Tilly Ramsay ‘feels so lucky’ to be a big sister again after Gordon, 57, became a father for the sixth time – as she shares sweet snaps with newborn

Tilly Ramsay has said she is ‘so happy’ to be a big sister again after her dad Gordon became a father for the sixth time.

The Strictly star, 22, shared sweet snaps of herself cradling her new baby brother Jesse James as he snuggled up in a blanket.

Tilly gently kissed Jesse on the forehead as he wore a pink and blue striped hat, revealing his little fingers and toes.

She wrote on Instagram: ‘Welcome to the world Jesse James Ramsay!! I feel so lucky to have a great brother and a big sister again!!”

Gordon and Tana are already parents to five children: Megan, 25, twins Jack and Holly, 23, Tilly and Oscar, four.

The couple, who married in 1996, kept Tana’s last pregnancy a secret.

The celebrity chef, 57, posted a heartwarming photo of him kissing his newborn on the head as Tana, 49, cradled him in her arms.

Gordon shared the announcement on Instagram, saying the birth was a “great birthday present” as his birthday falls on November 8 – which he actually shares with Tilly.

He wrote: ‘What a great birthday present, please welcome Jesse James Ramsay, 7 lb stunner!! Another bundle of love for the Ramsay Brigade!! 3 boys, 3 girls…. Finished.’

Tilly’s sister Holly also shared an adorable video of herself holding Jesse, writing: ‘Welcome to the world Jesse James. I’m a big sister again and my heart is so full.

‘@tanaramsay you are a rock star ⭐️.’

In September, Gordon admitted he was under pressure from Tana to have a sixth child, but said he was against the idea, dismissing any suspicions that they were expecting another child.

Speaking to Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett on the Dish podcast, Gordon confessed: ‘I have a little secret… Tana wants another one.’

But he admitted he is reluctant to have another baby because the family would need “two buses” and he would be older than the other parents at the school.

He said: ‘It’s like going to school and eating out on two buses. And secondly, I’m going to be the oldest f***er in school. “Who’s your grandpa?”

‘And what about sports day? The egg and spoon race. What am I going to do? So I would like another one, but no.”

Gordon also told how his youngest child, Oscar, is quickly following in his father’s footsteps after complaining about the food at his school during his first week.

He said: ‘He wouldn’t wear his blazer. He said, “Daddy, it itches too much.” And he said ‘the food is s***’.

“I said, son, BYO. He said, ‘What does that mean?’ I said, ‘Bring your damn own.’ So he has his own lunch box, everything is prepared, he has his finger sandwiches.”

Despite not being willing to grow his brood, Gordon admitted that his fathering skills have improved with each child.

He explained, “Everything you did wrong the first time, you do so much better. He grows up with so many buttons. He’s like a little adult when he’s four because he has four big brothers and sisters that he obeys.”

During the coronavirus pandemic, Gordon admitted that Tana was keen to expand their family and took the opportunity of lockdown to give it a go.

Speaking to Jimmy Fallon, he said: ‘Literally two hours ago our Prime Minister announced that we are now in lockdown until February 15th.

‘So [Tana] said we have good news. You’re up late talking to Jimmy. Tomorrow night we’ll go for number six!’

Tana also previously admitted that she wants more children in 2021, telling Hello! magazine: ‘You know, the problem is that I love babies so much, but I think I’ll still be saying that when I’m in my seventies!’

However, she added: ‘I don’t think there will ever be a time when I’ll say, “Oh my god, never, ever again.”

“But let’s just say I count my blessings and think I’m extremely lucky. I’m just loving every moment of this.”
