On Friday, Gordon Ramsay’s RIB boat was photographed in a less-than-ideal state, covered in bird droppings. The 55-year-old TV chef’s vessel, which is moored near his two opulent homes in Cornwall, appears to have attracted quite a bit of attention from the local seagull population.

The boat had last seen use by Ramsay’s children, Jack, Holly (22), and Tilly (20), who enjoyed a chilly day out on the water in April 2021. At the time, Jack was spotted in turquoise swimming shorts, waving cheerfully from the boat’s bow, while Holly and Tilly relaxed at the back. Their outing was followed by a return to the jetty, where they disembarked.

The sight of the boat, now splattered with bird droppings, contrasts sharply with the family’s previous seaside adventures. The Ramsays have spent a considerable amount of time at their Cornwall retreats during lockdown, making the state of the boat all the more noticeable.

Recently, Jack Ramsay made headlines for a different reason. At the Titan festival near Polzeath, he was seen in a heated exchange with security after becoming irate over a missed burger order. Jack reportedly lashed out at a festival-goer who had taken his unclaimed burger, calling him “f***ing scum” and getting into an altercation that escalated into a brawl.

The festival-goer recounted the incident, stating that Jack’s reaction to the burger being taken was disproportionately aggressive, involving an exchange of insults and physical confrontation. The situation apparently got out of hand, leading to security intervention.

Despite this drama, the Ramsay family continues to enjoy their time in Cornwall, though it seems their boat’s current state may serve as a reminder of the area’s more chaotic elements.
