Unkind of me but can't help laughing as girlfriend has given him the elbow now his divorce has been finalised. Apparently she refused to sign a gagging order that would have prevented her speaking about him. Ker -ching! How unreasonable. Nevertheless, I predict a monster magazine wedding in the future and much, much more to read about life with lovely Paul. And cake too, of course 🎂

Have you only just realised this?

He’s a grade A bellend

longwayoff · 03/08/2019 07:04

Not at all @yawninfinitum, I haven't been shacked up with him for however long, she has. What can the attraction be given, as you rightly state, he is a noticeable Grade A bellend.

Total bellend.

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 03/08/2019 07:15

His ex wife always seemed so lovely- absolute fool

BertrandRussell · 03/08/2019 07:17

Some of his recipes are brilliant. In particular his sticky ginger cake and ginger biscuits.

cantfindname · 03/08/2019 07:21

He is an egotistical prick. Not even attractive any more, except for his eyes.

FWIW he isn't even a great baker. For someone in the trade I was shocked he had never heard of or met Jim Lahey and tried his method. I know amateur bakers who are far far more knowledgeable than PH.

fraxion · 03/08/2019 07:23

Twit? Total arsehole more like. He gives me the creeps.

boughtnotbrought · 03/08/2019 07:25

I think this is a grotesque understatement, the man is a massive knob Wink

OtraCosaMariposa · 03/08/2019 07:27

You've only just realised?

Jurassicmuma · 03/08/2019 07:28

Well yes he comes across as an arrogant prick but I love a silver fox and can I'd love someone to bake loads of goodies for me. I'd massage his ego for a bit

JudgeRindersMinder · 03/08/2019 07:28

Total knob! I just read the headline and had a snigger to myself!
I hope hi sweetie now ex wife finds the happiness she deserves

MaxiPaddy · 03/08/2019 07:28

Ugh, he's such a fucking pig.

Ponoka7 · 03/08/2019 07:29

I hope Summer isn't going to play the victim. She's already saying things, like, "the trust has gone" and "how could he treat me like this".

She should have seen how he can treat people, when she started dating a married man, with a son only six years younger than her. She wasn't his first affair, either.

Her behaviour after the public row with his wife was disgusting.

But yes, he's a bellend. I can't get passed a 53 year old blocking, their partner on SM after a row.

Here starts the succession of young and embarrassing girlfriends.

I feel sorry for his Son.

Raver84 · 03/08/2019 07:30

Massive bell end. I hope she sell some real dirt on him that will remove him from TV forever. He treated his wife appallingly. I don't live far from him and by most accounts he's a not a nice person.

From the article the order would also extend to talking to her family and friends about them too, including about their sex life.

Grin cos everyone is just waiting to find that out!

What an odious little man with a vastly inflated ego!

Windygate · 03/08/2019 07:38

Cantfindaname I agree PH is a nob and I think he's GF is just as bad. However in his City Breaks series PH did a section about Jim Leahy and his no knead bread.

YouLikeTheBadOnesToo · 03/08/2019 07:41

I think ‘twit’ is being kind tbh.

FagashJackie · 03/08/2019 07:43

You lot can even make a thread about PH about baking.

longwayoff · 03/08/2019 07:44

Good luck to his ex wife and son, from the bits and pieces I've read about him, he sounds like an utter pig and they're well rid of him. Oh well, reading about 'my hell with PH' will flog a few magazines.

Also live near him and had the interesting joy of being behind him in a supermarket. Am terrible with famous people so was thinking I knew him/should I say Hello? etc, when I realised he was looking at me, grinning and quite clearly flashing me what he was buying...his own book Hmm. The eye contact I had with the cashier was as close to a mutual eye roll as was possible at the time.

Anyone who has ever met/worked with/sold things to him always, without fail, points out what a lovely woman his wife is and what a complete arse he is.

FagashJackie · 03/08/2019 07:45

In fairness he has been in a relationship with a very young woman. Grim.
