In this episode, we talk to TV and food personality Melissa Leong, the subject of the cover story in Sunday Life's September 28 issue.

Leong has worn many hats: talented pianist, advertising executive, food writer and even UFC broadcast host. But it’s the three years she spent as a judge on MasterChef Australia that made her a household name, and also put her under the spotlight.

In this interview with Sunday Life associate editor Melissa Singer, Leong talks about her formative years and food memories, and why she’s revealing the darkest chapter of her life.

And a heads-up, this episode contains some strong language, and discussions about assault and sexual assault. If you or someone you know is impacted by sexual assault or family violence, call 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732 or visit www.1800RESPECT.org.au
