Gordon Ramsay has been married to his wife, Tana Ramsay, for well over two decades. The couple are parents to five children. Their eldest daughter, Megan, was born to them in 1998. A year later, in 1999, they had fraternal twins Jack and Holly. Their daughter Matilda was born in 2001, and they welcomed their youngest, Oscar, in 2019.
But in 2016, the family suffered a devastating loss that changed them. The world-famous chef had shared a black-and-white picture of him and his wife at the European Tour of the Iron Man and wrote down what had happened to them.
He began by thanking fans for the support they had shown him and his wife in the last few weeks. Then he revealed to them what had happened, he said, “We had a devastating weekend as Tana has sadly miscarried our son at five months.”
Four years later, Tara Ramsay finally opened up about what she went through. In November 2020, she spoke about the experience in an interview. This happened after Chrissy Teigen publicly shared the news of her own miscarriage in 2020 and was open and honest about the entire ordeal on social media. As a result of being so candid about the entire experience, she faced a lot of backlash.
Tara Ramsay went out of her way to support Chrissy Teigen and even praised her for her honesty. She said, “I find it very emotional and I thought she was amazing. When I read about her situation, I didn’t know the ins and outs, but certainly, a lot of it sounded incredibly similar to mine.”
She added, “It brings it all back and I think she was amazing for talking about it and posting the photos that she did.”
