Celebrity MasterChef's full cast and premiere date revealed

A Gold Logie winner, Olympic champion, pop star and a very famous chef’s daughter are among the stars competing in Celebrity MasterChef.

From Olympians to comedians, actors and the daughter of an international celebrity – the next instalment of MasterChef will certainly spice things up a bit.

With the series set to premiere on Sunday October 10, the Celebrity MasterChef cast comprise 10 familiar faces who will be showcasing their home cooking skills to battle it out for the top prize.

And some of them may surprise you.

Gold Logie winner Rebecca Gibney joins Offspring actor Matt Le Nevez, renowned fashion designer Collette Dinnigan, swimming legend Ian Thorpe and singer Dami Im.

Radio personality Chrissie Swan will also star, along with comedian Dilruk Jayasinha, professional football player Archie Thompson and AFL champion Nick Riewoldt.

Perhaps most surprisingly, the daughter of internationally renowned chef Gordon Ramsay, 19-year-old Tilly Ramsay, rounds out the cast. We feel she has a slight advantage, with a multi-Michelin starred chef in the family.

The full cast of Celebrity MasterChef has been announced today.

Judges Melissa Leong, Andy Allen and Jock Zonfrillo will return to the helm to discover which celebrity has the most talent in the kitchen outside of their sparkling career.

Channel 10 first announced that a season of Celebrity MasterChef was on the way earlier this year, prompting wild fan speculation about who could feature in the kitchen.

Rumours about the cast put to bed

The cast announcement came after comedian Tommy Little appeared to “let slip” that he had signed on to the show.

Little was chatting to Fifi, Fev & Nick on Fox FM when he was seemingly “duped” by Brendan Fevola.

The former AFL star told Tommy that he had signed on to Celebrity MasterChef in a bid to get Tommy to admit that he was also a contestant.

“We announced that this morning at 7 o’clock, and I’ll be on it, and the only reason I did it is because I saw your name on there,” Fev told Tommy. “So we’ll be going head to head brother.”

A hesitant Tommy replied: “I’ve been told I’m not allowed to talk about it yet. Did you really announce it this morning?”

“Yeah,” Fev said.

“Obviously I’m going to win if I’m up against you,” Tommy told Fev, before once again asking, “Are we actually allowed to talk about it yet because I was told I’m not allowed to talk about it?”

It was then that co-host Fifi Box jumped in and revealed to Tommy that he had been hoodwinked.

“Tommy, he’s joking, he’s not on it, he didn’t make an announcement,” Fifi said. “He’s tricked you.”

It turned out to be a red herring, with the Project star nowhere to be seen on the cast announcement.

Celebrity MasterChef airs 7:30pm Sunday October 10 on Ten.
