The wedding of Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty and celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay's daughter, Holly Ramsay, was a star-studded affair at Bath Abbey today, but the celebrations were tinged with significant family drama. Leading the guest list were David and Victoria Beckham, who arrived at the historic venue despite navigating their own well-publicised familial tensions with son Brooklyn.
A Ceremony Overshadowed by Rift
The lead-up to the nuptials between the 30-year-old athlete and the 25-year-old bride has been coloured by an ongoing family rift. Peaty's mother, Caroline, confirmed earlier this week that she had been uninvited from the wedding and would not attempt to attend. Speaking to the Daily Mail, she stated, 'Me going would just cause even more of a storm and I don't want to ruin his wedding day. I wanted to be there quietly to watch him get married, but that can’t happen now.'
Star-Studded Arrivals and Emotional Moments
Despite the underlying tension, the ceremony proceeded with notable celebrity guests. Alongside the Beckhams, attendees included renowned chef Marcus Wareing and businesswoman Sara Davies. The bride, Holly Ramsay, was spotted arriving by taxi, where she was greeted by her father, Gordon Ramsay.
The celebrity chef shared a poignant message on Instagram ahead of walking his daughter down the aisle. He wrote, 'I’m truly so lucky being able to walk this beautiful bride down the aisle and gaining an incredible son in law Adam Peaty! I love you so much Holly Ramsay and couldn’t be a prouder Dad xxx.'
Fashion and Festive Nuances
Holly Ramsay chose a traditional yet elegant look for her wedding day, wearing a floor-length embroidered white gown complemented by a smooth shawl. The wedding took place on December 27, 2025, adding a festive note to the occasion, though the reported family feud has undoubtedly cast a shadow over the celebrations for some.
The presence of the Beckhams, themselves no strangers to public family scrutiny, added another layer of media interest to the high-profile event at the iconic Bath Abbey.
