Last night the second part of the ‘Masterchef Celebrity’ final took place. After choosing the two duelists (with controversy included), the culinary reality show crowned its winner with the most watched gala of the edition but it was also the final with the least audience in the history of the program (with a 15.4% share and 2,025,000 viewers).

After 12 programs, Lorena Castell and Manu Baqueiro have managed to reach the end. The two duelists had to face the last test, but they would not do it alone: Lorena received her mother, her brother, her partner Rubén and even her son Río, while Manu was able to see his parents and the brother of her
Those who were also there to witness this last challenge were the former contestants of season 7, who launched to encourage their companions. In addition to them, chefs Joan Roca and Massimo Bottura stopped by the kitchens and tasted the duelists’ dishes.
Both got down to work preparing their menus: Lorena chose travel as a theme that he has made with his brother and made fabes with clams for the main dish, while Manu was inspired by his Galician roots and opted for a low-temperature grouper.
During the test, nerves played a trick on Manu and he ended up losing focus, so it was not surprising that the judges chose Lorena as the winner of the seventh edition: “Thank you for how you have worked. Technique, product. If you want to set up a restaurant, here are five partners.” “I’m super happy. This trophy belongs to my mother, her hand in the kitchen is from watching her cook for so long” said Lorena.
This is how season 7 of ‘Masterchef Celebrity’ ends. However, it won’t take long for another helping of the contest, as RTVE is preparing a Christmas special with the most memorable contestants from previous editions.
