I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! star Grace Dent will reportedly be announced as Gregg Wallace's replacement on MasterChef in a matter of days.The former presenter and judge stepped away from the BBC cookery show after a string of women came forward to make claims about him.

As a result of the claims, Banijay UK, the show's production company, revealed it would be launching an external review looking at historical allegations of misconduct.

Gregg has continued to deny any wrongdoing, with his lawyers insisting "it is entirely false that he engages in behaviour of a sexually harassing nature." Despite this, he's reportedly set to be replaced on the show by food critic Grace Dent.The 51 year old has a plethora of experience under her belt, having written about food for years - she's also appeared on MasterChef regularly as a critic, with stints on mainstream TV on Strictly Come Dancing and I'm A Celeb, reports the Mirror.

The BBC is expected to announce Grace as Gregg's replacement by the end of the week, The Sun reports. Grace would join forces with his former co-host, John Torode, for a new era of MasterChef.
