Princess Anne gave Paul Hollywood his MBE this week.
Paul Hollywood has been made an MBE for his services to baking and broadcasting
Which just goes to show that there is no shame in public life anymore. You can, like Hollywood, suddenly up and leave your shocked wife, run off with your Mexican chef television co-star, then scandalously date a barmaid half your age — and still receive one of the highest honours in the land.
I say highest. While lots of very worthy people receive MBEs, it is still the first rung on the gong ladder.
How interesting that Hollywood languishes down there on step one, while GBBO stalwarts Mary Berry and Prue Leith are both grand Dames. Arise Sir Paul of Soggy Bottom?
It’s not going to happen any time soon.
