The celebrity chef has splashed out on a sprawling 16th century mansion in Essex, which features a tennis court, swimming pool and stables, and fans of reality TV show 'The Only Way Is Essex' are sure to recognise the pad from the show's 2012 finale.

The massive country home featured in the show, with former stars including Lauren Goodger and Joey Essex, enjoying the property and its amenities, according to The Sun.

Jamie, 43, his wife Jools, 44, and their five children - Poppy, 16, Daisy, 15, Petal, nine, Buddy, eight, and River, two - are set to move in to the property next month.

Meanwhile, Jamie recently revealed that he could have a sixth child in the near future because Jules wants to add to their brood.

He said: "I've tried to shut the shop a few times and I've failed. I just don't know any more. My intention would be to not have another one, but she might have different ideas and my capacity for self-restraint clearly isn't great, I don't have a good track record. We should phone a bookie. What are the odds? Will they/won't they?"

If the 'Naked Chef' star does have another child, he'll be sure to be an "embarrassing" dad to them, as he claims he doesn't even need to do anything for his children to be embarrassed by him.

He added: "Buddy and Petal think I'm cool, but to everyone else I am embarrassing. You don't even have to do anything to be embarrassing, you just need to have a pulse. I took a couple of the older ones to Topshop the other day and one of them was getting on my nerves, so I broke out into dance. She walked off and I followed her doing spins and moonwalks. It was very colourful ... the more embarrassed they get, the more you do it."
