Gordon Ramsay has been forced to take out bumper loans to secure the future of his restaurant empire amid the pandemic's dramatic effect on the economy.
The multi-millionaire chef, 53, has registered charges with Barclays against 16 firms, which includes those managing some of his Michelin star restaurants, according to Sun Online.
The TV star is set to take advantage of the government's crisis loan scheme, Companies House papers indicate. And those firms include companies that run his three-Michelin-star Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, one-Michelin-star Petrus and the Savoy Grill.
The father-of-five - who's worth a whopping £185 million - also took out two other loans for Bread Street Kitchen, Heddon Street Kitchen, London House, Union Street
