The British television personality marked the milestone with a black-and-white Instagram snap, revealing his muscular build and defined abs while posing for the camera.

And judging by the reaction, fans were more than a little impressed with how the famous chef is looking at 60.

Ramsay shared the photograph alongside a message thanking his followers for their birthday wishes.

“Thank you everyone for the incredible birthday messages,” he wrote. “Day 2 of being 60……LFG!!!!”

The post quickly attracted attention, with fans flooding the comments section to praise his appearance and make jokes about the chef’s unexpected ‘thirst trap’.

One person admitted: “Better shape than me and I’m in my 30s.”

Another joked: “Chef Gordo shredded”

A third delivered a particularly fitting cooking reference, writing: “JUST BECAUSE HE’S NOT IN THE KITCHEN DOESN’T MEAN HE AIN’T COOKING”

Someone else added: “Chef is looking lamb SAUCED”

And one follower appeared concerned that Ramsay’s latest photograph might attract a little too much attention at home, writing: “Gordon please, my wife is on here bro.”

The playful responses showed a different side to the famously outspoken chef, who is best known for his fiery personality and demanding standards in the kitchen.

But at 60 years old, the celebrity chef is proving that he can still turn up the heat without going anywhere near a kitchen.

Happy birthday, chef!
