London, Nov 29 (ANI): Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay left people around him laughing their heads off when he cracked jokes about his alleged seven-year affair with Sarah Symonds on a TV show.

The 42yr-olds cookery demonstration at the BBC’’s Good Food Show in Birmingham was his first appearance in public since it was alleged that he had a long-term affair with Sarah, and he appeared very jovial during the show.

What a week I have had. I want to give you a big thank you for coming - it’’s been a tough week, the Telegraph quoted him as saying.

If things go wrong and something slips out like Oh f*** me, I dont mean it literally. Its because its gone wrong, he joked.

He even made a joke about his chef rival Delia Smith, who recently published a book, titled How to Cheat at Cooking, and also revealed that she once kissed on the cheek when he was in disguise.

I have been up close and personal with Mrs Smith - Delia. I got in there, he said.

She gave me a book about how to cheat - but I didn”t think anything of it at the time.

I wanted to show her my spotted dick recipe.

Time for desserts. No jokes, its time for hot banana, he added. (ANI)
