The real reason why this Masterchef Australia judge is being trolled online

George Calombaris has been mercilessly mocked by fans following his latest appearance on MasterChef last Sunday.

The celebrity chef’s sunglasses and bomber jacket combo provided much entertainment, with Twitter uses comparing him to a “gangster” and “night club bouncer.”

While fans were quick to mock the judge for his outfit, it seems as though George’s choice to wear sunglasses may have had less to do with trying to look be down with the kids, and more to do with the fact he had undergone surgery on his eye the week prior due to a squash injury.

Fans were also quick to point out that it was George’s first return to the A-League stadium since he assaulted a 19-year-old fan during a game in May 2017.

The MasterChef star lost his cool when the fan taunted him over the underpaid wages of his restaurant employees.
