Watch the moment Gordon Ramsay revealed he was having a ‘Christmas baby’ ahead of surprise birth

GORDON Ramsay previously let slip that he was having a baby ahead of Christmas.

The TV chef was discussing his children on Heart radio earlier this year when host Jamie Theakston asked him to confirm how many kids he has.

Gordon was joined by Amanda Holden on the radio show to promote his TV series Next Level Chef before the conversation soon turned to his family life.

“Last time I looked there were five, there could be one more on the way,” he joked. “Tanya’s jeans aren’t fitting her…”

To which Amanda asked: “Is it Christmas or is it a baby?”

Backtracking slightly, Gordon teased: “Do you know what, I don’t know yet. I’ll double check when I get back.

“I’m going to Boots on the way back from here and I’ll double check.”

Jamie then said: “Have you inadvertently just revealed something you weren’t meant to say?”

Gordon responded: “Tana would like another baby and I’m like, ‘no, no, no’, It’s already hard enough when I take Oscar to school ‘hey, what’s your granddad’s name?’ Or sports day, Jamie, when I’m standing there with a stick and an egg and spoon thinking ‘holy…'”

Gordan and his wife did indeed add to their brood and welcomed their sixth child yesterday (November 11).

The 57-year-old shared his delight on Instagram with a sweet snap, calling it an “amazing birthday present”.

Sharing a picture of Tana in her hospital bed with their newborn, he said: “What an amazing birthday present please welcome Jesse James Ramsay, 7lbs 10oz whopper!!

“One more bundle of love to the Ramsay brigade!! 3 boys, 3 girls…. Done.”

The couple are already parents to five other children – Megan, Matilda (who’s known as Tilly), twins Jack and Holly, and Oscar James.
