Ahh… The Great British Baking Show. That good-spirited antidote to life’s overwhelming complexities, a place where competition is all in good fun and where individualism doesn’t clash with community. And such good lighting! What a dream.
And now fans of the show have found another reason to get all warm and fuzzy — two of season seven’s contestants, Michael Chakraverty and Henry Bird, are maybe probably an off-screen item.
Photos of the couple looking all couple-y have made the rounds online, and the reaction has been as enthusiastic as Mary Berry when she tastes the perfect sticky toffee pudding.
A fellow season seven baker, Alice Fevronia, posted a couple of photos of Chakraverty and Bird that certainly point towards romance.
How about we take this to the next level?

This has been a very satisfying across the board and Henry is a wonderful competitor to watch (those ties, that moment when he had his head on David’s shoulder).

That should have read “a very satisfying season”

I hope they are together. They make the cutest couple.

It’s “The Great British Bake-Off”. Or has it been renamed for the US?

It is “The Great British Baking Show” in the United States. Pillsbury owns the rights to the term “Bake-Off.”

They are just messing with everyone. A while back Alice posted pictures with Henry, and everyone was talking about them being a couple. So Alice responded with the picture of the 4 of them “how many couples do you see?”. I’ve seen on different medias pictures of everyone hanging out. They seem to make really good bonds with fellow contestants and not only this season

If they are a couple and in love, good for them. If not I would gladly be half of a couple with either one. I was rooting for both because they seem so nice. Genuine smiles.
