Gordon Ramsay 'gatecrashed' couple's wedding – and then paid for it
The groom said they felt "like extras on a gameshow"
Gordon Ramsay accidentally ruined a couple's dream wedding while filming a segment for his new show 'Future Food Stars' at Lusty Glaze Beach in Newquay, Cornwall.
Charlie Willis (35) and Laura Willis (29) reportedly paid £1,300 for a private ceremony for six on the beach and Ramsay gatecrashed the wedding, ruining their pictures and their meal in the process.
Willis, a plumbing merchant from Kettering, Northants, said the whole thing "was a complete kitchen nightmare. We had both worked so hard to save for that day and we felt like extras on a gameshow". The couple received a formal apology in writing from Ramsay's executive producer, which read: "I am mortified that we affected your special day". Ramsay also paid back the couple’s £1,300.
It was probably not quite the wedding ceremony they were hoping for but at least they got a good pub story out of it.

Oops
I bet they were damn mad about it when it happened. But after the apology and the refund, and considering how much coverage this got, I bet they're kinda happy because it's a story
Right?!
