Holly Ramsay clutched a ‘Bride’ phone case as she broke cover on Thursday morning for the first time since her feud with fiancé Adam Peaty’s family came to light.
The daughter of Gordon Ramsay stepped out in south-west London while clutching a £2,880 Louis Vuitton holdall shortly after the couple gave an ill-timed insight into their wedding planning, in the wake of disinviting his relatives.
The couple are set to exchange vows in a lavish ceremony at Bath’s historic Abbey Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul next month. But the forthcoming ceremony has been eclipsed by a bitter fallout between Adam and his immediate family.
Prior to the outing, the Olympian, 30, and his bride-to-be appeared in a series of trailers for World Aquatic’s YouTube documentary series following the journey to the 2025 Swimming World Cup, with backstage snippets of the team and Holly.
During a snippet of the action, the cameras turn to the coach towing the swimmers, on which Adam, 30, reveals the couple are wedding planning on the road – in scenes shot before the explosive feud erupted between the sportsman and his family.
During her low-key outing, Holly kept things comfortable in black leggings and a faux fur jacket yet added some star power with her pricey luggage.
Her excitement for her upcoming nuptials were clear in her choice of accessory, as she brandished the phone case adorned with her imminent status.
Earlier this month, it was revealed that Adam’s mother Caroline was left heartbroken when she was not invited to Holly’s hen do, where she was joined by her mum Tana, Adam’s sister Bethany and Victoria Beckham at Soho Farmhouse.
Adam’s family have since been disinvited from the nuptials, and while the reasons have not been confirmed, in the YouTube series Holly reveals: ‘He’s very good at agreeing with my decisions which is the best way.’
Holly speaks proudly of life on the road with the sportsman, as she announces herself as: ‘I’m Holly Ramsay and I’m Adam’s fiancé. Gordon Ramsay’s daughter but I don’t cook. I prefer to eat. And I swim only in the bath.’
The couple then gave a glimpse into their planning, with Adam turning to the camera while looking at a garden furniture website and saying: ‘Doing the wedding list – the registry’, before Holly shed light on life on the road.
She said: ‘Preparing for the wedding amongst everything else he does [training for the World Cup] is stressful but we make it work. He’s very good at agreeing with my decisions which is the best way!’
Her confession comes at a poignant time in due to the news of the increasingly dramatic series of events surrounding the big day.
As the trailer continues, Holly is then in charge of the camera, as she films Adam and asks him to wave before turning the camera to herself and saying: ‘We are now on our way to the pool’, as she showed her support for her fiancé.
Adam then sweetly discussed being joined by his fiancée on the road, saying: ‘If I’m racing or in meets, she’ll be there in the audience. I’ll be in a different hotel room…
‘It’s definitely a new dynamic but I said to myself when we started that I wanted her there because it gives me balance but also not time away from home for three weeks. As someone who’s going through their fourth Olympics, you need balance.’
The couple then shared a tender kiss and said I love you.
While Adam failed to mention his own family in the clip, Holly shed light on the Ramsay clan, comprising dad Gordon, mum Tana and her siblings, Megan, 27, her twin brother Jack, 25, Matilda, 23, Oscar, six, and Jesse, two.
She said: ‘I have five siblings, so the house is constantly chaotic – which is a bit like being on tour. Theres definitely a few quirks to being with a swimmer…
‘Always have to have snacks on hand, if I don’t have snacks then he always gets very hangry so if we’re going out, even on the way to dinner, I need to bring snacks with me.’
She then reflected on Adam’s temperament, saying: ‘There’s definitely times when he just needs his own space, I mean three weeks on tour in a hotel room can definitely feel very small.’
The release of the video comes as the couple have been accused of ‘body shaming’ his mother by his family, after it was claimed she wasn’t invited to their wedding due to her appearance and not having the correct ‘look’.
The Olympic swimming champ and his fiancée will marry in a ceremony at Bath Abbey at Christmas time, but as it stands only one member of his family is set to attend on the day as a feud between the two families rumbles on.
In response to suggestions that Adam’s mother Caroline doesn’t ‘fit in’ with the Ramsays, the Peatys have accused them of ‘body shaming a 60-year-old woman’.
They also insisted he isn’t following his Christian beliefs by shunning his family from their wedding celebrations and accused Adam of sending his mother outfit options because they ‘didn’t approve of her choices’.
However, a source close to the Ramsays points to ‘wider problems’ in the Peaty family which they say is at the heart the fallout – and that they are serious.
The insider explains that there have been ‘horrible’ threats of violence against Holly and Adam and that police are involved.
On Wednesday it was revealed how ‘shaken’ Adam was met by armed police as he arrived back to the UK following sinister threats while on his stag do in Budapest.
The tirade of comments from Adam’s side of the family come after a source close to the situation explained why they were no longer invited to the nuptials.
Speaking to the Daily Mail’s Katie Hind, they said: ‘You only have to look at the picture to see that there is a certain “type”, says one person familiar with the party.
‘They all look the same and you wonder if Caroline might have stuck out a bit. She’s a normal woman, not a celebrity. You look at Holly’s Instagram and it’s all so planned, so super-glam and very, very showy. That’s not Caroline.’
