Hell’s Kitchen reject Grant Bovey has questioned Marco Pierre White’s reasoning when he questioned Grant’s lack of humility in the kitchen.
Talking to Fern Britton and Phillip Schofield on This Morning, he said: “Marco was encouraging me to be the leader. He would say, ‘Grant, we need leadership in the kitchen, you carry on, you’re doing a sound job’ so I did carry on doing that…and clearly that led me to be sacked.”
Anthea Turner broke down in tears last night as her busband, Grant Bovey got sacked from ITV’s Hell’s Kitchen.
Marco Pierre White sacked Grant after saying that he was not a team player and the kitchen was not big enough for two bosses.
Marco said: He added: “In service you preferred to sink than ask for help – you are not a team player, that’s what you’ve proven to me tonight. You’re a leader, you’re a boss – that kitchen is not big enough for two bosses. I am the boss of Hell’s Kitchen.”
Grant said afterwards: “I’m obviously disappointed… I thought things were going remarkably well.” Speaking about who he’d like to win, he said: “Clearly I’d like Anthea to do very w
Hell’s Kitchen stirred up some powerful emotions in the men last night, as Grant Bovey and Bruce Grobbelaar broke down in tears.

Hell’s Kitchen contestant Anthea Turner has ended up in a different team from her hubby Grant Bovey for tonight’s show and has come up with a novel way to make sure he isn’t up to par for the challenge.
Anthea, told her team mates: “Don’t worry — I know how to take my husband’s batteries out and render him useless the next day.”
She added: “Needs must — this is a competition!”
Last night Grant claimed his wife’s plan was already working.
Anthea Turner’s husband Grant Bovey – who won praise from fearsome chef Marco Pierre White for his fish dish in the first show – has apparently been trying to earn extra brownie points by staying behind to do the washing up.
The Press Association reports that of the eight contestants, only three stayed behind after service to tidy up, and Grant’s wife Anthea wasn’t one of them. Grant said,
“When service finished three of us stayed behind to clear up” adding,
“The end of service came and there was such a relief that five people thought it was appropriate to down tools and go back to their quarters … something told me that Marco would be annoyed if you left your station like that.”
Wow, I wonder if Anthea’s back hurt his knife?? Read more & comment »
