Gordon Ramsay is a self-made man, who trained with some of the world’s leading chefs, such as Albert Roux and Marco Pierre Whitein London, and Guy Savoy and Joël Robuchon in France before launching his own empire.

This is the life

He began in 1998, at age 31, with the opening of his namesake restaurant, Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, which was awarded three Michelin stars. Since then, he has opened a string of successful restaurants in cities across the globe, including Doha, Qatar; Las Vegas; Atlantic City, N.J.; Singapore; Dubai; and several restaurants throughout the U.K.

At the same time, the chef became a TV personality, who today in the U.S. hosts MasterChef, MasterChef Jr., Hell’s Kitchen (renewed for two more seasons in 2022) and Gordon Ramsay: Uncharted, among others. (FOX’s Masterchef Junior will return for season 8 in March 2022.)

And along the way, Ramsay managed to marry and become father to five children with wife Cayetana “Tana” Hutcheson: Megan Jane Ramsay, twins Jack Scott Ramsay and Holly Anna Ramsay, Matilda Ramsay, and Oscar Ramsay. None of whom want to follow in Gordon’s footsteps and become a chef.

Who is Gordon Ramsay’s wife?

Gordon met Cayetana “Tana” Elizabeth Hutcheson in 1992 when he was 26 and she was only 18. They dated for four years before marrying in December 1996. A Montessori-trained schoolteacher, Tana went on to become a bestselling author with six cookbooks geared toward families looking for simple and delicious meals and a TV presenter. She was born on August 23, 1974, in Croydon, Surrey.

Who are Gordon Ramsay’s kids?

Megan Jane Ramsay

Born May 16, 1998, Megan, 23, is the eldest of Gordon’s children. Despite two celebrity parents, Megan avoids the media whenever possible, but she did allow her father to throw her a birthday party on a recent episode of Hell’s Kitchen. She studied psychology at Oxford Brooks University and works as an account executive at Freuds.

Holly Anna Ramsay

Born Jan. 1, 2000, Holly, 22, took a fashion course at Ravensbourne University in London, has a modeling contract with Est Models and Talent Agency, and has no interest in following her father into the kitchen.

In fact, recently, Gordon made fun of a Tik Tok video of Holly’s in which she attempted to make his potato gnocchi recipe.

In addition, Holly, a social media star, is also co-hosting a mental-health podcast with psychotherapist Talitha Fosh, on which she revealed that she had been sexually assaulted twice when she was 18 years old. Through the podcast, Holly hopes to become a mental-health advocate.

Jack Scott Ramsay

Born Jan. 1, 2000, Jack and Holly are fraternal twins. Jack, 22, has a love of sports. He played rugby in high school, and also has played water polo and studied Jiu-Jitsu. He attended Dulwich College and then Exeter University. Most recently, in October 2020, Jack joined the Royal Marines.

Matilda “Tilly” Ramsay

Born Nov. 8, 2001, Matilda, 20, is the most likely to follow somewhat in her father’s footsteps. Tilly, who recently took a gap year, is an influencer best known for presenting the BBC cooking show Matilda and the Ramsay Bunch on CBBC alongside her family, out of which came the cookbook Matilda & The Ramsay Bunch: Tilly’s Kitchen Takeover, and has made guest appearances on several of her father’s TV shows.

And now she’s competing on Strictly Come Dancing, the original British version of Dancing with the Stars. Gordon congratulated her with a post on Instagram which noted she’s one of the youngest dancers ever!

Tilly Ramsay is also competing on season 13 of MasterChef Australia, where she surprised fellow competitors by telling them she’s not allowed in her dad’s restaurants.

“I’m not even allowed in my dad’s Michelin-star restaurants so I don’t know what to do,” she said during Monday night’s episode. When pressed, she doubled down, saying “I’ve been once.”

Oscar James Ramsay

Born April 4, 2019, at almost 3 years old, Oscar is keeping his parents jumping, and Gordon, who makes fancy food for his toddler, says that he is the last chance for one of his children to follow in his footsteps and become a chef.

Gordon recently shared this sweet family picture of his youngest son, Oscar, teaching the family’s cat to walk!

Did Gordon and Tana suffer a miscarriage?

Yes. Tana became pregnant in 2016 with a boy. However, five months into her pregnancy, she suffered a miscarriage. At that time, Gordon posted on Facebook: “Hi guys, Tana and I want to thank you so much for your support over the past couple of weeks. We had a devastating weekend as Tana has sadly miscarried our son at five months. We’re together healing as a family, but we want to thank everyone again for all your amazing support and well wishes. I’d especially like to send a big thank you to the amazing team at Portland Hospital for everything they’ve done. Gx.”

Megan and Jack shortly thereafter ran the London Marathon in memory of their unborn brother.
