Gordon Ramsay Has Suddenly Gone From Idiot Sandwich To Thirst Trap

When exactly did the shift to Daddy Gordon happen?

MasterChef Australia has made a hell of a return with its 2020 season and topped things off with a much-welcomed dash of Gordon Ramsay profanity-laden antics on top of the usual proceedings.

Maybe iso has cleared everyone’s eyes up or something. Whatever the explanation is, the newfound thirst for Gordon Ramsay has only been a win-win for everyone as MasterChef Australia is killing it and he gets to revel in being 2020’s surprise thirst trap.
