Ramsay: 'Posh only eats steamed food'

Gordon Ramsay has claimed that Victoria Beckham's size zero figure is down to the fact that she only eats steamed food.

The TV chef told the Press Association that Beckham's diet would guarantee weight loss.

"She does eat, but everything's steamed," he remarked. "If you went forward for just a week of potatoes and veg and carrots and leeks and fish and everything was steamed, it wouldn't be the most amazing food you've ever tasted but I can guarantee you'd lose weight."

Ramsay reaffirmed his plans to open a restaurant with Beckham, joking that he wants to see the Spice Girl work in the kitchen for a day.

"We spoke about it last month in LA when we went for dinner in Napa Valley," he revealed. "I was laughing and said, 'Look, I'll open it provided you spend a day in the kitchen, Victoria'. Can you imagine? No-one would get f***ing fed!

"So, we spoke about it and we're looking at some exciting ideas so as that evolves, I'll keep you posted. It'll be something British in LA or New York - it depends."
