Gregg Wallace has claimed he is sorry for hurting the 41 people accusing him of being 'a sex pest'.
The former Masterchef host, 60, tearfully pleaded 'I'm not a groper, a sex pest or a flasher' in his first interview since the BBC axed him following complaints from multiple women over several years.
The former TV show host added that he feels unfairly treated and claims he has been discussed in the same breath as sex offenders Jimmy Savile and Huw Edwards which he says has taken a toll on him and his family.
He told The Sun that he understood some of his actions may have offended people and 'weren’t socially acceptable' but denied being a 'wrong-un'.
The 60-year-old stepped down from the hit BBC cooking show after complaints were made about his behaviour and following a report into his conduct, 45 of 83 complaints were upheld.
