Gordon Ramsay takes swipe at Marco Pierre White for Hell’s Kitchen

Hell’s Kitchen host Gordon Ramsay has taken a sensational swipe at his counterpart Marco Pierre White. 

The hot-headed celebrity chef didn’t mince words when it came to his fellow UK chef, who hosted the Australian version of the show.  

Speaking to The Sunday Telegraph, the 51-year-old hit out at the show’s lacklustre premiere Down Under by the Seven network.

‘The f**k up he made of Hell’s Kitchen was embarrassing’: Hot-headed chef Gordon Ramsay has taken a swipe at Marco Pierre White after his Hell’s Kitchen failure

‘The f**k up he made of Hell’s Kitchen was embarrassing,’ straight-talking Gordon said of Marco and his role on the Australian-version of the show. 

Gordon continued his vitriolic spray, hitting out at the chef for launching the show with the opening line: ‘I made Gordon Ramsay cry.’

He started: ‘Yeah, you made me cry with laughter, you f**ker. I’m still laughing my head off now.’ 

Daily Mail Australia have reached out for comment from Channel Seven and chef Marco Pierre White.

In the wide-ranging interview, Gordon took aim at the former MasterChef guest judge for his high-profile spat with food critic Matt Preston.

Matt made comments about the Michelin-starred chef’s son, after the then 22-year-old admitted to drug use and paying for sex.

Marco then defected to Hell’s Kitchen from MasterChef, which was on a rival network.

Despite the upset, however, in a rare moment of gushing the explosive blonde chef praised MasterChef hosts Gary Mehigan, Matt Preston and George Calombaris. 

‘Gary is a Brit and we go back a long way. Matt, as you know, is a true bon vivant with an amazing palette; and George is a professor who wants to keep everyone on their toes.’ 

Despite Hell’s Kitchen being a major ratings winner in the US, the local version attracted a less-than-impressive crowd to it. 

Its season finale was beaten by renovation show, The Block, with a number of viewers slamming it on social media.

Marco was accused of being ‘boring’, while other fans said the show was ‘butchered’ by the Seven network and was ‘fu**ing boring’.
