Gordon Ramsay’s feud with Brooklyn Beckham could reportedly escalate further due to a new career venture.
The TV chef and his wife Tana are famously close to David and Victoria Beckham, whom Brooklyn slammed in a scathing statement earlier this year.
Ramsay previously shared his hopes that Brooklyn could reconcile with his parents - before adding that he should “take a good look at himself”.
Brooklyn responded by unfollowing the Hell’s Kitchen star on social media and continues to be estranged from his family.
Now, it’s been claimed Gordon has trademarked Hotter Than Hell by Gordon Ramsay - the name of the spicy sauces he uses for the dishes in his restaurants.
This suggests he is planning to sell bottles of the relish to customers, which would put him in competition with Brooklyn’s own hot sauce brand Cloud23, The Sun reported.
“If Gordon is launching his own sauce, he’ll be going up against Brooklyn in that market,” a source told the outlet.
“Things will get spicy if they end up clashing over it.”
Brooklyn set up Cloud23 in 2024 and has since clocked up 92,000 followers on its Instagram page.
He regularly promotes his two sauces, Sweet Jalapeño and Hot Habanero, which he sells at Whole Foods in the US and the UK and online for £15 a bottle, by using them in recipes on his own personal Instagram account.
Evening Standard has contacted Ramsay’s representative for comment.
In February, Ramsay said he has messaged Brooklyn "a little bit", adding that Victoria is "upset" and he knows "just how much David loves Brooklyn".
He described the aspiring cook as "an amazing young man" who is "desperate to forge his own way", but added that one day "the penny will drop", The Sun reported.

Gordon said: "I've seen first-hand just how good parents they are... They've both put so much energy into their kids, and I know just how many times they've got Brooklyn out of the s***.
"I think it's going to be a matter of time before Brooklyn takes a good look at himself and understands just what his parents mean to him.
"Remember where you came from. And honestly, one day you're not going to have your mum and dad, and you need to understand that."
Hours later, Brooklyn stopped following the TV cook on Instagram.
The eldest Beckham child shocked the world in January when he said he did not want to reconcile with his parents in a six-page Instagram statement, after blocking his brothers and parents on social media.
Ramsay refuted Brooklyn's claim that his mother danced "inappropriately" with him at his 2022 wedding to Nicola Peltz.
According to Ramsay, there was "nothing salacious" and when asked about grinding, said there was "nothing of the sort".
Ramsay knows something about family feuds as his daughter Holly’s nuptials with Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty last December were overshadowed by headlines the groom’s mother Caroline was banned from the ceremony.
