The Great British Bake Off's first episode ended with an emotional tribute on Tuesday, September 13. The Channel 4 show returned to screens for its 13th series and after fans were treated to their first instalment of time in the tent, a title card appeared onscreen that paid tribute to Chloë Avery.
Chloë was a food producer for Love Productions, the company behind Bake Off. After the episode, the production company tweeted: "In memory of Chloë Avery who was a much loved member of the Bake Off family."
Last month, Chloë's brother Henry broke the news that his sister had sadly lost her battle with cancer. Yorkshire Live reported that he had explained on Facebook that she had been diagnosed with cancer in December last year and was given just two weeks to live by doctors. She started chemotherapy the next day but sadly passed away on Monday, August 22, 2022.
