Ramsay tweeted the surprise decision, saying it was time to end the show.
"I'm breaking my own news today! I've decided it's time to bring Kitchen Nightmares to a close. Been 10 great years," he tweeted.
"As filming comes to a close on the latest series of Kitchen Nightmares I've decided to stop making the show... I've had a phenomenal 10 years making 123 episodes, 12 seasons, shot across 2 continents, watched by tens of millions of people and sold to over 150 countries. It's been a blast but it's time to call it a day," he further said.
