The Ramsay and Beckham families have long been friends. Now, according to UK publication The People, Tana Ramsay has turned to Victoria Beckham during the trying times of her husband Gordon Ramsay‘s cheating scandal.
Tana and Gordon’s 12-year marriage has been rocked by accusations that the TV chef had a seven-year affair with Sarah Symonds — author of a self-help book for mistresses.
Posh has experienced similar woes in the past, with David Beckham having been accused of cheating with Rebecca Loos in 2004.
“Tana has always respected the way Victoria handled the Rebecca Loos scandal, holding her head up high and refusing to give up on her marriage,” the source says. “She just never expected to be in the same position.”
It’s said that Posh has offered Tana continuing support: “I’m here for you day or night, whenever you need to talk.”
It’s reported that Tana has taken Posh up on the offer, with lengthy phone conversations between the friends throughout 42-year-old Gordon’s scandal. Aside from being a close friend of Tana’s, says The People‘s source, “when it comes to handling the media storm Victoria is an expert.”
According to The People, Victoria, 34, advised Tana, 33, “to make sure she looks her best when she goes out, let the photographers get their pictures and not look as if she’s running away or trying to hide.”
It seems that the phone lines will be running hot between the friends for a while yet.
“Victoria also understands that no matter how strong and smiley you appear in public, behind closed doors it’s a different matter. You can’t handle humiliation like that without a lot of tears and anger and soul-searching.”
