Timeline

2017

White presented Hell's Kitchen Australia for the Seven Network which aired in 2017. Following matter-of-fact comments made by Masterchef judge Matt Preston about White's son's admitted $500,000 splurge of his father's money on drugs and prostitution, White joined this rival programme in retaliation.

In September 2017, White opened a new restaurant in Plymouth, Devon. At the opening, he was critical of the quality of English wine, describing it as "nonsense" and caused controversy by saying, '"London is the No 1 food destination, full stop. It has the talent and (the people who can pay) the prices ... How many three-Michelin-star restaurants does Cornwall have? None. "

2016

On 8 May 2016, White began his third year running, and fourth week-long appearance on Masterchef Australia, this time Week 2 of Series 8.

Following matter-of-fact comments made by MasterChef Australia judge Matt Preston about White's son's admitted $500,000 splurge of his father's money on drugs and prostitution, White joined the rival programme Hell's Kitchen Australia in retaliation. In 2016, whilst on The Kyle and Jackie O Show, Preston was asked about Marco Jr.’s time on Big Brother UK, which included his alleged on-air sex and the above admission of purchasing illicit drugs and sex workers. Preston said "I think it is that terrible thing when you have kids that go off the rails... the drugs might be a little bit of a worry". Since quitting MasterChef Australia, Marco Sr has said that “I will never forgive that man [Preston]…with my hand on my mother’s grave I will get that man”.

2015

On 17 May 2015, White began his second week-long appearance on Masterchef Australia, in Week 3 of Series 7. On 12 July 2015, he returned for a second week on Masterchef Australia Series 7, entitled "Marco Returns Week".

On 15 June 2014, White began a week-long appearance on Masterchef Australia presiding over a mystery box challenge, an invention test and a pressure test.

On 11 December 2014, White appeared on the South African version of Masterchef which aired on M-Net. He had a cook-along in the final challenge in the finals between Siphokazi and Roxi.

2013

As more hotel owners started making enquiries about a Marco Pierre White restaurant, in 2013, White developed a master franchise with Taplin, and together launched Black And White Hospitality. The business operates a franchise model allowing property owners or investors to open one of the eight Marco Pierre White branded restaurants within their property including Marco Pierre White Steakhouse Bar & Grill, Mr White’s English Chophouse, Wheeler’s of St James’s Oyster Bar & Grill Room, Koffmann & Mr White’s , Marco’s New York Italian, Wheeler’s Fish & Chips, Bardolino Pizzeria Bellini & Espresso Bar and Marconi Coffee & Juice Bar.

White is a principal judge in this competition between professional chefs, which started 20 January 2013. White co-hosts the show with regular Masterchef Australia host Matt Preston.

2012

In 2012, White fronted a new show for Channel 5 called Marco Pierre White's Kitchen Wars. It saw the UK's best restaurant partnerships balance food with front of house service, fighting for a place in a specially designed studio restaurant, where the top couples are each given their own kitchen and set of diners to impress. It received mostly positive reviews from critics.

2011

On 7 July 2011, White was a guest judge on Masterchef Australia mentoring the cooks in an elimination round.

On 27 August 2011, White was a houseguest on the UK version of Celebrity Big Brother to set a cooking task.

2010

In 2010 White met businessman Nick Taplin, owner of a four-star hotel in North Somerset (UK) called Cadbury House and operator of other venues in the UK. Taplin was looking to improve the in-house restaurant offering across his hotel estate and in October 2010, following discussions with White, opened a Marco Pierre White Steakhouse Bar & Grill at Cadbury House as a franchisee. This was closely followed by restaurants at Hoole Hall and The Cube.

2009

White returned to ITV's screens to present the 4th series of Hell's Kitchen in 2009.

2008

In 2008, White opened the MPW Steak & Alehouse with James Robertson in the Square Mile in London. As co-owners, since 2010 they have also operated the Kings Road Steakhouse & Grill in Chelsea. James Robertson had worked for White as a maître d'hôtel, between 1999 and 2003. Since May 2016 the two restaurants have become the London Steakhouse Co, a successful partnership and are, as of June 2018, the only restaurants worldwide in which White is a major shareholder.

White had a stake in the Yew Tree Inn, a 17th-century dining pub near Highclere in Hampshire, although following an acrimonious falling out with his business partners the pub was sold. This was the setting for much of "Marco's Great British Feast", screened on ITV in the summer of 2008. In January 2009, it was reported that White was to charge £5 for a pint of real ale at the venue, making the Yew Tree "one of the most expensive places to drink British real ale in the country". White was quoted saying "Most pubs undercharge. You're not just paying for beer, you're paying for the place you drink it in and the people who serve it."

On 18 March 2008, it was announced that White would be the host of an American version of the Australian cooking competition series The Chopping Block. The series, produced by Granada America, the production company behind the American version of Hell's Kitchen, aired on NBC in March 2009 but was pulled after three episodes due to low ratings. After a three-month hiatus, Chopping Block returned to complete its season.

2007

In September 2007, White was the Head Chef in ITV's Hell's Kitchen television series.

At one point during the series, controversy ensued when White said, "I don't think it was a pikey's picnic tonight." The remark prompted criticism from the Commission for Racial Equality. However, the show was defended by an ITV spokesman, who indicated that warnings about its content were given before transmission, and that White's comment had been challenged by one of the contestants, Lee Ryan. The book accompanying the show, Marco Pierre White in Hell's Kitchen, was published on 23 August 2007 by Ebury Press.

2000

In 1992, White began a relationship with Matilde Conejero, the bar manager at The Canteen in Chelsea Harbour and the couple went on to have two sons and a daughter. The couple married at the Belvedere restaurant in Holland Park on 7 April 2000. After White became friends with city financier Robin Saunders, Conejero suspected an affair between the two. White and his wife had a fight, after which White spent fourteen hours in the cells of Notting Hill police station in January 2005. White and Conejero began divorce proceedings in 2007. In 2011, the divorce proceedings were withdrawn but in October 2012, White and Conejero separated again.

1999

White announced his retirement from the kitchen in 1999 and cooked his final meal for a paying customer on 23 December at the Oak Room. He also returned all his Michelin Stars. After his retirement, he became a restaurateur. Together with Jimmy Lahoud, he set up White Star Line Ltd, which they operated together for several years before ending their partnership in 2007.

White then met 21-year-old model Lisa Butcher at a London nightclub. They were engaged within three weeks. Engaged for two months, Butcher sold the coverage of the wedding in a £20,000 deal with Hello! magazine. The wedding took place at the Brompton Oratory on 15 August 1992.

1988

White has been married three times. His first wife was Alex McArthur, who was the daughter of a surgeon from Buckinghamshire, and who worked at his local fishmonger. They were married at Chelsea Register Office on 8 June 1988. He has a daughter, Letitia, from the two-year marriage, which ended in 1990.
