Gordon Ramsay boils over dad-in-law

Hotheaded chef Gordon Ramsay isn’t over the bitter feud with his father-in-law and former business partner Chris Hutcheson. “First my father let me down, and then my father-in-law let me down. In a sense, I’ve had two [bleep] dads,” the celebrity chef tells Men’s Journal, out tomorrow. Ramsay won $392,875 in a legal battle against Hutcheson after learning he’d been hacking into the chef’s e-mails. He also accused Hutcheson of wrongly withdrawing more than $2 million from company accounts. Hutcheson denied the claim and sued Ramsay; they settled when Ramsay bought out his share. But Ramsay is still seething that Hutcheson had mistresses and another secret family. He says Hutcheson would call saying he was in France while a private eye Ramsay hired would report, “ ‘He just landed at Heathrow, and he’s being picked up by a blonde.’ ” Adds Ramsay, “What kind of evil [bleep] would you be, to [bleep] on your family to that extent and bring in this new family that had been hidden for 20 years?”
