Chef Gordon Ramsay lost his restaurant rent case. According to a report, the "Kitchen Nightmares" star has been ordered to pay a £10.8 million lease for "York And Albany".

According to an earlier report from Daily Mail, the chef turned reality star is claiming that his father-in-law, Christopher Hutcheson, used a ghost machine to forge his signature in order to secure a rental agreement for a new establishment.

As a result of allegedly having his signature copied, the culinary master was held accountable for a £640,000-a-year rental agreement for a lease on York & Albany pub near Regent's Park. The contract for the said London restaurant will run for 25 years.

BBC News revealed earlier this week that, unfortunately for Chef Gordon Ramsay, the restaurant rent was officially decided by High Court's Justice Morgan as his responsibility.

The decision regarding Chef Gordon Ramsay's restaurant case came after the judge disagreed that the TV star was not aware of how the ghost machine was used in several important documents that needed his signature.

"Accordingly, I find that Mr Ramsay knew, long before the entry into the agreement for lease and the lease of the premises, that the machine was routinely used to place his signature on legal documents," the judge said.

"I do not accept his evidence to the contrary."

The 25 year lease for Chef Gordon Ramsay's restaurant "York And Albany" was signed in 2007

"I find that when Mr Hutcheson committed Mr Ramsay to the guarantee in the lease of the premises, Mr Hutcheson was acting within the wide general authority conferred on him by Mr Ramsay at all times until Mr Hutcheson's dismissal in October 2010," the High Court official explained.

Aside from the signature-forging issue, a report from Mirror UK detailed how Chef Gordon Ramsay is unhappy about how Christopher Hutcheson managed his restaurant business.

The outspoken chef pointed out that working for his father-in-law made him feel like "a performing monkey".
