At last! The newest season of beloved cooking reality series MasterChef Australia is here and the contestants are already blowing our minds.
Even though the series is only just hitting our screens, MasterChef Australia has been filming for a few months and for judge Andy Allen, the “amazing stories” are still to come.
“There’s a lot of amazing stories on there,” Allen told POPSUGAR Australia during an interview. “But to me, the life-changing stories are still to come. The competition started for where we are right now and this is where you really see the best of the contestants who are left and that’s what I’m really excited for.”
The home chefs who are competing for their shot at $250,000 and the chance at a whole new career are fantastically diverse and each has an intriguing story to tell, from a breast cancer survivor who lost her sense of taste to a boilermaker who is a hopeless romantic at heart.
If you just can’t wait to start getting to know the MasterChef 2021 hopefuls, then check out each of their Instagram accounts to get a sneak peek at their lives and for some serious food inspiration.
