Gordon Ramsay marked his 60th birthday by sharing a black-and-white photo of himself topless, showing off a six-pack. The TV chef posted the image on Instagram with the caption: 'Thank you everyone for the incredible birthday messages ! Day 2 of being 60……LFG'
Fans quickly filled the comments with praise for his physique. One user wrote 'LETS GO CHEF!!!', another said 'Looks fit', and a third described him as 'shredded'. A food-themed comment read: 'Chef looking leaner and cleaner than a medium-rare Wellington; let's goooo.'
Fitness and Ambition
Ramsay has long prioritised fitness, having completed the Ironman World Championships and three ultramarathons. He remains ambitious, telling Business Traveller: 'I want to run a marathon faster in my 60s than I did in my 30s, just to prove that you can do that kind of stuff.' His goal is to finish next year's London Marathon in under three-and-a-half hours, a time he has previously missed narrowly.
Family Celebrations
The chef spent his birthday with his daughter Tilly, who was turning 25 on the same day. In a montage of photos, he wrote: 'Happy birthday to this incredible young lady, sharing such a special day with you is a dad's dream, there's not enough words to explain how proud you make me feel, have a fantastic 25th birthday and I can't believe I'm bloody 60 wtf.'
His other daughter, Holly Ramsay, who recently married Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty, called him 'my role model and biggest support.'
Career Highlights
Ramsay also stars in the new BBC docuseries Rise of the Rockstar Chef, in which he reunites with industry rivals Heston Blumenthal and Marco Pierre White. He reflects on career milestones, including his historic three-Michelin-star achievement, saying in the documentary: 'It still makes me feel incredibly emotional now and I don't talk about it that often because it's happened once and once only.'
