To say that Gordon Ramsay didnât approve of his daughter Tilly dating fellow TV chef Gino DâAcampoâs son Luciano is an understatement.
DâAcampo is currently facing dozens of accusations of sexually inappropriate and âdistressingâ behaviour on TV sets spanning 12 years, which he âfuriously deniesâ.
Ramsayâs reaction to their offspringâs romance has resurfaced following reports that he is âno longer on speaking termsâ with DâAcampo and himself raised concerns about the Italian cooking starâs behaviour two years ago.
Tilly and Luciano were first linked in 2019 after meeting through their famous fathers. At the time, Gordon and Gino were filming their ITV series Gordon, Gino and Fred: Road Trip alongside Fred Sirieix.

Dad-of-six Ramsay made no attempt to hide his displeasure about this union, calling it his âworst nightmareâ.
The discovery came over a FaceTime call while the chefs were filming their Road Trip show in Mexico.
DâAcampo rang his then-18-year-old, who revealed he was having dinner with Tilly, who was also 18 at the time.
âDo you know who Iâm with?â Luciano teased his dad, before turn the camera around to show Tilly.
Ramsay immeadiately chimed in, demanding: âWhat the hell? Tilly! What are you doing, Matilda?!â

âWeâre on a date. Weâve gone for dinner,â the former Strictly Come Dancing star replied, laughing that she âforgotâ to tell him.
Their co-star Sirieix then did little to placate Ramsay by telling the love birds: âGuys, remember itâs okay to kiss on the first date. If you feel the urge youâve got to do it.â
âMy worst nightmare has come true. Iâm going to be sick,â Ramsay replied with his head in his hands.
He reiterated his feelings when a guest on The Jonathan Ross show, calling it a âf***ing nightmareâ.
While Tilly and Luciano never went official with their romance, DâAcampo enjoyed ribbing Ramsay about it afterwards.
During one appearance on ITVâs This Morning, he told Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby that he took great pleasure in seeing Ramsayâs frustration. He said: "Itâs a great pleasure to know that my son is dating Gordonâs daughter. Just to annoy him, just to really annoy him."
