Telly chef Gordon Ramsay is already in the bad books after infuriating Cornish locals, and it looks like his latest social media post will anger his neighbours once again.
The 52-year-old star has risked the wrath of people in the local area of his second home by bragging about a 26-mile bike ride on Instagram.
Gordon and his family irked residents after moving into his £4.4million second home in the West Country during the coronavirus pandemic.
Last weekend, there was further backlash when the Hell’s Kitchen chef enjoyed a long, scenic bike ride around Cornwall, ending up 22 miles away from home despite government guidelines, which states people should only go for one hour of exercise a day near their homes.
But Gordon is refusing to let the controversy hold him back, taking to social media over the weekend to reveal that he’d done it again.
Posing for a snap behind his bike alongside his youngest son Oscar, Gordon penned: “Sunday funday 26.2 miles DONE !
“Thinking about all those charities missing out on today’s London Marathon, trust me we will make up for in October especially with my little mascot”.
The London Marathon was one of the big events to be postponed due to the social-distancing measures during the Covid-19 crisis.
While some of Gordon’s fans rushed to their keyboards to gush about his lookalike son Oscar, others were shocked that Gordon had been for a massive bike ride amid the lockdown.

One wrote: “Get yourself back in the house, what the f**k.”
Another added: “Did you do that in your one hour allowance?”
A third poked fun at the ongoing drama, joking: “What would the neighbours say?”
Government advice during the global health crisis is for everybody to stay home unless absolutely essential.

Chancellor Michael Gove previously said that outdoor exercise should be limited to one hour a day while the nation remains in lockdown.
Earlier this month, one of Gordon’s neighbours vented his anger after he, wife Tana, and their children 21-year-old Meghan, 20-year-old twins Holly and Jack,Tilly, 17, and baby Oscar relocated to their West Country mansion at the start of lockdown.
Writing on social media, the local seethed: “Don’t you realise that by doing that you’ve possibly brought the virus with you and because Cornwall is not your main residence, if you and your family get sick you will place yet more strain on an already fragile infrastructure.”
