Breaking News: Gordon Ramsay is recovering from cycling accident Chef and TV star Gordon Ramsay has urged cyclists to put their safety first after suffering his own horrific accident. The 57-year-old posted a video and photos to Instagram on June 15 detailing the accident, which happened last week. In the short clip, he lifted up his chef’s jacket to show the bruising that covered the entire left side of his torso.

“Honestly, you have to wear a helmet. I don’t care how short the ride is,” Ramsay said, sharing a photo of his tattered helmet. “I’m lucky to be standing here. I’m in pain, it’s been a brutal week and I’m trying to get through it, but I can’t tell you how important it is to wear a helmet.”

The cycling enthusiast, who has competed in triathlons and Ironman races, said he was treated at Lawrence + Memorial Hospital in New London, Connecticut, and is recovering. However, he added that the incident “really shook me up.” Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay owns several restaurants, hosts TV shows such as MasterChef and Hell’s Kitchen, and has written more than 20 books. Born in Scotland, he gave up his early sports career to become a celebrity chef in London. In the early 2000s, he made his mark on British television as the fiery host of Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares and Hell’s Kitchen, shows that have made successful transitions to American audiences. Since then, the award-winning chef has expanded his famous brand through shows like MasterChef and Next Level Chef and opened more restaurants around the world.

Gordon James Ramsay was born on November 8, 1966, in Johnstone, Scotland, in the United Kingdom. He grew up in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, after moving there with his family at the age of five. Ramsay’s first love was football, and he set his sights on a professional career in the sport. At the age of 15, the talented Ramsay joined the Glasgow Rangers, a professional club. His stint with the team lasted three years, until 1985, when a knee injury ended his career prematurely.

Forced to start over, Ramsay returned to school, earning a degree in hotel management in 1987. After completing his studies, Ramsay worked under some of Europe’s top chefs. He apprenticed with Marco Pierre White at Harvey’s in London, worked for Albert Roux at Le Gavroche, and then worked under master chefs Joel Robuchon and Guy Savoy in France.
