Over the last 40+ years, Gordon Ramsay has worked his way up from a humble, trainee chef - working under culinary moguls like Marco Pierre White and Albert Roux - to a prolific cooking connoisseur and one of the world's most renowned television stars.

With a multitude of self-owned restaurants scattered across the globe, and countless must-see TV series under his belt, this now 57-year-old father-of-six is also one of the highest earning celebrities of the 21st century.

His on-screen sensation Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares saw him changing the lives of promising yet hopeless entrepreneurs, whilst his f-bomb heavy hit Hell's Kitchen saw talented Head Chefs battling it out to be given the lead role at one of his popular restaurants.

The latter has continued for 13 years after first kicking off in 2005, and has been such an on-screen success that Ramsay himself opened a legitimate fine-dining restaurant in Las Vegas.

This week, however, one social media star and TikTok expert has revealed that despite this popular Nevada eatery remaining in the British star's name, Ramsay rarely visits the restaurant more than once a year.

What might come as a bigger surprise, however, is that the account The Vegaspaulyc Show - which goes by the username @casinocompwallet on the video-sharing app - told viewers that the celebrity chef is still paid 6% of all revenue that the restaurant makes.

This equates to just over $1million per year based on $17million sales.

Filming the colossal restaurant, @casinocompwallet told viewers: "This is Hell's Kitchen, Las Vegas, which is controlled by Gordon Ramsay.

"And he has a deal to manage this Hell's Kitchen for 10 years, and the reason we know all the details of the deal, is that in 2016-2017, Caesar's Palace - which is right behind us, over here - was bankrupt.

"And when they went bankrupt, they had to get approval from the judge in order to get a new deal with Gordon Ramsay in order to save themselves some money."

The TikTok user went on to explain: "So, the deal that they made - and is in the court documents - is Ramsay is required to appear once a year in Las Vegas and be at the resort for 24 hours.

"He must let Caesar's Palace photograph him. It also stipulates that he can fly First Class or take a private jet and get three deluxe rooms during his stay.

"It doesn't include his incidentals, but he gets a 30 per cent discount if he gets room service."

Not bad, all told!
