Over the course of Gordon Ramsay’s long and illustrious career, the respected chef has accomplished a lot. For example, Gordon has even starred in so many popular series that fans have noticed him acting differently depending on the show he’s on. Because Gordon is so beloved, he has fans invested in his personal life, and that’s why it’s known that his family suffered a major tragedy.
Gordon Ramsay Family Facts
When Gordon Ramsay talks about food or is filmed cooking, his passion for his career and cooking for people becomes clear. However, anyone who really wants to see Gordon beaming with happiness needs to search for clips of the famous chef talking about his wife and children.
On December 21, 1996, Gordon Ramsay and Cayetana Hutcheson walked down the aisle together.
After the couple got married, the world got to know Gordon’s wife, who almost always uses her initials. In fact, thanks to the interviews she has given over the years and her social media presence, Tana Ramsay has a lot of fans of her own.
Over the course of Gordon and Tana Ramsay’s 25 years of marriage, the couple’s family has grown significantly. Despite Tana Ramsay struggling to conceive due to polycystic ovary syndrome, the couple has welcomed five children into the world.
After the couple’s first child Megan was born in 1998, they had twins Holly and Jack in 1999, Matilda in 2001, and most recently Oscar in 2019.
As a father, Gordon Ramsay has been very open about forcing his children to live by a set of rules that he has established and takes very seriously.
However, Gordon certainly seems to enjoy being with his children and is always there to protect them whenever it gets sad when needed. With that in mind, it seems that Gordon has been a rock for his family when tragedy strikes.
The Great Loss That Gordon Ramsay’s Family Suffered
This is a warning that this section of the article focuses on a miscarriage.
In 2016, the Ramsay family learned that mother Tana Ramsay was pregnant. With Gordon and Tana both loving their children, it seems the couple were overjoyed by the news.
Tragically, in October of that same year, Gordon announced on Facebook that his family had suffered a loss no one should have to experience.
“Hi everyone, Tana and I want to thank you so much for your support over the past few weeks. We have had a heartbreaking weekend as Tana miscarried our son at five months. We are healing together as a family, but we want to thank you again for all your incredible support and well wishes. I especially want to say a huge thank you to the amazing team at Portland Hospital for all they have done. Gx.”
While some people don’t understand the true devastation of miscarriage, the loss is so devastating that it’s hard to put into words. For proof, all you have to do is look at what Tana Ramsay posted on Instagram on the five-year anniversary of the baby she lost.
“If all had gone as we hoped yesterday 10/14/21 would have been our little boy Rocky’s 5th birthday, his due date not his actual birth date when he was too small to survive,” she wrote in the caption. “Not a day goes by that we don’t think about him, but, it wasn’t meant to be.”
“We have been blessed and will forever be grateful, but will always remember our little angel with hearts full of love and many tears x #babylossawarenessweek @gordongram,”
