It comes after earlier this week Gordon’s daughter Holly revealed she spent three months in a mental health hospital after suffering PTSD from sexual assaults.

Oh dear: They then come in cheering and screaming while holding congratulations signs as they think that she has made it through to the next round
She left Ravensbourne University after one year and was admitted to the Nightingale Hospital in Marylebone, London‘s only private mental health hospital.
Holly gave the heartbreaking account, as she said: ‘I went to university, studied fashion design, and I loved it. But by the second half of the first year I was being affected by my PTSD and I had no idea that this was happening.
‘I was going out a lot, missing class because I’d been out. I wasn’t enjoying myself. I was struggling a lot. The PTSD was a result of two sexual assaults when I was 18…
‘I didn’t tell anyone about it until a year afterwards. I just buried it in a box in the back of my mind. [In hospital] is was where I was diagnosed with PTSD, anxiety and depression.
Shock: However a smiling Gordon then tells the contestant that she actually hasn’t made it to the next stage of the cooking competition and simply says: ‘It’s a no’
‘Since then, I have been in therapy up to three times a week. I now have these diagnoses that I carry around with me. It’s confusing and I’m trying to take control of my narrative and use that to make something good.’
Taking to Instagram upon the release of the podcast, Holly penned: ‘Wow. I hope by listening, we can continue to break the stigma surrounding our mental health…
‘Asking for help is not only the bravest thing you can do, but it is also your first step to reaching a happier & healthier you’.

She then gave a nod to her father Gordon, 54, her mother Tana, 46, her twin, Jack, sisters Megan, 23, and Matilda, 19, and baby brother Oscar, two.
Holly said: ‘It’s brought me closer to them in many ways.’
She previously said: ‘I’ve lost friends. It’s definitely a journey. But I hope that by speaking out I can help other people…
‘I hope we can continue to break the stigma surrounding our mental health. Asking for help is not only the bravest thing you can do, but it is also your first step to reaching a happier & healthier you.’
