TV chef James, 51, revealed shortly after the leaked recordings that he secretly underwent surgery for cancer on his face in 2018 – before it returned on “several occasions”.
The popular chef also revealed that in the same traumatic period he and partner Louise were burgled by a masked gang and his grandfather tragically passed away.
Martin said that time was “one of the most fraught and difficult periods of my life”.
A whistleblower passed a recording of the rant to The Sun after the star was accused of bullying his crew following a string of incidents on set.
He was heard swearing 42 times in the recording, as his anger boiled over after a drain was blocked at his home during filming for Saturday Morning.
