John Torode and Lisa Faulkner were all smiles as they announced the release of their new book in a heartwarming video.
The couple, who have been happily married for five years, took to Instagram on Friday (April 19) to share the exciting news with their fans.
In a video posted on Lisa’s story, the pair can be seen strolling through the woods together, teasing that they have “very exciting news” to share. Eager to let the cat out of the bag, Lisa hinted: “We can’t wait to share it, so I think, in the next hour or so it will be up on our stories.”

True to their word, a few hours later, John and Lisa unveiled the cover of their first joint cookery book. The book, titled ‘John and Lisa’s Kitchen’, features the couple joyfully cooking together in their kitchen.
“We’re so excited to be sharing our first book together with you all”, Lisa wrote in her own story slide. Later, she gave fans a sneak peek into the creation of the cover, which involved a photoshoot in their luxurious London home.
John and Lisa’s new cookbook, brimming with “everyday recipes from a professional chef and a home cook”, is up for grabs on pre-order at Amazon or Waterstones for a cool £19.99, hitting the shelves on September 12.
The culinary power couple, famed for their stints on MasterChef, have dished out solo recipe collections in the past, but this latest venture is their debut joint effort, serving up a taste of their kitchen chemistry. The pair first crossed paths on the Celebrity MasterChef set back in 2010, which Lisa clinched the title for, but it wasn’t until 2015 that sparks flew, as both were hitched to other halves at the time.
John popped the question over the Christmas period with a sparkler of a diamond ring, and by 2019, they sealed the deal with a swanky wedding at Aynhoe Park in Oxfordshire. Family life is bustling for the duo, with John being a proud dad to four from previous relationships, while Lisa adopted a daughter in 2006 with her former flame and Burn It co-star Chris Coghill, parting ways in 2011.
While they don’t have any children together, John and Lisa are united by their shared passion for food. They’ve already demonstrated their teamwork in their culinary show, ‘John and Lisa’s Weekend Kitchen’, which broadcasts every Saturday on ITV. The programme has been ongoing since their nuptials, with a ninth series hinted at for this autumn by ITV Studios back in March 2024.
