Gordon Ramsay shares update on fatherhood – addition to family comes seven years after couple lost baby

The most well-known aspect of Gordon Ramsay is his reputation as the feisty English chef who rose to prominence in the world of culinary pleasures. By now, the chef’s culinary talents have garnered him decades of attention.

He just shared his thoughts about how his sixth time as a father is going! To learn more about Ramsay’s update, continue reading.

This past weekend, Gordon Ramsay attended the Formula 1 Grand Prix in Las Vegas and was delighted to discuss the newest member of his family, a baby boy called Jesse James.

Ramsay,57, was open about being a father for the first time at his age. “Extraordinary,” he remarked with a sense of humor, “just blessed.” Additionally, I’m positive that I’ll be the oldest father at the school drop-off, so I’ll wear my spectacles and a cap.

Early this month, the couple welcomed their newest child, Jesse James Ramsay, who weighed a whopping seven pounds and ten ounces. To the Ramsay brigade, one more loving bundle! Chef Ramsay posted images of his son on social media, saying, “3 boys, 3 girls…done.”

Tana Ramsay, his wife, also announced the birth of her most recent kid on social media. The Ramsay family is complete, she wrote, adding, “It’s been a nerve-wracking nine months, but we’ve made it and we have been blessed with this little bundle.” We adore you so much, Jesse James Ramsay,” she wrote.

In 2016, the couple lost the child who was supposed to be their sixth. The renowned chef shared a message on the tragic incident at the time. He started by expressing gratitude to the public for their support over the past two weeks for both him and his wife. “We had a devastating weekend as Tana has sadly miscarried our son at five months,” he continued, spilling the beans to them.

Tana Ramsay eventually talked about her experiences four years later. She discussed the event in an interview in November 2020. This occurred following Chrissy Teigen’s 2020 public announcement of her own miscarriage, during which she was candid and open about the whole experience on social media. She received a lot of criticism for being so open about the entire ordeal.

Tana Ramsay went above and beyond to encourage Chrissy Teigen, even praising her candor. “I find it very emotional, and I thought she was amazing,” the woman remarked. I didn’t know all the details when I read about her predicament, but a lot of it sounded a lot like mine.

“I think she was amazing for talking about it and posting the photos that she did,” the woman continued. “It brings it all back.”

She thought back to her own miscarriage and how people would avoid talking about it as if it had never happened. “To be honest, when it happened to me, I found it really difficult when people would talk to me and not bring it up because it seemed like it never happened,” the woman stated.

“It was really difficult, so all I wanted to do was talk about it with friends, family, and anyone else who asked.” “It was a really hard experience—you go from having a baby kicking inside of you to suddenly it’s not there,” she continued.

She also mentioned how incredible Gordon had been during the whole thing. “Gordon was amazing. He’s always talked about everything. He was very good at talking it out of me and never giving me the feeling that maybe we shouldn’t talk about it,” the woman remarked.

Gordon Ramsay eventually spoke about the death of his son in 2016 in September 2023. Rocky was the child’s given name, and they were thrilled to have him in the family.

The 56-year-old famous chef remarked, “It was very difficult to lose Rocky.” You cannot watch or read a book that will help you get over that loss.

He talked about how the entire experience had been “life-changing.” Tana had some health concerns, so they went from celebrating the baby’s health one day to learning the next day that she had miscarried. Everything transpired in a span of one day.

He claimed that the tragic incident strengthened the bonds between their family members.

Oscar, the couple’s fifth child, was later welcomed into the world in 2019. And in 2023, they welcomed their sixth child, declaring that their family was now complete!

After Mom’s Death, Son Kicks Stepdad Out of the House & Posh Car Stops in Front of the Old Man — Story of the Day

A man is abandoned by the stepson he raised as his own after his wife died, and is unexpectedly rescued by a kind young man.

Do you believe in karma? Bob didn’t. He lived his life and made his decisions with no thought for anyone except himself. What he wanted was what was right, no matter the cost to everyone else.

Bob never imagined that his attitude would reverberate down the years until he found himself standing by the side of a lonely road watching his only family drive away, leaving him alone, abandoned.

The man driving away from Bob was Sam, his stepson, the boy he’d raised as his own and loved with all his heart from the time he was five years old. Back then, Bob had been on the verge of marriage when he’d met Sam’s mother, Adele.

Adele had been beautiful, charming, exciting, and Bob had walked out on his fiancée without an explanation. He left his old life behind like a dirty shirt and married the wealthy Adele.

For thirty years Bob and Adele had been happy. They traveled around the world living a life of luxury in the inheritance she had received on the death of her wealthy old husband — Sam’s father.

Bob thought they had been a happy family until Adele had become very ill. Unfortunately, not all the money in the world could save her from the terrible cancer that burned through her frail body.

When they lowered Adele’s coffin into the ground, Bob had stood by the graveside, shaking. “My love,” he whispered, “I will never forget you, never! And I promise you I will look after Sam.”

But unfortunately for Bob, Sam had made no such promises. A few days after Adele’s death, her lawyer called Bob and Sam and explained that she hadn’t left a will, and the estate would be in Sam’s hands provisionally.

Be careful of the examples you give the young because they will surely follow them.

“Until we can ascertain Bob’s rights, Sam,” the lawyer explained. “Since the bulk of the estate was left by your father…”

Sam had smiled. “Of course…That seems very fair to me, and Bob, you can be sure I’ll be fair.” Bob smiled and thanked Sam for his kindness, never imagining the true intention behind his words.

That weekend, Sam invited Bob to go for a drive out in the country to get some fresh air. “Bob,” he said. “We need to get rid of the cobwebs before we can start a new life!”

The two had driven off in Sam’s convertible and Bob had noticed that his stepson was uncharacteristically quiet, even though he smiled a lot, and looked amused.

When they were outside the city limits, Sam stopped the car. “Get out,” he said. “Get out now.”

“Sam?” asked Bob, bewildered. “What’s going on?”

“As I told you, I’m getting rid of the cobwebs, starting a new life,” Sam said with a nasty little smile. “And you’re dead weight, old man.”

“But…I promised your mother I’d look out for you…” Bob gasped.

“But I never made her any promises,” his stepson said. “I don’t owe YOU anything. You lived off her for thirty years, that’s long enough, don’t you think?”

“I love you!” whispered Bob with tears in his eyes. “You were like a son to me, I thought you cared for me!”

“Care?” asked Sam. “What I care about is all that money and I’m not about to share it with you. It’s MY money, old man, so get lost!”

Sam made a threatening gesture and Bob stumbled out of the car trembling. He stood and watched as Sam’s car vanished in a dwindling cloud of dust.

He looked around. The emptiness stretched out in all directions from horizon to horizon, and he had nothing except his walking stick. He started wobbling after Sam’s car, thinking that sooner or later he’d come across a house, or be overtaken by another vehicle.

Surely someone would be kind enough to stop for an old man? But car after car sped by, and no one stopped. After a while, Bob stopped trying to flag them down. He just stopped where he was.

The sun was going down and it was getting very cold when a large expensive-looking car stopped next to him. “Sir,” asked a kindly voice. “Are you alright?”

Bob felt tears fill his eyes at the sound of the concern in that stranger’s voice. “No,” he said shakily. “I’ve been abandoned here. Please, if you could take me to the nearest town, a police station? If it’s not too much trouble!”

“Abandoned?” the man sounded shocked. “That’s shocking! Please get in.”

The driver was a young man in his early thirties with a friendly smile and kindly blue eyes. He reminded Bob of someone, but he couldn’t remember who it was. Bob told the man, whose name was Jake Kale his whole story.

Jake was indignant, and when he saw that Bob was shaking from the cold, he decided to take him home. “I’ll take you to the police tomorrow morning, Bob,” he said. “Tonight you get warm and have a good meal and a restful sleep.”

Jake led Bob into a lovely cozy home and introduced him to his wife Angela and his daughter Faye. “My mother is joining us for dinner, Bob,” Jake said. As he was speaking, a cheerful voice called out a greeting and a sweet-faced woman in her sixties walked in.

She had Jake’s eyes, Bob noticed, and once again he had the eery feeling that he knew her from somewhere, but where? Bob was stunned when the woman turned and saw him standing there. She cried out, and Jake had to grab her before she fell.

“Mom!” Jake cried, “Are you OK?”

“That man…” gasped Peggy Kale. “Bob…It’s you!”

“I’m Bob,” said Bob bewildered, “But how did you know?” Then he saw the years fall away from that sweet face. “Peggy! After all these years!”

“How did you get here? How did you find us?” Peggy asked.

Bob shook his head. “It was Jake who found me, rescued me. I was abandoned on the road. He picked me up. He’s your son?”

“Yes,” Peggy said quietly. “My son…and yours.”

“Mine?” whispered Bob. “You were pregnant? You didn’t tell me!”

“You walked away a week before our wedding,” Peggy said. “I didn’t know then — and later it didn’t seem to matter. You didn’t want me, and I wasn’t going to use my baby to pressure you.”

Bob lowered his head and cried bitter tears. “I raised Adele’s son!” he whispered. “You knew that?”

And as Peggy nodded, Bob continued bitterly: “It was Adele’s boy — whom I thought was my boy, who abandoned me by the side of the road like a stray dog.”

Peggy smiled. “And it was my son who saved you…Think about that, Bob!”

Bob did. He spent the night tossing and turning, thinking about the choices he’d made, the examples he’d given Sam. He’d raised a selfish, grasping, dishonest man, and Peggy had raised a good, generous one.

The next day, Jake took Bob to a police station and lodged a complaint against Sam. Jake got Bob a good lawyer and the courts awarded Bob half of Adele’s substantial estate.

Shortly after the court’s decision, Bob signed over every cent to his son Jake, and to his granddaughter. He begged Peggy’s forgiveness and he is now working hard at making it up to his son and his ex-fiancée.

What can we learn from this story?

  • Be careful of the examples you give the young because they will surely follow them. Bob was a selfish man, and that was the example he gave his stepson.
  • Fate will bring you face to face with your greatest mistakes so you can make amends. The man who rescued Bob was his biological son whom he had apparently abandoned before he was born.
