Woman who claimed to have 7-year affair with Gordon Ramsay says Christmas is most miserable time
The woman who claimed to have had a seven-year affair with Gordon Ramsay revealed why the Christmas holidays are the most miserable time of the year.
Sarah Symonds was in her 30s when she supposedly snuck around with the TV chef. She discussed how lonely Christmas got for her as she couldn’t spend it with the Kitchen Nightmares star – who has been married to wife and the mother of his six children, Tana Ramsay, since 1996.
She claimed it was her ‘longest, albeit unwisest’ romance with a man and, in the years she spent with him, Christmases were spent alone. “At 37, our relationship was the longest, albeit unwisest, I’d ever had with a man (and is, in fact, still the longest relationship I’ve ever been in),” Sarah claimed.
“But the passion I felt went hand-in-hand with feelings of acute loneliness. I’d spent the previous six Christmases by myself, never once getting to wake up on Christmas morning lying next to the man I’d fallen for, and now here I was again. Alone.”
Writing for MailOnline, she added: “Christmas is soul-sappingly miserable when you’re involved with a married man. However much you believe they care for you, it’s their wife they always go back to on this the most magical day of the year.” The Mirror has contacted Gordon’s reps for comment.
The allegation of an affair was first made public in 2008 when it was published by the News of the World. At the time, he vehemently denied the allegations made by Sarah and told a cookery audience for the BBC Good Food Show in Birmingham: “If I was going to cheat it wouldn’t be with a complete slapper.”
He also said: “What a week I’ve had. My Mum is in here tonight so I’m on my best behaviour, ooh la la. Oh, f*** it. I didn’t do it, Mum, I love you.”

In her book, widely believed to be about Gordon, Sarah wrote: “He complained to my friend that things weren’t going well between him and his wife and that he was made to sleep in the basement.”
Sarah also alleged: “I remain mystified to this day what Gordon, who professes to be a happily married man, was doing at a nightclub at 2am.”
