NADIYA HUSSAIN has ruled out a move to The Great British Bake Off on Channel 4 after signing a deal to work for the BBC.
Hussain, 31, said that she would continue to work on The One Show and other “programme ideas” for the broadcaster.
“Since winning The Great British Bake Off I’ve been lucky to have had some amazing opportunities with the BBC,” she said.
“I believe that making it my home gives me the scope to work across such a unique range of diverse and interesting projects.
“I’m delighted to announce that I will continue making films for The One Show, as well as developing other exciting programme ideas. I never thought this would happen, but it is and I have to admit, I’m going to embrace it.”
