Gordon Ramsay father-in-law 'has second mistress'

Gordon Ramsay's father-in-law has allegedly been linked to a second secret family.

Chris Hutcheson is said to have enjoyed "a husband and wife-style ­relationship" with 50-year-old Sara Stewart since the death of her spouse in 2004 and paid to put her four children through private school.

The revelation follows reports that Hutcheson fathered two children with Frances Collins during his 42-year marriage to wife Greta, the mother of Ramsay's partner Tana.

Hutcheson's alleged romance with Stewart emerged during a High Court case in which Ramsay accused his father-in-law of hacking his emails.

The 62-year-old was reported to have sent Stewart hacked emails relating to their relationship, which she claimed she had an obligation to see.

"Chris and Sara were living a husband and wife relationship for years. The only person who didn't seem to know was his legitimate ­family," a source told the Sunday Mirror.

"I remember many ­occasions Tana called into the office and Sara was there. But Tana had no idea what her father was up to."

Hutcheson quit his position as chief executive of Gordon Ramsay Holdings in October, sparking a family feud that has seen the Kitchen Nightmares star and Tana become estranged from her parents.

However, the couple are now said to be happy to cut all ties with Hutcheson after the "irreparable damage" caused by his secret families.

"Gordon and Tana couldn't believe what they found out," a friend added. "Chris's secret life has caused irreparable damage. Gordon and Tana will never talk to Chris again."
