Lisa Faulkner and John Torode married in a fairytale wedding ceremony in Northamptonshire on Thursday, surrounded by their family and celebrity friends. But the couple are yet to go on their honeymoon, as John had a very important job to do first. The MasterChef star was out on Tuesday night to help present the Young Chef and Young Waiter Awards in central London, which has a special place in his heart as he has won the accolade himself in the past, which led onto his successful career. While on stage, John's co-host joked that he had "sacrificed his honeymoon" to be there for the event.
