Internationally renowned chef Jamie Oliver is joining MasterChef 2024 for a fun-filled two weeks, and we’ve got the first look at his time on the show.
Jamie will be testing the contestants alongside judges Andy Allen, Poh Ling Yeow, Jean-Christophe Novelli and Sofia Levin.
Ahead of Jamie’s time on MasterChef Australia 2024, Channel 10 have shared a promo video, and his parents even make a cameo.
Jamie filmed his MasterChef role in November last year and shared a post about his experience at the time. In the caption, Jamie paid tribute to late MasterChef judge Jock Zonfrillo who died in April 2023.
“With a very heavy heart I leave the @masterchefau family in the beautiful city of Melbourne after two amazing and busy weeks of filming,” Jamie began.
“This year was always going to be very very hard with the incredibly sad loss of Jock something that shocked the nation, the hole he has left is vast and irreplaceable. Jock was a one-off, a legend and a great man,” he continued.
“As they say, the show must go on, I wanted to reassure you in Aussie that I personally believe the MC Team have moved forward in a way that feels right.”
