Jamie Oliver and the Sudanese in him

The Insider is spreading the word and it seems to be true. His great uncle told him a family secret before his death, he is 1/6 Sudanese.

Maybe the Naked Chef should consider visiting K-town:)

PS:- Jamie, I totally love how we see you go shopping for all the food you are planning to cook:)
