MasterChef SPOILER: Fan favourite is revealed as a finalist in a leaked video chat… despite there still being 20 contestants left
There are 20 contestants still battling it out on MasterChef Australia.
And Daily Mail Australia can reveal that Brendan Pang is among the the finalists heading into the final stage of the competition, which is being filming Melbourne.
On Sunday, his friends in Perth accidentally dropped a major spoiler on Instagram when they shared footage from their video group chat.

Brendan video-called his friend Jess Calder from his hotel in Melbourne, where he has been staying since January while filming MasterChef.
Jess later shared a screenshot of their conversation to her Instagram account.
Although neither of them said he was a finalist, the fact he was away from home so close to the end of the competition will no doubt raise eyebrows.

It’s believed there are six contestants still filming the show in Melbourne. The eliminated contestants have since returned home, where they are self-isolating.
Several competitors have already effectively confirmed their exits by sharing social media posts from their hometowns.
These include Hayden Quinn, Simon Toohey, Dani Venn, Rose Adam, Jess Liemantara and Ben Ungermann, the latter of whom left the competition after being arrested over a ‘personal matter’.

Their posts prove they’re no longer in the competition, and their exits will air soon.
Similarly, eliminated stars Harry Foster, Lynton Tapp, Courtney Roulston and Ben Milbourne were all posting pictures from their homes, before their exits aired.
Filming started in January, months before it started airing on April 13 on Channel 10.
It’s expected to wrap soon, as the finalists follow COVID-19 precautions on set.
