Andy Murray's mother Judy reportedly signs up for the next series of Celebrity MasterChef.

Andy Murray's mother Judy has reportedly signed up for the next series of Celebrity MasterChef.

The 60-year-old tennis coach, who has previously appeared on Strictly Come Dancing, is said to have already filmed her part in the series, which will air on BBC One later in the year.

A source told The Sun: "Producers thought it was a massive coup to bag Judy. Judy has a big fan base and a lot of older women respect her, so will tune in. She loved filming and bonded with the other contestants, making some unlikely friendships.

"The competition this year was tougher than ever with some hard challenges and intricate recipes, pushing the celebs harder than before."

The reigning champion of the cooking contest is former Team GB long jumper Greg Rutherford, while other previous sporting winners include Phil Vickery and Matt Dawson.
