Gordon Ramsay has revealed he is 'secretly petrified' to become a grandfather for the first time after his daughter Holly announced her pregnancy last week.

The celebrity chef, 56, shared his fears while talking to Gary Linieker during the latest episode of his show The Rest Is Football on Netflix.

Reflecting on the fact they are both set to welcome grandchildren, Gordon said: 'I am secretly petrified because until they can talk and communicate with you, you can't do much, we're not going to f***ing breastfeed, are we?'

While Gordon is nervous to welcome the new addition to the family, he has shared his excitement about becoming a grandfather. 

On Saturday, Holly announced she's expecting a baby girl with husband Adam Peaty, 31, in December.

Gordon, who shares six children with his wife Tana, then shared his delight at the news in the comments of Holly's post, writing: 'Congratulations to you both sending lots of love Dad ❤️.

'I'm going to be a very overexcited Grandad especially this Christmas @hollyramsaypeaty @adamramsaypeaty.'

Holly's sister Tilly also gushed that it was the 'best news ever.' 

Gordon and Tana share Megan, 27, twins Jack and Holly, 26, Tilly, 24, Oscar, six, and the youngest, Jesse James, two. 

Holly announced her pregnancy alongside a snap of herself and Adam, with her growing bump on display in a Calvin Klein bralet.

She captioned the post: 'Baby Ramsay-Peaty coming December 2026. We can't wait to meet our baby girl.'

The couple tied the knot in a lavish ceremony on December 27, 2025, at the historic Bath Abbey followed by a reception at Kin House in the countryside. 

However, Adam has been locked in a feud with his estranged family since it was revealed in November that Adam had banned his mother Caroline and father Mark from his December wedding to Holly.

Following the news, many of the Ramsay family's famous friends, including Victoria Beckham and her son Romeo, offered their congratulations in the comments.

Adam's sister Bethany was the only member of his family who attended his wedding last year, with the carer herself saying she's divided in her loyalties between her brother and her parents. You can read the full interview here.

The swimmer married Gordon's influencer daughter Holly at a high-profile wedding at Bath Abbey in December, at which he banned his mother Caroline and other family members from attending due to an ongoing bitter feud, first revealed by this newspaper last autumn.

He has been fully embraced by the world famous TV chef and wife Tana and even now calls them 'dad' and 'mum'.

Earlier this year, the Ramsays unveiled their new six-part documentary, which follows Gordon's journey in opening new restaurants at London's Bishopsgate, and features a brief clip of Adam and Holly's engagement party.

Prior to the documentary's release, Adam's mother Caroline demanded that she be removed from the footage, even though she was seen in a fleeting scene.

Since the documentary was unveiled, Gordon revealed Adam's new moniker for him, saying: 'He calls me dad. He messaged me and said, "Hey dad, what have you got? Hey dad, are you around later?" And it's just like, "Oh my God". Incredible.'

Gordon himself has previously defended the family when it comes to the Peaty/Ramsay fall out, calling it all 'self-inflicted from their side'.

He said: 'We sent a chauffeur-driven car for them to come to the engagement party and treated them like royalty. So to get that barrage of press was very hurtful. Tana took it very seriously.'

Ramsay had commented on how beautiful his daughter looked during his wedding speech, telling Adam: 'Look at Tana and that's what you have to look forward to.'

The publication went on to claim that he couldn't resist a sly dig at Adam's absent parents as he told his daughter Holly: 'Shame you don't have the same.'

It was later revealed that the swimmer's estranged mother had been left 'outraged' and 'hurt' that Ramsay had referred to their feud in his speech.

A family source told the Daily Mail she was left horrified by the moment in the speech and believed the celebrity chef had 'pre-planned' the cruel swipe against her, calling it 'cruel' and 'very hurtful'.

But Ramsay doubled down on his speech as he appeared on This Morning in January, insisting that what he had to say at the wedding reception was 'perfect and warm'.

He said: 'It's tough, honestly. Being the dad with three daughters, you dream of that moment and that moment arrives and you're just like a hot mess.

'But, the speech was perfect, it went well and you've got to find that… You've got to be warm, emotional… It's a tough gig.'
