Meghan Markle\u2019s MasterChef cameo slammed as \u2018an absolute joke\u2019 (Image: PA)<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n Prince Harry<\/a> and Meghan Markle<\/a> may be calling their Australia<\/a> visit private, but their packed schedule suggests anything but, with the couple darting between engagements in Melbourne, and celebrity chef Jameson Stocks<\/a> already voicing strong opinions on Meghan\u2019s latest move.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n In an exclusive chat with the Daily Express<\/a>, Jameson Stocks weighed in – and he didn\u2019t hold back.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Read more:<\/strong> Meghan Markle can\u2019t ditch royal habits in very telling Australia moment <\/a><\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong> Debate whether members of the public should call the Duchess of Sussex ‘Meg’ <\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Meghan Markle made a surrpise appearance on MasterChef Australia (Image: Masterchef Australia )<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n Jameson has been vocal about Meghan\u2019s growing interest in the food world – from her artisanal jam range<\/a> to her Netflix<\/a> series With Love, Meghan<\/a>, and has now delivered a blistering verdict on her reported TV appearance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n He admitted that his initial reaction was disbelief. \u201cHonestly, at first I thought it had to be a late April Fools\u2019 joke or that someone had Photoshopped her into the picture.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u201cThen it hit me that it was real, and I couldn\u2019t help thinking what an absolute joke it was. It feels like the MasterChef brand is going to become a bit of a joke as well. I have no idea why she\u2019s a judge or what qualifies her for the role, unless the contestants are just going to be slicing up some fruit and arranging it on a plate.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Jameson\u2019s comments strike at the heart of what has made MasterChef such a global success – credibility, skill, and years of culinary experience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ![\"meghan](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/106\/590x\/secondary\/Copy-of-Landscape-53-6864048.jpg?r=1776323501292\" "\\"meghan")
