Newlyweds Adam Peaty and Holly Ramsay head off on their honeymoon after changing their name, leaving behind the pain felt by his family following Gordon Ramsay’s wedding speech

Newlyweds Adam Peaty and Holly Ramsay have wasted no time putting wedding chaos behind them, as they were spotted heading off on their honeymoon just days after their festive nuptials — and amid an intensifying family feud.

The Olympic swimmer, 31, married celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay’s daughter Holly, 25, in a star-studded ceremony at Bath Abbey on Saturday. But what should have been a fairytale celebration was overshadowed by Adam’s dramatic decision to ban most of his own family from attending.

The fallout reportedly stemmed from a bitter row last month, when Adam’s mother Caroline was not invited to Holly’s hen do — a snub that escalated into Adam uninviting both his parents, Caroline and Mark, along with his brothers James and Richard. Only his sister Beth attended the wedding, serving as maid of honour alongside Holly’s sisters Megan and Tilly.

Despite the storm swirling around them, the newlyweds appeared calm and united as they were photographed leaving Gordon Ramsay’s London home en route to the airport. Adam, who has since changed his surname on social media following the wedding, cut a low-key figure in pale grey trousers, a black jumper and a cream baseball cap, carrying a green backpack and his coat. Holly looked effortlessly chic in a long cream coat, jeans and black heels, flashing her wedding rings as she handed luggage to a waiting driver.

Sources say the couple are keen to focus on their future together, starting with a honeymoon designed to shut out the noise. Onlookers noted they appeared relaxed and happy, despite the furore that has surrounded their big day.

Behind the scenes, however, tensions remain raw. It has emerged that Adam’s aunt Louise sent him a message moments before he walked into Bath Abbey — a text he never saw because he had blocked family messages. During his reception speech at Kin House in Wiltshire, Adam reportedly acknowledged the pain caused by the family rift, paying tribute instead to his swim coach Mel Marshall, whom he described as “everything”, “grounding and inspiring”, and “like a mum” to him.

Gordon Ramsay’s own speech has since poured fuel on the fire. While he praised Holly’s beauty and told Adam he was a “lucky man”, he also said his wife Tana “will be a good mum to them both”, before adding to Holly, in what many saw as a pointed remark about Adam’s absent parents, “Shame you don’t have the same.”

That line has left Adam’s mother Caroline reportedly devastated. A source close to the Peaty family said she was “outraged and hurt” by Gordon’s “cruel” digs, adding that the comment made it sound as though she was a bad mother. Those close to Caroline insist she has always done her best for her children and found the public jab deeply painful.

As Adam and Holly fly off to begin married life under a new shared name, questions remain over whether this honeymoon marks a fresh start — or simply a pause in a family feud that shows no sign of cooling.
