on relationships Gordon doesn't just have a strict way of raising his children he's also pretty rigid when it comes to his marriage to he and his wife Tana had an unusual start to their partnership and an interview Gordon claimed that the secret to their great relationship is they never over indulge in each other's company so what does that mean exactly well for the first eight years of their relationship they only spent one night a week together Gordon was busy working long hours to further his career and Tana didn't seem to mind but that's not the only part of their marriage that has raised eyebrows when Tana gave birth to their four children Gordon was nowhere in sight before she went into labor they discussed the possibility of Gordon skipping out on the labor and delivery he said he would feel too squeamish if he had to be in the room to watch the entire labor process thankfully Tana was very understanding of his wishes she let him know that she didn't want him in the delivery room with her anyway even though many couples may see this as unconventional and a bit weird it worked out well for the Ramseys their relationship is now stronger than ever his cosmetic surgery being in front of the cameras all the time can sometimes cause more harm than good when some celeb see themselves on TV and on the big screen they're their own worst critics this is why plastic surgery is very common in Hollywood everyone's chasing perfection and they want to look their best at all times while some celebs keep their plastic surgery secrets to themselves Gordon has always been open and honest about the work he has had done when he first appeared on TV screens you probably remember him looking a lot like this he had deep wrinkles in his forehead and a scar on his chin in 2009 he decided it was time to have a cosmetic surgeon do some work on his face because he was tired of everyone focusing on his looks his children would always make comments about his wrinkles and he admitted the lines on his skin were pretty horrific it was fellow television personalities Simon Cowell who convinced him to see a doctor Gordon went in and a laser treatment was done and his skin's condition dramatically improved but if you think Gordon will now be heading to the surgeon's office to get more work done you're wrong the chef said that was the first and last procedure he'll ever go through the food he'll never eat he'll try anything at least once but there's one type of food he'll never touch can you guess what it is before we give you the answer we have to tell you the back story on why Gordon is picky about this certain type of food the chef's spent many years developing the in-flight menus for Singapore Airlines he also spends a lot of time jet-setting across the world with his family before boarding a plane in his hometown he's able to enjoy a meal at his restaurant playing food that's located at London's Heathrow Airport he chooses a light preflight snack of Italian meats sliced apples or pears Parmesan cheese and a glass of wine but once he steps foot on an airplane Gordon won't take another bite of food he says there's no way he'd ever eat food on a plane and here's why since he worked for Singapore Airlines for so long he knows all about the condition airline food is Captain before it's handed to passengers he knows where the food has been where it's going and how long it was sitting out before it was brought on the plane he didn't give any further details but just that tidbit of information is more than enough for us to cut him some slack does Gordon make you want to hold off on eating airplane food to his sons dream while his daughter Matilda is following in his footsteps to become a chef his son Jack has
