Gordon Ramsay couldn’t resist having a pop at his former colleague Gino D’Acampo.
The Hell’s Kitchen frontman, 56, remarks come after This Morning chef Gino, 46, announced he would be quitting the ITV series due to scheduling conflicts.
In the latest episode of Spencer Matthews’ podcast Big Fish, Gordon gave insight into his relationship with the Family Fortunes presenter and Fred Sirieix
‘They are great, they are wonderful, fantastic, incredible pain in the a***s,’ he quipped.
‘They’re so f***ing lazy, they make me look good. An hour in Gino wants an Espresso, or he wants his eyebrows plucked. Ninety minutes in, Fred’s missing his croissant and his eyeliner.’
Turning his attention to Gino, he continued: ‘His pizzas are s**t anyway and he knows that.
‘He knows that my pizzas are better than his pizzas. My dough is fresh, it’s proven and er, he knows when he bites into my pizza that it’s better than his. He’ll never admit it.’
This comes after it was reported Gino was said to have ‘blindsided’ his co-stars following his exit from Gordon, Gino and Fred’s Road Trip.
The travel series sees the trio travel to countries including Morocco, America, and Greece to soak up the culture and sample the local cuisine.
The insider said: ‘Gordon and Fred are obviously quite frustrated and couldn’t kowtow to his requests. It all seemed a bit ludicrous. At the moment things are pretty tense between them.’
‘Gino, who loves a party, wanted all sorts of caveats put into his contract around working hours so that he could effectively stay up late and have a bit of a lie-in before filming. He doesn’t like early starts — and made that clear.
‘He also didn’t want to work more than six months of the year which, given the tight schedules they all have, was never going to be practical,’ the source added to The Sun.
Gordon, Gino & Fred: Road Trip is available to watch on ITVX.
