Paul Hollywood has hit out at his ex Summer Monteys Fullam, saying there's 'two sides to every story'.
Taking to Instagram, the celebrity chef wrote: "Morning all, thank you for your messages I’ve been receiving it means a lot. My silence on any matters is not a sign of weakness or agreement of what’s been said, merely I prefer a quiet life away from my day job! Take what’s read with a pinch of salt and read between the lines.

A source told The Mirror: "She was totally heartbroken that Paul would even ask her to sign such a thing and took it as an insult.
"It showed her how he really viewed their relationship."
The Bake Off star, 53, reportedly told Summer: "Why don’t you f*** off back on that horse you rode in on?"
He is also said to have restricted access to a number of presents her got her during their relationship - including a £100,000 Range Rover SVR plus a £9,000 hot tub.
A friend of Summer's added: "Paul showed his true colours in the immediate aftermath of their break-up.
"One moment he was sending her grovelling messages seemingly trying to win her back, then the next he was swearing at her and her family.
