• Gordon Ramsay given $800,000 villa

    Gordon Ramsay has boasted about being given an $800,000 villa on Australia’s Gold Coast.

    Speaking to 150 guests, who paid $300 each to watch him cook at the Hyatt Regency hotel, the chef said: “The good news is I’m getting a new home on the Gold Coast. It’s actually being given to me. It’s all being finalised now. It’s f****** lovely. The family will love it there.”

    He then moaned about how he gets given thousands of dollars-worth of cooking equipment.

    The foul-mouthed Hell’s Kitchen star said: “I’ve worked bloody hard to build up my career and make money so I can buy things like the best pots and pans, utensils and so on. Now I’m at the stage where it all gets given to me. Even the kids have got these luxury fridges in their bedrooms. It’s crazy.”

    He also talked about how he will visit “little cafes, chippies and tea rooms” when his Kitchen Nightmares show returns to UK television screens later this year.
