Gordon Ramsay, the award winning British chef, restaurant owner and star of TV shows such as  "Hells Kitchen," "Kitchen Nightmares," and "MasterChef"  is opening up about his long standing feud with his father-in-law. Ramsay talked with Men's Journal revealing they went from best friend's to bitter enemies after Ramsay discovered Christopher Hutcheson was supporting a double life.

Hutcheson, the father of Ramsay's wife Tana, was business partners with Ramsay in a number of ventures. They used to be partners in opening up several restaurants. After Ramsay got suspicious of Hutcheson, he hired a private detective and the lawsuits began. Their business partnership ended. However, that may not have been the worst of the feud. It quickly became personal.

According to Men's Journal, Ramsay also found out through the private detective that Hutcheson was leading a double life. He had a second family that he was supporting. So Ramsay felt he had no choice but to fire his father-in-law, which is clearly not an easy thing to do. The feud would go even further when Ramsay accused his father-in-law of also hacking into his private emails.

The popular TV chef started Gordon Ramsay Holdings with Hutcheson soon after marrying his wife Tana in 1996. Ramsay explained to Men's Journal in the interview, "And then to cast Tana and the grandchildren off like he did. I mean, what would it take for me to do that to my daughter? What kind of man would I be? What kind of evil f**k would you be, to shit on your family to that extent and bring in this new family that had been hidden for 20 years? What kind of man would I be?"

The feud appears to be over for now. The Telegraph reported that the two sides reach a financial settlement. However, Ramsay is no stranger to feuds. The hot headed chef is known for trading barbs with fellow chef's such as Bobby Flay and Cat Cora. He didn't hold back in the Men's Journal interview when expressing his thoughts on Flay, Cora, and Frank Bruni.

When asked about Bruni's infamous two star review of Gordon Ramsay at the London, Ramsay said, "Frank Bruni f**ked me sideways, but the fascinating thing about that, I knew he had the hots for my French maître d'. But I mean, what's Frank Bruni doing now? Tweeting about the government? I piss myself. I wish him the very best."
