Christine McGuinness - Model & TV Personality
“I really wanted to push myself and become more comfortable around food, being autistic I do have sensory issues around food. I can find the smell, the taste and textures quite overwhelming. I am a mummy to three incredible children, also autistic, and I want them to explore foods more confidently. Doing Celebrity MasterChef is definitely the most daunting thing I have ever done! My favourite thing to cook is a ‘scouse’ which is a Liverpool hotpot. I love doing this because it is a recipe that has been passed down from my nan.”

“I have always been a huge fan of the show and it was such an honour to be asked to participate. I love food and am a keen cook and have never worked in a professional kitchen, so this was a challenge I was delighted to accept. I love eating spicy food and have a few family recipes I’ve made since I was little like a Nigerian-inspired chicken with a hot tomato sauce. We cook a lot together, it’s such a bonding thing to do at home.”
