They’re young, they love to cook and they just happen to have a world-famous chef for a mother or father!
Growing up with a famous chef as a parent must be an exciting experience. Just imagine enjoying a variety of delicious meals prepared exclusively for you with first-hand cooking lessons right at home. It’s no surprise that the children of these celebrity chefs are naturally inclined towards pursuing careers in food.
Discover which celebrity chefs have kids who seem to be following in their footsteps:
Jamie Oliver’s son, Buddy
Already popular on YouTube, it is hoped the 12-year-old could help inspire other children to learn to cook. Cheerful Buddy regularly joins his star dad in his cooking tutorials on social media and even shares his own recipes with fans. Buddy’s hidden-veg meatballs and easy pizzas were a huge hit.
Gordon Ramsay’s daughter, Tilly
The 22-year-old daughter of top chef Gordon Ramsay is carving quite the career for herself already! Tilly, full name Matilda, has made several appearances on TV alongside her famous dad to showcase her cooking skills, and she’s even published her own recipe book, Tilly’s Kitchen Takeover. Recently announced, Tilly will lead the way as the host of a cooking show called Dish It Out. In each episode of Dish It Out, Tilly Ramsay will receive a mystery box of goods from various chefs and home cooks throughout the world, which she will use to prepare a recipe.
Tom Kerridge’s son Acey
Celebrity chef Tom Kerridge is known for his many TV shows and successful restaurants, which include the famous Hand and Flowers pub in the Buckinghamshire town of Marlow – the only British pub to have two Michelin stars.
Tom, who is married to sculptor Beth Cullen-Kerridge and has an 8-year-old son Acey, shared in an interview with Hello Magazine how much his son loves doing a job. “He’s really interested in a job, he loves a job, something to do. He’s interested in the process of cooking because it’s a job. He loves having something to do all the time,” Tom shared.
Bill Granger’s daughter, Inès
The daughter of world-renowned Australian chef Bill Granger who died on Christmas Day at the age of 54 is continuing his legacy with her shared passion for cooking. Like her father, Inès is a cooking enthusiast and has an Instagram page dedicated to her culinary creations.
Padma Lakshmi’s daughter, Krishna
Padma Lakshmi has a celebrated career as a model, cookbook author, and TV personality – and it looks like her daughter, Krishna, may be mapping out a future just like her mom.
The Top Chef host, 53, completed season two of her Hulu series, Taste Nation, back in 2023 – in which she explores America’s many food cultures and their histories. Krishna was featured in some of the first season’s episodes, suggesting she has an inquisitive culinary taste like Padma, and also a knack for being in front of the camera.
