A TV chef has been arrested on suspicion of rape and sexual assault.
Following a complaint to police, he was detained last month.
The Telegraph has revealed that the suspect was arrested on suspicion of rape, sexual assault and causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent.
After being taken into custody, the chef was questioned for several hours at a central London police station and later released on bail.
A spokesperson for Scotland Yard said a woman was being supported by specially trained officers while the investigation into the complaint carried on.
The alleged incident is said to have taken place in London in January – she is understood to have gone to the police last month.
The man was then arrested on April 11.
According to the publication, he has appeared on a number of programmes.
