Gordon Ramsay Reveals Skin Cancer Diagnosis and Removal Surgery: ‘Please Don’t Forget to Wear Your Sunscreen’

Gordon Ramsay revealed that he was diagnosed with skin cancer and has since had it removed. The British celebrity chef and restaurateur took to social media to show his surgery scars – and promised they weren’t the elective kind.

“Grateful and so appreciative for the incredible team at The Skin Associates and their fast reactive work on removing this Basal Cell Carcinoma thank you!” Ramsay, who is best know for creating and hosting the cooking reality show “Hell’s Kitchen,” said in an Instagram post on Friday. “Please don’t forget your sunscreen this weekend.”

The post was coupled with images of his surgery removal site, which was made near his ear and jawline.
