A television chef has been arrested on suspicion of rape and sexual assault following a complaint made to the Metropolitan Police.
The Telegraph reports that the man, who has appeared on multiple TV programmes, was held on suspicion of rape, sexual assault, and causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent.
He was taken into custody on Saturday, 11 April, questioned for several hours at a central London police station, and later released on bail.
The alleged offences are said to have taken place at an address in London in January.
A woman is understood to have reported the incident to police last month, with the chef arrested shortly afterwards.
A Scotland Yard spokesperson said: "A man was arrested on suspicion of rape, sexual assault and causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent on Saturday, 11 April."
"This relates to sexual offences which reportedly occurred at an address in January.
"A female victim is being supported by specially trained officers. The man has been released on bail as enquiries continue."
The investigation remains ongoing.
