The radio conversation took a turn, however, when Theakston made a query about how many children Ramsay has.

“Last time I looked, there was five,” Ramsay answered, then added: “There could be one more on the way.”

Both Theakston and Holden reacted with shock: “What?”

“Tana’s jeans aren’t fitting her,” Ramsay replied, deadpan.

“Is it Christmas, or is it a baby?” Holden exclaimed.

“I’m going to Boots on the way back from here and I’ll double check,” Gordon noted, presumably alluding to picking up a home pregnancy test from the local drugstore.

When pressed further, Ramsay admitted his wife isn’t averse to the idea of another child, but that he himself isn’t on board. “Tana would like another baby and I’m like, ‘no no no’,” he stated.

He cited the reasoning that he’s already on the older side in relation to his youngest kid, 3-year-old son Oscar. “It’s already hard enough when I take Oscar to school, ‘Hey what’s your grandad’s name?'”

But it seems it is just a joke — or some wishful thinking — as a source has confirmed to PEOPLE that the couple is not actually expecting.
