Netflix’s Culinary Class War contestant Triple Star has found himself embroiled in various controversies.
Dispatch reported on October 30th that Triple Star’s ex-wife, known only as Woman A, and his ex-girlfriend, Woman B, came forward with shocking revelations about his personal life. Woman A and Triple Star were in a common-law marriage from May to August 2022.
Woman A revealed that she used her connections in the U.S. to help Triple Star land a job at a renowned culinary school. She admitted to gifting Chanel bags to a friend who knew people at ‘Atelier Crenn’ and ‘Benu’. The friend also confirmed that she received two Chanel bags as a gift from Woman A in exchange for her assistance.
Triple Star admitted that A gave Chanel bags to her friend but insisted that it didn’t guarantee him a job. He claimed that he earned his position at ‘Benu’ through hard work and talent. He stated, “You can’t buy a job with a few designer bags.” He added, “I worked diligently as an unpaid intern at ‘Benu’ and earned my spot on the team.”
Woman A also claimed that Triple Star had ongoing issues with women and disclosed letters he had written during their arguments. In the letters, he allegedly confessed, “I was attracted to women and had impure desires. I did something I shouldn’t have to someone who loved me deeply,” and, “I secretly watched a female guest from a dark storage room on CCTV because she was alone and dressed provocatively.”
In other letters, he reportedly wrote, “I’m sorry for pushing you to sleep with other men because of my own desires.” Triple Star responded, “That’s absolutely not true. I don’t remember exactly what I wrote, and I don’t have the letters now.”
Triple Star is also accused of making threatening remarks to his ex-wife. She claims he threatened to “stab” her after she began a new relationship. Triple Star responded by saying he didn’t recall the specific details of the conversation. He said, “I don’t know what messages she has seen, so it’s hard to respond. However, if I was angry, there must have been a reason.”
His other ex-girlfriend, Woman B, also revealed that she was dumped suddenly by Triple Star. She stated, “I later found out he was seeing another woman when we were dating. I tried to reach out for an apology, but he didn’t respond.” She added, “Soon after, I heard rumors about his marriage and opening a restaurant.” Triple Star, however, claimed, “I didn’t date her for long, just for 1 to 2 months. We had different thoughts, so we stopped contacting each other.”
Meanwhile, Triple Star gained immense popularity recently after appearing in Culinary Class War on Netflix. He is currently running a restaurant called Trid.
