Sarah, who normally resides in NSW, had been staying in Melbourne while filming the Channel 10 cooking competition.

Onlookers saw Sarah being escorted from the hotel and into a yellow taxi.

She was then driven to another location in Melbourne, where she was greeted by friends and family.

Sarah’s outing comes just days after fellow MasterChef contender Poh Ling Yeow was spotted shopping for groceries in Melbourne.

Many fans believed this sighting was proof the Adelaide-based chef was still in the running to take out the top spot.  

Poh, 47, is expected to make it to the end of the competition, which is still being filmed but is expected to wrap in the coming weeks.

It comes after Daily Mail Australia revealed the rumoured final six contestants earlier this month.   

Poh, Reynold Poernomo, Laura Sharrad, Brendan Pang, Reece Hignell and Emelia Jackson all appeared to confirm they were finalists with careless social media posts.

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Channel 10 for comment.
