Former Pussycat Doll and Celebrity Masterchef champion Kimberly Wyatt sprung a surprise on an Ely family when she turned up at their home to hold a crash course in barbecuing.
Kimberly surprised Daniel Baynham and his family with a barbecue lesson.
Her visit was organised by the Tesco Flame Academy after it spotted a tweet from Daniel in need of some cooking tips.
The Flame Academy crew pulled up to Daniel’s house with Kimberly and a sous-chef in tow.
After the surprise introductions, Kimberly got started by demonstrating how to prepare barbecue dishes for summer. She then took to the grill to cook up a smoky storm of dishes for the guests before joining them at the table.
Kimberly said: “I’m from Missouri and back home barbecuing isn’t just popular, it’s a way of life.
“I’m thrilled that I could put the skills I learned on Masterchef into practice and surprise Daniel. The look on his face when he opened the door was priceless.
