MasterChef judge John Torode was one of three people who were honoured by Prince William at Buckingham Palace earlier today.The celebrity chef was made an MBE for his services to food and charity, while Professor Sir David MacMillan received his knighthood for services to chemistry and science.
John, 57, has written several cookbooks and appeared on ITV’s This Morning in the late 1990s before taking over as a MasterChef judge in 2005 alongside Gregg Wallace.The chef wore a navy frock to the occasion as he attended the Palace ceremony.
Meanwhile, Prof MacMillan was awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 2021 for the development of “asymmetric organocatalysis”, a breakthrough that allowed chemists to come up with new ways to put molecules together.
Prince William was the representative from the royal family giving out the awards on Tuesday. He wore a navy suit along with some golden braids—better known as an aiguillette—across his right shoulder.The reason he wore the aiguillette is because he is an Aide-de-Camp to The Queen—an honor bestowed upon him in 2013.The musician, actor and film-maker known as Rapman was also made an MBE in honour of his services to music and drama.
