Hunter prepared to follow in his father’s footsteps by interning at the Caesar’s restaurant group while in college. He was also offered to train under Gordon Ramsay in London, but his credits for the study abroad program lagged behind.
Still, Guy showed how proud he was of his son in his 2018 interview Delicious.
“I don’t call friends for favors. Hunter doesn’t play it. That’s one of the things I’m most proud of,” he said.
While the first The next Food Network star participant can count on his son, he said he wanted Hunter to find his own path.
Guy continued, “When that’s done, we’ll all know when it’s time for him to come back to the family program. It’s going to happen, I have no doubts. In fact, I’m looking forward to it. I almost want to cheat the system and bring him back early, but I know what’s best for him.”
