But Gordon is late with his tax return and could face court

GORDON Ramsay has failed to file accounts for his multi-million-pound restaurant empire - for the second year running.

The chef has already incurred a fine of £1,500 for being five months late and could face another embarrassing court case if he fails to organise his paperwork.

Last year Companies House started steps to prosecute Gordon Ramsay Holdings because the accounts for 2006 were 16 months late but the case fell by the wayside due to a technicality.

Gordon Ramsay Holdings is run by the chef's father-in-law Chris Hutcheson, who is the company's chief executive and holds a 31 per cent stake. Ramsay owns the rest and is worth a reputed £67 million. One of his restaurants, Foxtrot Oscar in Chelsea, is open for lunch only on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays due to a lack of bookings.
