Great British Bake Off's Ruby looks unrecognisable after public row with Paul Hollywood

Great British Bake Off star Ruby Tandoh looks completely different nine years after she appeared on the smash hit baking show. When the series ended, many fans of the then BBC programme will remember that Ruby went on to have a public spat with judge Paul Hollywood.

Ruby was a contestant on the 2013 season of Bake Off. She was part of an all-female final with fellow contestants Kimberley Wilson and Frances Quinn - who went on to win the show.

The talented baker's public feud with judge Paul began when she called him a "walking gammon joint" and a "peacocking manchild", and accused him of "lingering where the money is" after the show moved from the BBC to Channel 4 in 2016.

Ruby later reignited their feud when she came out on Twitter. Addressing her detractors, she said: "For those who thought I fancied Paul Hollywood or that I’d ever bang him to get ahead - JOKE’S ON YOU, YOU MASSIVE S******G MISOGYNISTS."

Paul later hit back: "Very happy for you Ruby... but why do you feel it necessary bringing me into your announcement?"

Nine years after her Bake Off appearance, Ruby has transformed her look. Ruby previously sported a shaved head but now has much longer hair dyed a gorgeous shade of lilac.
