Gordon Ramsay praised for 'thirst trap' as he shows off physique days after turning 60
Gordon Ramsay is well and truly in possession of the lamb sauce, serving up an impressively chiselled physique in celebration of his 60th.
The dad-of-six, who holds nine Michelin stars across his restaurant group, celebrated his milestone birthday by giving fans a special order of ‘thirst trap’.
In a black-and-white photo, Ramsay poses topless in a bodysuit pulled down to his hips – easy there, Gordon.
“Thank you everyone for the incredible birthday messages!” the Hell's Kitchen star wrote in the caption.

“Day 2 of being 60……LFG !!!!”
Fans were particularly appreciative of the post, with one person commenting: “Chef is looking lamb SAUCED.”
Another wrote: “JUST BECAUSE HE'S NOT IN THE KITCHEN DOESN'T MEAN HE AIN'T COOKING.”
“He’s still staring at me even when I open the comments,” a third added.
While a fourth penned: “Crazy to post a thirst trap as the first birthday post.”
“Damn bro. Way to make us all feel out of shape. Lol,” someone else said.
After his 40th birthday, Ramsay decided to get in shape in a big way, competing at the Ironman World Championships in 2013.
“Anywhere I go, whether it’s a swim, a bike ride, or even a walk — keeping fit is essential. A healthy lifestyle leads a healthy life. And the energy you get from even a 20-minute training session, not necessarily every day but every other day, adding just 1% to that, gets you to where you want to go,” Ramsay, who has since completed multiple half-Ironmans, told Men’s Health in 2024, prior to his brutal dig at the 'Ozempic menu' concept.
After starting out with a protein shake for breakfast, his lunch is generally scrambled eggs and dinner is chicken or fish, preferably poached and not boiled.
“Boiling it is going to give it a texture like ******* Gandhi’s flip-flop,” he said, as he focuses on eating small amounts throughout the day.
“You’re lethargic after you’ve eaten, right? You’ve got to stay on your toes. It’s like a ballerina — tiny little mouthfuls, tiny little tastings.”
The celebrity chef said to Business Traveler in September that his next goal is to finish the 2027 London Marathon in under three and a half hours.
“I want to run a marathon faster in my 60s than I did in my 30s,” Ramsay said. “Just to prove that you can do that kind of stuff.
“I missed my sub-3.30 by 15 seconds, because guys like you were sticking a microphone in my face. If I hadn’t done two interviews, I would have made it. It’s still bugging me today. So I’m going to go sub-3.30 in next year’s London Marathon.”
