Former Ramsay Staffer Recalls Beckham’s Courteous Gesture at Private Dinner

The single-source account from an Insider interview is being recirculated alongside mentions of his recent knighthood.

Overview

  • Tash Pericic, a former assistant manager at Gordon Ramsay’s Maze Grill in London, said David Beckham was the only guest to introduce himself to kitchen staff during a private Christmas dinner at Ramsay’s home.
  • Pericic characterized the interaction as meaningful for hospitality workers, calling it “a small gesture, but it says a lot.”
  • The anecdote originates from Pericic’s interview with Insider and was amplified today by outlets including the Mirror, the Daily Record and Gloucestershire Live.
  • Coverage places the story within Beckham’s long friendship with Ramsay, which began in 2006 and deepened after both families spent time in Los Angeles.
  • Beckham was knighted earlier this month by King Charles III at Windsor Castle and was later photographed leaving Ramsay’s Michelin-starred restaurant in Chelsea.
