Gordon Ramsay has sent a message of congratulations to Collingwood after the Magpies’ AFL grand final victory on Saturday.
Celebrity chef Ramsay, 56, paid the Pies a visit earlier this year after hitting Melbourne for some filming, and was watching on from afar as Craig McRae’s side defeated Brisbane at the MCG.
The Hell’s Kitchen star took to Twitter, now known as X, to congratulate the footy club after ending their 13-year wait for the flag.
‘Well done!! Happy to have cheered you guys on earlier this year!’ he posted.
Back in May, the Scottish native could not wipe the smile off his face as he posed up a storm with the team and received a signed Magpies jersey.
