Gordon Ramsay has spoken out about the tragic death of his son Rocky.
The celebrity chef, 57, is behind hit TV shows such as Hell’s Kitchen, Kitchen Nightmares, and Next Level Chef.
He’s been married to his wife, Tana, 49, since 1996 and they share seven children: Megan, 25, twins Holly and Jack, 24, Matilda, 22, Oscar, 5, Rocky, and baby Jesse James.
In a recent interview, Ramsay discusses fatherhood and the ‘trauma’ his family experienced following the loss of Rocky.
Over the years, the MasterChef star has opened up about being a dad.
His eldest, Megan, was the first family member to receive a college degree.
Ramsay took to social media and celebrated her graduation, penning: “So proud of this young Lady @megan__ramsay our first Ramsay ever to graduate with a degree @oxfordbrookes hard work pays off!”
Holly, one of the fraternal twins, has dedicated time to destigmatizing mental health – she launched a podcast on which she discussed issues such as anxiety and depression. It also served as a safe place for her to open up about her mental health journal.
Ramsay’s daughter shared with listeners that she had been diagnosed with PTSD, anxiety, and depression after she was s**ually assaulted while attending university.
She said: “It’s confusing and I’m trying to take control of my narrative and use that to make something good.”
Holly’s twin, Jack, joined the United Kingdom’s Royal Marines, a division of the U.K.’s Navy.
Ramsay posted a carousel of photos of his son in his uniform, celebrating the achievement, alongside the caption: “Can’t tell you enough how proud I am of this young man. Jack Ramsay, you’ve made me feel like the proudest father today.”
Meanwhile, like her famous dad, Matilda ‘Tilly’ is often in the public eye.
From 2015 to 2019, she had a cooking reality show on CBBC titled Matilda and the Ramsay Bunch. She also competed in the British competition show Strictly Come Dancing, she and her dancing partner were the ninth pair to be eliminated.
Ramsay and Tana welcomed their son Oscar in 2019 – the father-son duo are often photographed wearing matching outfits.
And last year, the couple shocked fans by revealing they had welcomed another little one, Jesse James.
