Gordon Ramsay has broken his silence after becoming a father for the sixth time earlier this month.
The celebrity chef, 57, welcomed son Jesse James into the world with wife Tana, 49, on his birthday, November 8.
Gordon told Entertainment Tonight of the new arrival: ‘Extraordinary. Really Extraordinary, just blessed.’
The TV star went on to joke about being the oldest parent at school when the time comes for Jesse to start classes, so he’s planning to go in disguise.
He added: ‘I’m also sure I’ll be the oldest dad at the drop-off at school, so I’ll keep my cap and glasses on.’

The couple are already parents to Megan, 25, twins Holly and Jack, 23, Tilly, 22, and Oscar, four.
Gordon made the surprise announcement earlier this month that Tana – who he married in 1996 – had given birth to their son.
In a post on 11 November, three days after he turned 57, the chef wrote on Instagram: ‘What an amazing birthday present please welcome Jesse James Ramsay, 7lbs 10oz whopper!! One more bundle of love to the Ramsay brigade!! 3 boys, 3 girls…. Done’
The Hell’s Kitchen star shared the news alongside a series of adorable images of the family in the hospital.
Gordon was soon inundated with congratulatory messages from fellow faces in the comments section of the post.
Wolverine star Hugh Jackman wrote: ‘Congrats mate!’ whilst Paris Fury – who is married to boxing champion Tyson Fury and has seven children with him – sent her best wishes.
She wrote: ‘Congratulations to you all. Was thinking it the other day it can’t be long. Best blessings xxxx’
The couple, who married in 1996, kept Tana’s latest pregnancy a secret.
