A passionate baker from Wales, Michelle is already proving to be big competition after winning Star Baker on cake week.
After growing up on a farm with her parents, the 35-year-old has a passion for home-grown fruit and vegetables and experimenting with flavours.
Michelle has admitted she’s wanted to be on GBBO for “so long” and it’s brought her many tears already.
Married to husband Ben and with a teenage son Alfie, Michelle couldn’t be more thankful for her supportive family who she thanks regularly on Instagram.
She’s revealed baking is a big part of their family life as she makes them something at least every other day.
Michelle also makes her signature bake, a Prinsesstarta cake every year for her husband’s birthday.
