While Australia fell in love with Jock Zonfrillo thanks to his work on MasterChef, his award-winning restaurants and numerous cookbooks, for wife Lauren Fried, he'll be remembered as the funny, loving, muck-about dad.
"He's a tornado," Lauren, who shares children Alfie, five, and Isla, two, with Jock, told the media in 2020.
"He's got a lot of energy, he's always fun to be around."
Further insight was given into the cheeky Scottish chef's antics, with Lauren revealing that he used to play the bagpipes as a way to rally his family to the dinner table.
"But sometimes he played bagpipe music if he was homesick or we had friends around, and poor little Alfie would be sitting there with his mouth gaping open, waiting for food.
"His Scottish charm is one of the things I love about him."
