In his latest interview, Ramsay shared that he barely has time to himself what with being a father of six now and joked that he looks forward to hopefully having a day off soon.

“Honestly, the holidays is the worst time for any chef because we go to the restaurant, it’s super busy," Ramsay toldET.“You go back home. It’s super busy. And the Ramsay household is like running a restaurant where no one goes home. “

“Breakfast, lunch and dinner. ‘Dad, can we have that prime rib tonight?’ We just finished lunch! Can you give me a minute?!' You’re never off, honestly,” he added.

In a recentinterview with PEOPLE, the father of six shared his shocked reaction to son Oscar suggesting they expand their family even further and have a seventh child.

“This morning, Oscar said, ‘Wouldn’t it be nice if Jesse and I had a little sister?’ And I spat my Cheerios out. So yeah, I had to get up from the table and walk away,” quipped Ramsay.

“I didn’t wait to see Tana’s reaction. I literally coughed my Cheerios out all over the table. So yeah, listen, who knows, right?” Ramsay added.
