Gordon Ramsay shares important message after potentially fatal accident
Gordon Ramsay is grateful to be alive and attributes his survival to the helmet, which he claims saved his life, in addition to the physicians, nurses, and other staff at the hospital in Connecticut.
During the Father’s Day weekend, the well-known chef used social media to tell his followers a terrifying tale. Even a week following the incident, Ramsay was still uneasy.
“I had a pretty bad bike accident in Connecticut this week,” he added. “I’m okay, I didn’t break any bones or have any serious injuries, but I do look like a purple potato with all the bruises.”
An enthusiastic cyclist, Ramsay clarified that wearing a helmet is vital no matter how “short the journey is” or that helmets are expensive because they are “crucial.”
“I’m fortunate to be in this position. I’m hurting. “I’m slowly making my way through this tough week,” Ramsay remarked, lifting his shirt to display a large bruise.
The Hell’s Kitchen star also uploaded pictures of his accident both before and after.
Gordon Ramsay’s recovery makes me very happy. The fact that you can see his bruise and the damage his helmet caused serves as a great reminder of how important it is to always wear a helmet!
