Gordon Ramsey dad-shamed over this picture

He’s known as the hard-talking chef who makes restaurant owners quake in their boots but Gordon Ramsay has come up against some criticism of his own this week.

The 52-year-old, who welcomed his fifth child with wife, Tana Ramsay in April, has faced backlash on Instagram, after posting a snap with his adorable two-month-old son, Oscar.

“Walk in the Park with my new best mate,” Gordon captioned the photo, showing him holding Oscar in a baby carrier.

While there’s no denying it’s an adorable snap, fans warned the celebrity chef about the way Oscar was sitting in the sling.

“That support is not ergonomic and the child's forehead position is not recommended. I advise you to change support for a more pleasant babywearing experience for both,” one commenter said.

“That harness is way to low and he should be facing towards you not away from you,” another person said.

Another commenter recommended Gordon look up the TICKS rules for safe babywearing, which details how the baby can be kept safe in carriers and slings.

According to TICKS, the carrier should be tight enough to hug the baby close to you, as any slack fabric will allow the baby to slump down and could hamper their breathing.

The person wearing the carrier should also be able to see the baby’s face by glancing gown and have the baby’s head close enough that you’re able to kiss the top of their head.

The baby’s chin should never be forced onto their chest and their back should be supported by being close to the wearer.

Gordon announced the arrival of baby Oscar back in April with a cute Instagram post.

"After 3 baftas and one Emmy... finally we have won an Oscar," Gordon wrote.

"Please welcome Oscar James Ramsay, who touched down at 12:58 today for some lunch ! Xxx."

Gordon and Tana are already parents to 20-year-old Megan, 19-year-old twins Holly and Jack, and 17-year-old Matilda.
