For our second episode of #VerifiedViews, we are looking into the journey of a reality TV star turned global influencer - Edd Kimber, otherwise known by his online alias The Boy Who Bakes. Winner of the first ever series of The Great British Bake Off; Edd is also an author, television presenter, LGBTQ+ advocate and seriously talented cake maker. Edd’s world changed overnight when he won GBBO – instead of going back to his desk job as a debt collector for a Yorkshire Bank, he grabbed the opportunity to make a life-changing move and used social media to build a post-show career as a baking influencer. In this episode, we talk reality TV truths, social media’s ever changing landscape and the Gay Cake row. Don’t forget to leave us a review!
