Adam Peaty’s dad Mark snubbed his son’s stag party while his future father-in-law Gordon Ramsay took centre stage as the full list of family boycotting the Olympian’s wedding is revealed

Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty had a falling out with his father, Mark, which prevented him from attending Peaty’s bachelor party. Sources say this dispute also led Peaty to disinvite his mother, Caroline, from his wedding, according to the Daily Mail.

The Olympic swimmer is facing a family rift, with many relatives, including his aunt Louise Williams, her husband, and his cousin Luke Peaty, refusing to attend his wedding to Holly Ramsay due to a disagreement.

Adam, age 30, is getting married to his 25-year-old influencer fiancée on December 27th at Bath Abbey. David and Victoria Beckham are among those expected to attend the wedding.

To make matters even more chaotic, it’s been revealed that the groom’s father didn’t attend his bachelor party. Instead, his future father-in-law, Gordon, was the main focus of the celebration.

The situation has become very serious, with sources reporting threats of violence against Holly and Adam. Adam was even reportedly met by armed police after receiving threats while celebrating his upcoming wedding.

The situation arose because Mrs. Peaty, from Uttoxeter in Staffordshire, wasn’t included in Holly’s pre-wedding party on Friday, which was held at the popular Soho Farmhouse in the Cotswolds.

It’s been crazy since all this came out. Honestly, it feels like a full-on war of words! Holly’s dad, Gordon, is a PR pro, and his team immediately started firing back at anyone saying anything negative. It’s just been one accusation after another from both sides, a total whirlwind.

The Peaty family is speaking out on social media, claiming they weren’t invited to the wedding because the Ramsays view them as ‘not good enough’ due to their financial situation and lifestyle. They feel they don’t fit in with the Ramsays’ more affluent image.

According to someone familiar with the Ramsays, the conflict stems from significant issues within the Peaty family itself.

According to a source, Holly and Adam have received serious threats of violence, and the police are now investigating.

It was also revealed on Thursday that Adam’s brother, James, was arrested for allegedly threatening him during his bachelor party.

James Peaty, age 34, was held for questioning by police for two days. He was then released on bail with certain conditions after being accused of verbally threatening Adam, who was celebrating his bachelor party in Budapest, Hungary.

On November 11, 2025, Staffordshire Police arrested a 34-year-old man from the Uttoxeter area on suspicion of harassment, according to a statement to the Daily Mail.

‘The man was released on conditional bail while our enquiries continue.’

Police with weapons reportedly met the Olympic swimmer when he arrived at the airport after receiving threats while celebrating his upcoming wedding with friends.

After the plane landed at Manchester Airport on Sunday night, five police officers in uniform reportedly met him and escorted him through immigration and baggage claim.

Security cameras were watched by officials who noticed something unusual, and Adam was led out of the building and into a car that was waiting for him.

As a lifestyle expert, I’m hearing reports about a recent situation involving Adam. Apparently, he was worried about potentially being attacked, so he immediately reached out to his fiancée, Holly. She, understandably concerned, contacted the police. It sounds like everyone was just trying to ensure his safety and well-being.

According to a source, the problems aren’t related to bachelorette parties or wedding invites – they’re much more serious and widespread.

The situation got worse over the weekend when someone started sending increasingly abusive and threatening texts. Adam was trying to have fun at his bachelor party, but he was really disturbed by the messages.

Someone threatened to confront him when he arrived by plane. He informed Holly, who spoke with her family before contacting the police.

A friend shared that Holly’s parents, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay and his wife Tana, have been completely supportive of their relationship.

People with knowledge of the situation have told Katie Hind of the Daily Mail that the claims made by Gordon Ramsay’s team haven’t been well-received.

A source told Mail+ that it doesn’t look good for Gordon Ramsay’s team to be publicly accusing the Peaty family, who are just a typical, everyday family. You can read the complete story here.

As a lifestyle expert, I’m thrilled to share details of Adam and Holly’s beautiful wedding! They’re starting with a truly stunning ceremony at the historic Bath Abbey, and then everyone – including a fantastic guest list – will be continuing the celebrations at the gorgeous Kin House, a really lovely country estate. It promises to be a day to remember!

After the ceremony, guests will enjoy a reception at a beautiful country hotel, with many relatives and friends planning to stay for the entire holiday weekend.

After Adam prohibited his mother, Caroline, from attending the celebrity party and warned he would prevent her from seeing her five-year-old grandson, George, other invited family members have stated they will now boycott the event.

Luke, his cousin, told the Daily Mail he won’t be attending the wedding. He said he doesn’t know the details of what caused the problem and doesn’t want to take sides.

According to a family insider, Adam’s maternal aunt Louise and her husband won’t be attending the wedding.

His brother James, James’s wife Charlotte, and their half-brother Rich are also expected to skip the event to stand with their mother.

Adam’s sister Bethany was a guest and may be his only family member present at his wedding.

After Holly didn’t acknowledge her hen party, Mrs. Williams took to Instagram to accuse her of being hurtful and creating division with her sister.

Mrs Peaty also posted in her social media how upset she had been.

According to a family insider, it’s now possible that no one will attend, except for Adam’s sister, instead of the whole family going as originally planned.

It’s truly disappointing things have turned out this way. This should have been a joyful time for both families to come together, celebrate, and build relationships.

I was so excited to be invited to the Ramsay’s for drinks on Boxing Day! It was a lovely get-together before we all headed to the abbey for the main event.

Everyone was scheduled to stay at a luxurious hotel for the reception, but it was very expensive.

The cost was too high for some family members who are already facing financial hardship on universal credit, and Adam didn’t offer any assistance with lodging or travel.

Despite being a very wealthy world champion swimmer, he reportedly doesn’t spend much money spoiling his family.

Holly was spotted on Thursday with a phone case that said ‘Bride’ – her first public appearance since details of a disagreement with her fiancé’s family became known.

Adding to his difficulties, Adam has learned that many family members won’t be at the wedding. This follows accusations from his family that his team made unkind comments about his mother, Caroline, regarding her appearance.

They also criticized him for seemingly going against his Christian faith by excluding his family from the wedding festivities. Furthermore, they claimed Adam had sent his mother different clothing suggestions because they disliked her initial outfit selections.

Adam’s family began publicly criticizing after learning why they were uninvited to the wedding.

According to a source who attended the party and spoke with the Daily Mail’s Katie Hind, the photo clearly shows a particular kind of person was present.

Everyone seems so similar, and you start to think Caroline doesn’t quite fit in. She’s just a regular person, not someone famous. When you look at Holly’s Instagram, everything is carefully styled, overly glamorous, and meant to impress—but that’s not Caroline at all.

You can find the full story about why Holly and Adam didn’t allow Adam’s mother to attend their wedding or pre-wedding celebrations in Katie Hind’s exclusive article on Mail+.

After the comments came to light, Adam’s family responded on social media, accusing the commenter of body shaming.

Honestly, I’m absolutely fuming on behalf of Adam’s auntie, Louise Williams! She’s completely right to call out Adam and Holly – how dare they try to spin this and say Caroline wasn’t invited because of how my sister looks? It’s just… unbelievable! The audacity of them to even suggest that! Auntie Louise is spot on, and I’m with her all the way!

Seriously? Criticizing someone’s appearance like that is unacceptable, especially a 60-year-old woman! It’s completely inappropriate and hurtful.

You know, I’ve been following this situation, and it’s really struck me how faith and actions don’t always align. It’s easy to say you’re a Christian, but are you truly living those values? I keep thinking about core principles like respecting your parents and offering forgiveness – where are those qualities in this instance? It’s a reminder that belief is only part of the equation; how we treat others is what truly matters.

According to Louise McCallum, a source familiar with the events, the individual was attempting to change his mother’s clothes because she was wearing something they didn’t like. McCallum suggested he seemed to have lost touch with his upbringing and should perhaps revisit the religious texts he often quotes.

The family was criticized for sharing their private conflicts publicly. One person commented that their behavior was inappropriate and explained it as the reason they weren’t invited to the wedding.

Louise Williams wrote: ‘Decorum? What century are we in?’ 

The previous day, Adam’s Aunt Louise got involved in the family conflict, expressing serious concern about her sister. She stated that Holly and Adam had deeply upset her, saying, ‘She’s really not doing well at all. They’ve broken her heart.’

She said Adam feels embarrassed by his brothers, and then strangely posted photos of Holly’s bachelorette party on her Threads profile.

Adam’s family says he’s become self-centered and that wealth has changed him, causing him to lose touch with his roots.

Someone from the family told The Sun that they received a ‘save the date’ notice for a series of events at fancy country houses. They said they can’t afford to go because they’re receiving Universal Credit.

‘Adam has been changed by money, fame and fortune. He seems to have forgotten where he came from.

‘We think he has treated Caroline appallingly. You can hear it in her voice. She’s heartbroken.’

According to another source, Adam’s family initially supported his engagement to Holly, but they feel he’s become increasingly distant from them over the last year.

Some family members feel Adam is closer to Holly and her family, and that he’s become distant from his own.

‘Caroline is devoted to her grandson George and will move heaven and earth to care for him.

With increasing conflict, disagreements have occurred, and Caroline consistently tries to avoid trouble because she values her relationship with her grandson.

Caroline’s family is deeply upset with Adam, with her sister stating he’s made incredibly hurtful and disrespectful comments to his own mother.

Following reports that the swimming champion became distracted by his fiancée’s wealth and celebrity – and now regrets his family’s background – this development has occurred.

Someone close to his mother, Caroline, says she’s deeply hurt and believes her son feels she doesn’t fit in with the Ramsay family’s social circle.

According to a source who spoke with the Daily Mail, Adam’s personality has shifted significantly since he started dating Holly. Because Holly comes from a world of celebrities, and Adam’s family doesn’t share that background, his ego has grown. They say he’s no longer the down-to-earth, friendly person everyone used to know.

Adam’s behavior has really changed, and it’s hurting his mother. He’s been unkind to her and is now distancing himself, which is causing her a lot of worry and pain.

‘We think Holly has triggered all this, and her parents – the power of the rich and famous.’

The future Olympic champion had a very close relationship with his mother, who tirelessly supported his swimming career. She would wake up at 4 a.m. to drive him to competitions throughout the UK, helping him develop into the athlete who would eventually win three gold medals.

However, things reportedly changed for him after he began dating, and later became engaged to, Holly, a well-known media personality. Meeting her father, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, and being introduced to their famous friends like the Beckhams, seemed to have a noticeable effect on him.

Oh, it’s just obvious, isn’t it? Someone told me Caroline just doesn’t get his world. She’s not polished enough, doesn’t have that glamorous look everyone expects, and honestly? She doesn’t even try to fit in with his family’s style. It’s like she’s from a completely different planet! They’re all about appearances, and she just… isn’t it.

This popular wedding venue can host up to 200 guests and has 12 bedrooms that can sleep up to 24 people.

A full weekend wedding starts at £32,750, and we create custom menus for each couple. For Adam’s family, who live in the East Midlands, round-trip train tickets to Bath would likely cost around £100.

With only twelve rooms available, it’s doubtful his entire immediate family could be accommodated if they were to visit the country house.

Adam’s aunt claims Holly Ramsay upset her mother-in-law, Caroline, by not including her in the pre-wedding celebrations for her hen do on Monday.

Gordon Ramsay’s daughter held pre-wedding festivities at the popular Soho Farmhouse, inviting guests like her mother, Tana Ramsay, Victoria Beckham, and Adam’s sister, Bethany. However, reports suggest Caroline is deeply upset after not receiving an invitation.

Adam’s family is furious after Caroline publicly shared her sadness online. Her sister, Louise Williams (known as @Loobylou on Instagram), and their aunt Jan have also joined the online discussion, calling the situation a mess.

Louise, Adam’s aunt, expressed deep concern for her sister, saying she was heartbroken by her relationship with Adam. She claimed Adam felt embarrassed by his brothers and surprisingly posted photos from Holly’s hen party on her social media account.

Holly didn’t invite Caroline to her party, and Caroline felt left out. Caroline had been a key supporter of Adam, helping him achieve Olympic success. Meanwhile, she was at home in Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, caring for her five-year-old grandson, George – Adam’s son from his previous relationship with Eirianedd Munro.

On Monday, Caroline posted a puzzling image to Instagram with a message about love and protection. It read: ‘If you truly love someone, you shield them from hurt, rather than being the one who causes it.’

She captioned the post with: ‘The ones I love are the people who hurt me the most.’

The post quickly received a lot of attention from Adam Peaty’s family, with his aunt, Louise, publicly sharing her thoughts on why he wasn’t included in a recent bachelorette party. Family members also commented on the mental health struggles of Adam’s brothers.

She explained that the woman was excluded because she wouldn’t apologize for canceling the trip to Bath. This was due to a train cancellation, and because she supported her son and his brothers, who have ADHD and mental health issues – sons that Adam felt were a source of embarrassment.

It seems acceptable that Adam profited from writing about his brothers’ difficulties. I’m curious – if you’re a mother, would you prioritize maintaining a relationship with a celebrity over supporting two sons who needed you?

Okay, so she mentioned Bath, and I nearly lost it! It all makes sense now – his parents are going to the wedding, the whole family is invited, and Caroline actually bought a dress! A dress! I’m telling you, it’s happening, it’s really happening! I’ve been tracking everything, and this is huge. Bath… a dress… it’s a sign!

However, the source says the celebrity and his future wife weren’t happy with the outfit, so they offered to purchase a new one for her. The couple had already been given train tickets and a hotel room to go shopping in Bath, and they decided to use them.

You won’t believe this, but my planned trip fell through. Unfortunately, there were some really serious incidents – several stabbings on a train near Huntingdon a couple of weeks ago – and that caused major disruptions to travel, with lots of delays and cancellations heading south. It just wasn’t safe or practical to go, so I had to postpone.

Caroline and Mark weren’t able to go on the trip. Adam was furious they’d missed it, complaining that his money was wasted and he wouldn’t receive a refund instead of trying to reschedule.

It’s truly sad to see what’s happening with him – despite being very wealthy, he seems unhappy. You never know what private struggles people face, and it’s clear he’s distanced himself from his family. It’s heartbreaking to watch this family, once so close and normal, fall apart.

Louise continued her outburst, quickly moving on to defend her sister, claiming she was incredibly kind and generous.

She continued, explaining that despite everything, she always supports all of her children, and Adam is upset by this. It’s surprising to hear this from him and Holly, considering they present themselves as mental health advocates.

No loving mother would ever abandon her own child, and Caroline is certainly one of those mothers – she’s incredibly kind and generous.

Caroline is truly one of the kindest people I know – she always steps in to help whenever she sees someone in need. I often tell her she’s too kind, because she’s easily hurt. Like all sisters, we have our disagreements and sometimes go through periods of not speaking, but we love each other deeply. I’m very protective of her, and always will be.

She also wrote that Holly didn’t invite her to the bachelorette party, but all the other mothers were included, and now she’s being left out of the wedding as well.

Caroline and Mark gave up so much for Adam, and this is the thanks they get. Whenever I try to support her online, I’m threatened with consequences! I simply stated a clear truth, and they reacted badly.

Caroline had to step in when one of her followers wrote a message urging her to apologize to her son. The follower claimed Caroline’s problem was her unwillingness to let her son live his own life, pointing out he was a grown adult and she needed to mature herself.

She responded angrily, saying he knew nothing about her or her family and that his comment was unwelcome. She also dismissed his suggestion that she didn’t want her son to grow up, stating she’s happy when her children are happy, just like any mother.

I was overjoyed when my son told me he’d met the person he wants to spend the rest of his life with. I hope this explains everything.

Even though Bethany was invited to the bachelorette party, she supported her family by joining her Aunt Janet in reacting to a comment that expressed hope the Beckhams would offer support, considering their own experiences.

You’re doing amazing! It takes a special mum to wake up at 4am for swim practice. Adam is incredibly proud of you.

The day before, Louise angrily confronted Holly for upsetting her future mother-in-law, reminding Holly that she had been incredibly welcoming and that the incident deeply hurt her sister, potentially for a long time.

I was happy to hear you enjoyed your hen do, Holly. Every bride deserves that! But I also need to say that I was hurt by how you treated someone I care about deeply, and I think your actions were divisive and unkind.

She welcomed you into her life and home, but you chose not to include her – your future mother-in-law – in your bachelorette party. Interestingly, Adam did invite your dad, his future father-in-law, to his bachelor party.

You invited so many people – your mom (which was great!), her assistant, your sisters, and friends, even my niece! But you didn’t invite my sister, or your future mother-in-law.

Honestly, I’ve been following this situation and have seen some messages between her and Adam – and I’m really disappointed in both of you. I always thought better of Adam, and I certainly expected more from you. The pain you’ve caused my sister is deep, and I worry it will take a very long time for her to recover, if she ever fully does.

The online post reportedly caused significant distress to Holly and her boyfriend, Adam, a world champion swimmer. They’ve been together for over two years.

Someone close to the Peaty family shared that the swimmer deeply upset his mother by contacting her after a social media post from her sister. He told her she wasn’t welcome at the wedding and would no longer be allowed to see his son, George, or any future grandchildren.

In a message obtained by the Daily Mail, Adam told his mother he planned to cut ties with his family, even though they had always supported his career.

Caroline sparked controversy by sharing a heartfelt message on Instagram. She posted, ‘Sometimes you cry because words can’t describe how much pain you’re feeling.’

Caroline’s post received many supportive and worried comments from friends, with one person writing, ‘Don’t let them get to you, Caroline.’
