Former MasterChef judge Melissa Leong has opened up about her recent split from her general practitioner [GP].
In her latest column for Stellar, the 42-year-old revealed she has stopped visiting her regular doctor.
‘I’m not bitter or anything; some things just take their own course, as you know, and I wish her well,’ she wrote.
She also urged fans to make good use of medical professionals and not skip regular checkups.
‘Ignoring that little niggle that you’re due a check-up isn’t what the doctor ordered,’ Melissa continued.
