A man reported to be a TV chef has been arrested on suspicion of sexual assault.

The media personality was arrested last month in connection with an alleged sexual offence, which reportedly occurred in London in January.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman said a man “was arrested on suspicion of rape, sexual assault and causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent on Saturday, 11 April”.

“A female victim is being supported by specially trained officers. The man has been released on bail as enquiries continue.”

The allegations were first reported by the Telegraph on Monday. The newspaper said the man was questioned in custody for several hours.
