Christmas started.
John shared a loved up picture of the couple on one of the rides, telling his followers they'd had: “The best Christmas Eve Eve”
Lisa and John met when she won Celebrity MasterChef in 2010.
The pair stayed in touch and started dating after Lisa split with her husband Chris Hoghill in 2012.
Chef John had split with his wife of four years, Jessica, a year before this.
The couple live together in North London and while you might think their relationship would be fiery in the kitchen, the pair are actually very relaxed when it comes to the cooking.
John said: “Lisa’s a Japanese freak so she has her own section in the kitchen. I’m the Asian bloke in our house.
“Are there too may chefs in the kitchen? No, never.
“It is surprising when people ask me this, but I reckon it is to do with our relationship. If you are in any way or at any stage fighting over territory, then you’re probably not in the right relationship.
“One of us will be making something in the kitchen while the other will sit and chat and have a glass of wine. One of us will wash up and the other will take the bin out.”
