Things are getting hot, hot, hot in the Bake Off kitchen, with reports that none of the stars are getting along! According to insiders, tensions are running skyhigh between the different personalities as they struggle to find a common bond.

The new line-up – cookery supremo Prue Leith, hosts Noel Fielding and Sandi Toksvig, plus Bake Off stalwart Paul Hollywood – was announced in March. But with filming for the latest series having begun, there are already claims that the team barely even talk to each other when the cameras stop rolling. And, in particular, it’s Prue, 77 – who was brought in to replace Mary Berry – and co-judge Paul, 51, who are really locking horns.

‘The feeling backstage has totally changed with the new line-up,’ an insider revealed.
