Gordon insists affair claims were a lie

Gordon Ramsay has spoken out about last year's affair claims, insisting he's never cheated on his wife, Tana.

Speaking during a party at his new restaurant in West Hollywood, situated inside the London Hotel, Gordon refused to pose for photographs with any women who asked, saying: 'I'm not getting burnt again! As long as there's a gap, they can't take the photograph and say: "Oh look! Here I am with Gordon Ramsay. We had a fling!"'

Acknowledging the claims made by self-proclaimed 'professional mistress' Sarah Symonds, Gordon told the Daily Mail's Baz Bamigboye, 'It never happened! It was completely made up.'

'She set it up to make some money. I heard how she told her friends to "watch out" for a big story concerning her and the big story was her claims that we had an affair.

'Not true! Not true for a minute!'
