Amanda Barrie Accuses Gordon Ramsay of 'Vicious Bullying' in New Memoir

The claims appear in newly published excerpts, with tabloids reporting requests for comment from Ramsay.

Overview

  • Barrie recounts a 2004 Hell's Kitchen clash in which she says she tried to hit Ramsay and then left the series by mutual agreement.
  • Her memoir alleges the show was used to insult and humiliate contestants and claims some were so distressed they needed tranquilisers.
  • She describes Ramsay's behaviour as 'vicious' and alleges he directed abusive remarks at fellow contestant Edwina Currie.
  • Barrie likens Ramsay to Donald Trump, asserting that 'they are both bullies.'
  • The Daily Mail says it has contacted Ramsay's representatives for comment, and separate reports suggest a UK Hell's Kitchen reboot is being discussed.
