Gordon Ramsay’s 21-year-old daughter Holly Ramsay is celebrating one year sober.
Holly took to Instagram on Tuesday to share her achievement with her 280,000 followers.
The TV chef’s child wrote a length paragraph about her relationship with alcohol.
The fashion design student admitted she stopped drinking alcohol during her “lowest” point last year.
Holly is determined to spread awareness about mental health issues and explained how booze and anti-depressants “don’t mix well.”
She penned: “For anyone who needs this. Continue to take it day by day, as will I.”
The statement in full reads: “Today marks one year without alcohol.

“This is not something I thought I would ever say at the age of 21. However, by 21 (nearly 22) I never thought I would’ve been through half of what I have.
“I choose to take a break from alcohol because it wasn’t improving my mental health – which for me, comes first.”
The podcast creator went on to reveal the lifestyle change isn’t necessarily permanent.

She continued: “This time last year I was at my lowest and I was scared but I made a decision to take control of what I could – and that meant removing alcohol from my life,” the 21 & Over with Holly host confesses.
“It was not an easy decision, nor one that I have taken lightly. I won’t say this is forever, but this is for now. Living without alcohol has helped me feel better and more present both mentally and physically.

“Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had a year of high highs and low lows but I’m grateful I have myself the chance to work through them consciously rather mask my feelings (good and bad) with a drink.”
Earlier this year, Holly bravely spoke out about being sexual assaulted.
She told her podcast listened how she was being affected by PTSD and was diagnosed with anxiety and depression afterwards too.

Holly ends her inspirational statement by adding: “As with everything I have been through, it has been a learning experience and I feel lucky to be able to post this message today, to continue to spread awareness and break the stigma surrounding mental health.”
Holly was congratulated by fans and friends including former Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson’s daughter Emily Clarkson who commented: “Well done angel. You have so much power.”
Holly is one of five children, Meghan 23, twin brother Jack, 21, Strictly Come Dancing star Tilly, 20 and Oscar, two, to celebrity chef Gordon and Tana Ramsay.
