The Great Celebrity Bake Off returned to TV on Sunday, March 16, 2025, with popular podcast duo Chris and Rosie Ramsey, along with siblings Scarlette and Stuart Douglas. Chris and Rosie, known for their humor and relatable chats on their hit podcast “Sh**ed. Married. Annoyed,” brought their lively energy to the well-loved baking show.
Their home is filled with creativity and warmth, reflecting the charm of their £1.5 million property. The couple has shared their renovation journey since moving in nearly four years ago. Built in 1876, the house has a rich history and features six bedrooms, high ceilings, and classic fireplaces.
The Great Celebrity Bake Off, shown on Channel 4, is usually a fun and friendly competition. However, this season took an unexpected turn with some surprising tension, especially in the episode with the Ramseys. Host Alison Hammond noticed the intense mood and commented on it.
It wasn’t necessarily nice banter. It was arguments. I’ve never seen this before. They were arguing with each other because they wanted to win. I was like, ‘Here we go. We’re reffing this, not judging it!
There were moments of playful sabotage, which Judge Paul Hollywood remarked upon too, humorously observing,
For Chris Ramsey, the competition was taken seriously.
We are all baking head-to-head. No helping out. No mercy! If one of us wins, we will mention it daily to the other for possibly a decade or two.
He said
Their competitive nature adds to the fun of watching them on the show. At home, Chris and Rosie have designed their space with a mix of modern and historic styles, decorating it for every season. Rosie recently posted on Instagram, showing off their stunning Christmas tree and beautifully arranged rooms.
Their living room now has deep navy walls and a fresh new look, blending perfectly with the home’s original details. This creates a warm and stylish space for their children, Robin (nine) and Rafe (four).
Rosie was excited about their new home when they first bought it, sharing that she had wanted to move for a long time.
Terrible timing, but our dream house came up, and we couldn’t resist. I’ve wanted to move for years, and we thought, if we don’t do it now, when will we?
This sentiment captures the couple’s adventurous spirit and commitment to family life.
The celebrity cooking show was filled with both baking and intense emotions as fans noticed the absence of beloved judge Prue Leith, who has been a key part of The Great British Bake Off. This season, Prue stepped away from the celebrity series to focus on the main competition.

Her replacement, Caroline Waldegrave, brings plenty of experience. She previously owned Leith’s School of Food & Wine and co-wrote cookbooks with Prue.
A spokesperson from Love Productions explained the change so fans would understand why Prue wasn’t judging the celebrity episodes. While some viewers were disappointed, many were also excited to see Caroline bring her knowledge and skills to the show.
Caroline is perfect! The kindest and most knowledgeable teacher, the bakers will love her.
Prue shared, giving her blessing.
The Great Celebrity Bake Off is all about raising money for Stand Up to Cancer, with this season running until April 13, 2025. The mix of competition and charity makes it even more exciting, keeping both contestants and viewers engaged each week.
Chris and Rosie’s appearance kicked off another great season, bringing fun and heartfelt moments. As the show continues, fans can look forward to many laughs and touching stories, along with glimpses of their lovely home.
With a perfect mix of playful banter, friendly rivalry, and family life—including debates over who’s the better baker—The Great Celebrity Bake Off remains a favorite, all set against the backdrop of their beautiful home.
