Meghan, their oldest, is 23 while Holly and Jack, who are twins, are 21. And Matilda, who goes by Tilly, recently turned 20. So there is a huge age gap between the older siblings and baby Oscar who was born in April 2019. Oscar is now two, and he even has his own Instagram account. dedicated to his daily shenanigans and stylish hairdos.
Matilda is following in her father’s footsteps as she already starred in her own CBBC cooking show, Matilda and the Ramsay Bunch. She also recently appeared in Strictly Come Dancing with pro Nikita Kuzmin. The pair made it all the way to Week 10 together, but after yet another dip in the dance-off, they were sent packing by Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood, Anton Du Beke and Cynthia Erivo.
She runs her baby bro's Instagram which is filled with adorable pics.
Meanwhile, Jack is an avid athlete having competed in the IronMan event and in the London triathlon with big sister Megan last year.
Gordon opened up about parenting during an appearance on a US radio station last year, telling listeners: “I’m firm, I'm fair and I will give you everything I've got to get you to the very top.”
He added: “It's like not employing the kids. I don't want the staff thinking, it's Ramsay's kid, we can't tell them off.
“You want to work in this business? You go off to another chef, learn something different and come back with something new to improve the business.”
The couple experienced a miscarriage in 2016, five months into the pregnancy and Gordon told the Daily Mail at the time: “You realise how lucky you are and you reflect on what you have, how fortunate you are with your remaining children and you remind yourself of what you’ve got.
“It’s made the family unit even tighter.”
Tana and Gordon announced they were pregnant with Oscar – who looks just like him – in an adorable Instagram video on New Year’s Day 2019.
When the tot was born, the proud dad gushed: “After 3 baftas and one Emmy... finally we have won an Oscar, please welcome Oscar James Ramsay, who touched down at 12:58 today for some lunch!”
The chef shocked the world in a Telegraph interview in 2017 when he revealed he won't be leaving his fortune to his children.
He said: “[My money is] definitely not going to them, and that’s not in a mean way; it’s to not spoil them.
“The only thing I’ve agreed with Tana is they get a 25 per cent deposit on a flat, but not the whole flat."
He also admitted they never fly first class with him, unless they pay for it themselves.
"They haven’t worked anywhere near hard enough to afford that. At that age, at that size, you’re telling me they need to sit in first class? No, they do not."
He also joked that they are not allowed to date any of the Beckham brood...
