Ramsay calls £2m truce in feud with his father in law
* Fiery celebrity chef declared war on father in law
* Public spat saw Ramsay’s wife Tana sever ties with her parents
* Truce finally called after pair agree to settlement
A £2million truce was called yesterday in the bitter feud ripping through Gordon Ramsay’s family and business empire.
The celebrity chef had accused his father-in-law Chris Hutcheson of hacking into private emails and plundering £1.4million from his restaurant empire to finance his serial womanising.
Hutcheson, who denied the claims, branded Ramsay a fame-obsessed ‘monster’ and sued him for unfair dismissal and unpaid wages.
Ramsay’s wife Tana sided with her husband and severed ties with her parents after discovering her philandering father had kept a second family secret from her for 30 years.
But the very public spat is now at an end after Ramsay and Hutcheson, his former business partner, friend and close confidant, reached a £2million settlement, although the Kitchen Nightmares star has also run up a huge legal bill.
Ramsay’s publicist, Freud Communications, said: ‘Gordon Ramsay and Gordon Ramsay Holdings have reached a settlement with Chris Hutcheson and other members of the Hutcheson family.
