Gordon Ramsay, 57, enjoys romantic date night with wife Tana, 49, in California

and author Tana, 49, who have been married for 28 years, held hands and shared a kiss as they left upscale sushi restaurant Nobu Malibu at the weekend.

They drove off in a Porsche as it was revealed that more than 80 per cent of the restaurants featured in his TV series Kitchen Nightmares have closed permanently since he stepped in to try to turn their fortunes around.

He visited 105 restaurants in the UK, US, France and Spain for the show, which aired from 2007 to 2014, but only 19 remain open.

Earlier this month, it was reported that Gordon had given his blessing to Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty to marry his daughter Holly.

The 24-year-old went public with the England star on Instagram in June 2023.

They first met when Holly’s sister Tilly was competing with Adam on Strictly Come Dancing in 2021.

The pair could tie the knot soon after dad Gordon revealed he sees Adam as the “perfect” son-in-law, according to OK! magazine.

Their source claimed: “Gordon really approves of Adam, he definitely has Ramsay’s approval!

“Gordon is actually a former footballer, he’s a good friend of the Beckhams and he really appreciates all the sacrifices and training that a top athlete like Adam puts into his career.”

They added: “He really likes Adam, the way he treats Holly and would give his blessing if he proposed to his daughter, which seems very likely. He really wanted the Olympian to be part of the family.

“They are a perfect match. Holly herself is really happy, she has fallen in love with him and she knows her dad thinks Adam would be the perfect son-in-law.

“He’s great, he’s strict with his regime which Gordon admires, and he’s an all-round good guy – the perfect match for his daughter. Gordon and Adam have a great relationship too – they respect each other but they also have a lot of banter.”
