Christine McGuinness says she’s ‘relieved’ as she becomes latest star to be eliminated from Celebrity MasterChef – after model was praised for detailing autism struggles

As a compassionate observer of life, I must commend Christine McGuinness for her courage and determination. Her journey through the MasterChef kitchen, despite her struggles with food due to her autism, is a testament to her resilience and willpower. It’s heartwarming to see someone facing their fears head-on, especially when those fears are as common yet challenging as food sensitivities.

Christine McGuinness became the latest star to be eliminated from Celebrity MasterChef on Tuesday.

In her contest, a 35-year-old individual encountered tough rivalry from actor Tamer Hassan, reality personality Jake Quickenden, model and socialite Emma Tynn, as well as comedian Jamie MacDonald.

After falling short of impressing judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace, Christine confessed that she felt ‘released’ rather than progressing to the next round and cooking once more.

After she received the outcome, John expressed his gratitude by saying: “Many thanks for your bravery, your delicious meals, your warm smiles, and for showing such strength.”

After leaving the location, Christine – who had been commended for sharing her battles with food due to autism – expressed her pride in herself: ‘I’m incredibly proud of myself for venturing into a kitchen I wasn’t accustomed to and attempting to prepare dishes I’ve never made before.’

‘But I was well out of my comfort zone, that was too much of a stretch for me.

‘I’m happy I’ve done it, but I’m relieved I don’t have to keep practicing in front of the nation.’

In this episode’s initial assignment, Christine was asked to prepare a meal using white sausages. As a result, she created a scrumptious breakfast, including tomatoes, bacon, and eggs.

In the second round, the contestant transformed her kids’ favorite meal, chicken nuggets and fries, into an innovative dish, while another participant prepared a delectable tiramisu for dessert.

Nevertheless, the meal didn’t impress John and Gregg; their accompanying dipping sauce missed the mark, and the tiramisu stirred some doubt as it seemed devoid of alcohol.

After receiving praise from the Celebrity MasterChef judges, Christine shared her personal experiences about her family’s challenges with food due to autism, which aired on Monday’s episode.

Paddy McGuinness, his former spouse, and they together have a family consisting of ten-year-old twins Leo and Penelope, and a seven-year-old named Felicity. All three children have received diagnoses related to developmental conditions.

In 2021, Christine discovered that she had both autism and ADHD, which explained why she behaved uniquely compared to others during her childhood years, as she had long been puzzled about this difference.

In the initial phase of the program, the television host, along with other contestants, were given a challenge to prepare a meal using an unexpected ingredient.

While diligently cooking, Christine confessed: ‘I realize that suppressing the sensory challenges posed by the aromas, sounds, tactile feelings of the food, and preventing myself from becoming overpowered by it, will require a considerable amount of energy.’

Autism encompasses a variety of conditions marked by difficulties in social interactions, recurring behaviors or routines, problems with verbal and nonverbal communication.

Later, Christine clarified to Judge Gregg Wallace, who is a parent to a four-year-old son named Sid with autism, why she decided to participate in the show even though she has sensory challenges.

For your kids, who are all on the autism spectrum, found food particularly challenging. However, the most effective method to conquer this hurdle is by gradually exposing them to food – touching, smelling, and tasting it.

In my thirties, I am autistic and still maintain a simple, beige-based diet. Coming here and attempting to feel more at ease with food, especially in such a stressful environment like the kitchen, requires me to push myself even further. I aspire to do more and expand my culinary horizons.

In the second round, contestants prepared dishes for a dinner party. However, a Real Housewife of Cheshire shared that because of her health issue and less-than-stellar social abilities, she chose to eat at home with her children, rather than attend the gathering.

After the program, Christine mentioned: “I never cook for others except for me and my kids. Our meals are quite simple, primarily consisting of basic foods – items like bread, plain pasta, and chicken. We find these simple dishes quite enjoyable.”

‘But I don’t think many of our friends or family would like to come for a dinner party!’. 

She continued: ‘Walking into the MasterChef kitchen for the first time was petrifying I have never been so nervous! 

“When it came to memorizing a dance routine for The Full Monty and learning Olympic sports on The Games, I found the MasterChef kitchen much more intimidating!”
