For most people, growing up as the daughter of Gordon Ramsay—the world-renowned, sharp-tongued Michelin-starred chef—might sound intimidating. But for Matilda “Tilly” Ramsay, it’s been a source of inspiration. At just 23 years old, Tilly is proving she’s not just her father’s daughter; she’s a rising star in her own right, blending charm, talent, and an infectious love of food that’s winning hearts across generations.
Tilly first captured the public’s attention with her warm personality and cooking skills on Matilda and the Ramsay Bunch, a family-friendly cooking and adventure show that aired on CBBC. The series showcased not only her culinary abilities but also the unique dynamic of the Ramsay household. While Gordon’s kitchen presence is famously intense, Tilly’s style is approachable and playful — she turns cooking into fun rather than fury.
Her natural charisma soon opened doors beyond the kitchen. In 2021, Tilly competed on Strictly Come Dancing (the UK’s version of Dancing with the Stars), where she dazzled audiences with her energy, grace, and sense of humor. Despite her busy schedule, she continued to share cooking videos on social media, often featuring her father in lighthearted, comedic clips that highlighted their close relationship.
But make no mistake — Tilly is serious about food. Having grown up surrounded by the culinary world, she’s spent years learning from the best, both inside and outside her family kitchen. She’s developed a style that celebrates accessibility and joy — recipes that young cooks can follow without intimidation. Her debut cookbook, Matilda & The Ramsay Bunch: Tilly’s Kitchen Takeover, encourages families to cook together, emphasizing that good food is about connection as much as it is about taste.
Recently, Tilly has been stepping further into the global culinary spotlight. She’s made guest appearances on Next Level Chef, joining her father on set, and fans have noticed how naturally she fits into the high-pressure environment. Where Gordon brings intensity, Tilly brings warmth — a balance that many believe could make her a major television presence in the future.
Despite her fame, Tilly remains grounded. She often credits her parents for teaching her the value of hard work and humility. On social media, she advocates for body positivity and mental health awareness, particularly among young women navigating public life.
As she continues to grow as both a chef and a media personality, Tilly Ramsay represents the next generation of the Ramsay legacy — confident, kind, and refreshingly authentic. She’s proving that she doesn’t need to outcook her father to make her mark; she’s doing it her own way, one joyful recipe at a time.
