Celebrity MasterChef 2024 spoilers follow.

Celebrity MasterChef has sent home another contestant from the class of 2024, as Olympian-turned-Gladiator Harry Aikines-Aryeetey, EastEnders actor Danielle Harold, comedian Eshaan Akbar, Line of Duty actor Rochenda Sandall, and Love Island star Chloe Burrows competed to stay in the competition.

Chloe was the celebrity sent home tonight (August 20). If you want to know what went down in the kitchen to lead to her elimination, let's recap.

Judges Gregg Wallace and John Torode tasked the would-be chefs with creating a dish celebrating a secret ingredient, which led to the revelation that Harry has never eaten a pear before.

"Let me tell you, as starts go, that was not bad," Gregg told the celebs, after a round of solid critiques. Rochenda and Eshaan got particularly strong feedback; Danielle, sadly, cremated her asparagus.

They then had to make a main course and a dessert that they would serve at a dinner party, with 1 hour and 15 minutes on the clock.

Rochenda once again received great comments, with Gregg and John encouraging her to take even more risks. Eshaan disappointed with undercooked chicken, although he turned things around with a well-received dessert.

Danielle followed up with burnt asparagus with carrots that John called "an abomination", although the judges loved the rest of her main and her dessert.

Gregg and John liked Harry's main well enough, but they loved his pancake dessert. Finally, Chloe undermined her main dish with a lack of sauce, and her brownie dessert ended up more like a raw "chocolate jam", in John's words.

At the end of the second challenges, Rochenda was named a "standout", while Harry, Eshaan and Danielle were noted as having potential but just needing to work out a few issues.

Unfortunately for Chloe, her timing issues and lack of confidence meant she was the one Gregg and John sent home. She said she was disappointed but not surprised, stating: "If any of the others went, it wouldn't have been great."
