I suppose he doesn't have a load of cash to compete with the Ramsays so maybe that's why
they've done a magazine deal.

She is the daughter of that foul mouthed chef who - with her drippy husband - have banned her future mother-in-law from their wedding. The mother who spent years driving her son to and from swimming practices so he could be a success. So, no, not a criminal but not very likable.

He maybe a foul mouthed chef - but that is all for tv. Honestly, he is such a lovely guy and very sincere.

Our son (28) passed away on the 29th June from a Glioblastoma. When he was first diagnosed June 2022 and after his first craniotomy and treatment, DS started to watch an episode of Hell's Kitchen every evening. He worked his way through all of the series. I wrote to Gordon's PA to ask when the next series would be out. I didn't hear anything for a while and wasn't even sure if my email had arrived or if it had even got to the correct person.

Anyway...after about two months I received a reply apologising for the delay but also saying it's difficult to pin Gordon down. Attached to the email was a lovely personal video to DS from Gordon, he also invited us and DS's friends over to Connecticut for the filming of the up and coming season which was June 2024. We kept in touch as the visit to the states was dependent on DS's scan which was due in the April (this was about the November 2023), unfortunately the scan showed new growth and DS was literally in for another craniotomy within the week. He was unable to fly for so many weeks after and we sadly couldn't fly to the states.

Last December 2024, we were guests at Restaurant Gordon Ramsay and also Lucky Cat/Bar and Grill over two evenings. DS's friends came with us. We were treat like kings and queens. They could honestly not do enough for us.

Am not sure why I have told you all of the above...you certainly didn't need to know it all, but I think the moral of the story is don't judge...😊

With regards to the groom and his mother - we only have one side of the story (hers)...

The behaviour on MN is becoming as bitchy and pathetic as Tattle etc.

Matched her shiny face…..which I know is the trend now. I’m old, we used to want to be matte, use face blotting paper, etc. now everyone wants to be glowing, aka shiny! 😀

Yes, it's called glass skin, that's the look.

It’s lovely from the back, I think it would have been nicer if it wasn’t so shiny.

Tana looks gorgeous 💞

Tana hasn't looked gorgeous since before her first batch of work. Each to her own, I suppose, but I do wish women wouldn't do this to themselves.

Guess daddy Ramsay is overseeing it surely 🤔

I would imagine so!

MrsLizzieDarcy · 27/12/2025 15:36

Most of that crowd were likely people who'd come to see Bath Abbey then realised it was closed all day for the wedding of a pair of Z listers. I feel so sorry for Adam's Mum today, this must be horrific for her.

A friend got married in winter and had a gorgeous cashmere cape over her dress. There is no excuse for that awful satin and lace tablecloth with their money. I wonder if the magazine provided it as part of the contract....

LeticiaMorales · 27/12/2025 15:35

Well, she looks very pretty, and I just thought she was wearing a cape because it's a cold day!
She's wearing pure white, it's not a shroud and there's absolutely no similarity to any Dickensian jilted character whatsoever.

LeticiaMorales · 27/12/2025 15:33

Can you imagine being the caterers for that event?
😱

TheatricalLife · 27/12/2025 15:34

The crowds are there to get a glimpse of the much more famous guests. Nothing to do with the bride and groom themselves.

She read MN and got inspiration from the Shrouded Christmas Tree "trend".

This!

You also I thought had to have a valid reason to marry in bath Abbey, so to be a parishioner, have a family connection. Guess money talks 🤷‍♀️

She doesn’t care. She’s a so-called ‘influencer’ who lives & dies by public attention and column inches.

That doesn't mean the behaviour on this thread is acceptable.

RedRiverShore6 · 27/12/2025 15:32

Itsmetheflamingo · 27/12/2025 15:22

It’s very strange that they’ve made holly Ramsey a thing. The crowds are blowing my mind- why? To see Gordon Ramsey?

More likely the Beckhams.

Blimmin' 'eck, it's another shroud to go with Miss Haversham's Christmas tree Shock

Miss Havisham.
It would be ragged, stained and covered in cobwebs, surely?
This looks pristine white.

It will be for Hello won't it and isn't she an influencer so she will be making content,

SnowDaysAndBadLays · 27/12/2025 15:30

The whole thing looks dreadful, I can't imagine wanting my wedding turned into a Circus and they clearly knew it would be.
