Gordon Ramsay and Marcus Wareing were once good friends and co-workers, but have since become embroiled in a bitter feud. In the 90s, the chef pair worked together at Ramsay’s legendary restaurant Aubergine, and Wareing was considered by many to be Ramsay’s protégé. However, the pair fell out, with Wareing revealing in a 2019 interview with GQ that he was the one who picked a fight with Ramsay. The chef duo have only seen each other once since their fallout, when they were both invited to 10 Downing Street. In the GQ interview, Wareing recalls the meeting as 'surreal', saying he and Ramsay simply shook hands and said hello, but did not engage in any real conversation.
