'Crier' Gordon Ramsay Speaks Out About His Home Life With 5 Kids & 'Fierce' Ex-Teacher Wife

• Gordon Ramsay and Tana Ramsay are parents to five amazing kids.
• The couple revealed that Gordon is the emotional parent while Tana is the tough one.
• Gordon and Tana came from humble beginnings but have raised bright and successful kids they are proud of.

Gordon Ramsay and Tana Ramsay are parents to five kids. The two first became parents in 1998 when they welcomed their eldest child, Megan Ramsay, 25. In 1999, Tana gave birth to fraternal twins Holly Anna Ramsay and Jack Scott Ramsay, 23.

Gordon and his wife welcomed their fourth child, Matilda Ramsay, 21, in 2001. The couple went through a difficult time in 2016 when Tana experienced a miscarriage. However, Gordon and Tana were elated when they had their youngest child, Oscar James Ramsay, 4, in 2019.

The "Hell's Kitchen" host is known for his tough demeanor on TV, but he revealed in September 2023 that his kids had brought the "most emotion" out of him. People often speculated that Gordon was a tough dad, but he is reportedly the opposite in person.

Gordon revealed that he was a "softie," but his wife, an ex-Montessori school teacher, was "super fierce." Tana chimed in and shared a few details about the dad of five. She said the TV host was "incredibly sensitive… he's a crier."

The 56-year-old admitted that everyone had a good and bad side. Gordon noted that he was just very good at highlighting the bad in himself, which turned into an incredible thing. That said, the TV host brings none of his tough traits from his TV home. Gordon said his kids aren't afraid to push his buttons, while Tana noted that cursing isn't a part of the responses in their household.

Gordon and Tana have raised amazing and talented kids. The couple started their marriage from a humble beginning. The two used to live in a small two-bedroom apartment, but when the twins were born, Tana said the apartment became too small for them all.

Now, the couple has a family home in the London borough of Wandsworth and a house in Los Angeles, where they stay during filming. Gordon and Tana's humble beginning grew into immense success.

Tana and Gordon came from a family with no degrees. They said this when revealing that Matilda was now at a university pursuing her degree.

However, it isn't the couple's success that makes them the happiest, as Gordon gets emotional sharing the pride he has for his kids. Still, Gordon jokingly noted he is concerned that none of his kids is following in his footsteps.

Gordon's youngest child was born on April 4, 2019. The young boy resembles his father a lot. Gordon, who hangs out with Oscar a lot, once joked that he was looking forward to passing the "Hell's Kitchen" legacy to his youngest child.

Gordon and Tana have created a lovely family. Their kids share in the TV host's passions for hiking, swimming, and biking. However, they prefer Tana's food to Gordon's as they find his food too posh.
