On Tuesday, August 6, Gordon Ramsay shared an endearing snapshot on his Instagram Stories featuring himself and his youngest child, Jesse James, who is just 8 months old. The celebrity chef, 57, looked relaxed and happy as he lounged outdoors with baby Jesse on his lap.
The photo captures a sweet moment between the two, with Ramsay sporting a smile and Jesse looking adorable as ever. The proud dad wrote “@jessejamesramsay” alongside a red heart emoji, showing off their twinning moment to his followers.
Family Moments and Celebrations
This heartwarming picture comes shortly after Ramsay shared another family moment on Monday, where he and his two youngest sons, Jesse and Oscar James, 5, were ready for a swim. The Ramsay family, including Ramsay's wife Tana, 49, and their five children—Megan, 26, twins Holly and Jack, 24, and Matilda “Tilly,” 22—recently celebrated Tilly's college graduation. Ramsay proudly shared photos of Tilly in her cap and gown after she graduated with a psychology BSc from the University of Nottingham.
In the graduation photos, Ramsay stood between Tilly and Tana, all smiles, celebrating the milestone. "She’s Done it! Can’t explain enough how proud we are of this one honestly with everything you’ve been up against and to see you graduate today with a psychology BSc makes me the happiest Dad in the World," Ramsay wrote in the caption, expressing his joy and pride.
A Softer Side to the Famed Chef
Despite his tough persona on shows like Hell’s Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares, Ramsay has a softer side, especially when it comes to his children. He confessed to PEOPLE in September 2023, “The kids have brought the most emotion out of me.” Known for his fiery temper in the kitchen, Ramsay admitted that at home, he’s actually the softie, while his wife Tana, a former Montessori school teacher, is the disciplinarian.
Ramsay also spoke proudly of his children’s achievements: “Jack’s a Royal Marine commando, Megan’s an incredible police officer, Holly’s gone into fashion, and Tilly’s studying at university.”
In his typical humorous fashion, Ramsay joked about his hopes for his kids following in his culinary footsteps, playfully recounting how he places kitchen tools in Oscar’s hand while he sleeps, saying, “What the f--- are these for?”
From adorable father-son moments to celebrating family milestones, it's clear that Gordon Ramsay cherishes his role as a dad, showing a side of him that’s a far cry from the fiery chef we see on TV.
