The mighty cooking series,\u00a0Celebrity MasterChef<\/a> is on its way back, with 20 more familiar faces trading in their usual day job for a challenge in the kitchen, battling against one another to create the best gourmet meals.<\/p>\n

Fashion designer and judge on the The Great British Sewing Bee, Patrick Grant is swapping his Savile Row suits for a simple white apron as a contestant in this year\u2019s run, along with stars including Strictly Come Dancing\u2019s Johannes Radebe and Loose Women regular Penny Lancaster.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s all you need to know about Patrick Grant as he joins the Celebrity MasterChef 2021 line-up<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As the head of bespoke tailoring company Norton & Sons, Patrick Grant knows a thing or two about attention to detail, which might bring him some luck in the world of fine dining.<\/p>\n

Born in Edinburgh, he studied material sciences at university before embarking on a career in marketing. He then had a change of heart, pivoting to business and fashion with an MBA degree from the Sa\u00efd Business School in Oxford.<\/p>\n

From there, he has invested in several businesses and fashion brands, as well as serving as a creative director for Barbour\u2019s Beacon Heritage line in 2012.<\/p>\n

However, most of us know Patrick best from his role as a judge on The Great British Sewing Bee, which he has starred in since its first series in 2013. He is joined by fellow judge Esme Young and host Joe Lycett.<\/p>\n

Patrick currently lives in rural Lancashire, having traded in the hustle and bustle of London. He was in a relationship with fellow fashion designer Katie Hillier from 2007 to 2015 \u2013 but nowadays, he keeps much of his personal life away from the eyes of the public.<\/p>

Celebrity MasterChef 2021 is set to air on BBC One later this year. To find out what else is on TV, check out our\u00a0TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0or visit our hub for more\u00a0Entertainment<\/a>\u00a0news.<\/strong><\/p>\n
