How can Adam Peaty be so cruel to a loving mum who made him a champion?

by

It’s very sad for Adam Peaty‘s mother, Caroline, that she won’t be able to attend his wedding to Holly Ramsay, Gordon Ramsay’s daughter.

It is a decision the soft lad will regret for the rest of his life.

This is the mother of a three-time Olympic gold medalist. For years, she woke up at 4 a.m. daily to drive her son to swimming practice.

Peaty, age 30, recently acknowledged the incredible support of his own parents, stating, ‘Parents are the real heroes in sports. I understand firsthand how challenging it is to succeed when you come from a working-class family.’

People close to millionaire chef Gordon Ramsay and his wife Tana say there’s been tension between the two families ever since their daughter Holly, 25, started dating Adam. A source within the Ramsay family reportedly described Adam’s parents, who come from a working-class background – his mother used to manage a nursery and his father works in a supermarket – as ‘not quite refined’.

It’s really snobbish and says a lot that Caroline wasn’t included in Holly’s bachelorette party at the exclusive Soho House. Apparently, she was at home looking after her five-year-old grandson, George – Adam’s son from a previous relationship.

As with all family rifts, it appears to have begun over a trivial matter.

Caroline and her husband Mark received a wedding invitation, but a source says Holly and Adam weren’t fans of her dress. They reportedly offered to buy her a new one if she’d travel to Bath for the event.

She was unable to travel due to train disruptions caused by the knife attack in Cambridgeshire. Adam was very angry, and the situation quickly worsened, leading Caroline’s family to share heartbreaking messages online about her distress.

One thing is certain. A son who abandons his mum like this, whatever her faults, is despicable.

 

It’s definitely that time of year when Christmas ads get wonderfully strange – like Waitrose’s, which features Keira Knightley developing a crush on Joe Wilkinson, a star from the show ‘Celebrity Traitors,’ after he unexpectedly shows up at her home. Let’s be real, though: most women would probably call the police if a disheveled man with a beard appeared on their doorstep at night!

 

Jen still sparkles

Jennifer Aniston recently spoke with Elle magazine about her $320 million fortune and career success in a historically male-dominated film industry. While acknowledging there’s still progress to be made, she proudly stated that women in Hollywood are effective and accomplish a lot.

It feels like true equality hasn’t arrived yet, Jen. While men are judged on their work, you, even as a huge star in your fifties, still feel pressure to prove your worth by posing in revealing clothing.

 

The BBC’s investigation into Naga Munchetty isn’t likely about a minor issue like how an intern made her toast. It’s much more probable that it stems from a reported inappropriate comment she made to a coworker, though the details haven’t been revealed. Whatever she said, it must be serious enough to put her high-paying job at risk.

 

++ Labour wars ++ 

  • The Guardian’s analysis of the PM’s leadership woes continues: ‘For no good reason, Keir Starmer and his team have chosen to mount a leadership challenge to himself in an act of self-harm that would leave lemmings gawping in amazement.’
  • And, as disenfranchised voters flock to Reform UK, it says: ‘It’s not just Starmer who is fighting for his political life right now. It may also be the Labour party itself.’ Three cheers to that!
  • Emails prove the serially disgraced Peter Mandelson stayed close to bestie and paedophile Jeffrey Epstein until as late as 2016. Mandy truly is the most odious man ever to have entered politics. Now as he is snapped urinating in the street, he clearly doesn’t even have a pot to p*** in.
 

Okay, let’s talk makeup. I’ve noticed a trend popping up everywhere – even on some celebrities – and honestly, it’s a bit of a head-scratcher. It involves overdrawing the lips, specifically the upper lip, with liner way beyond the natural lip line. The result? It can sometimes look a little…unexpected, almost as if someone walked right into a door! While it’s clearly ‘in’ right now, I’m not entirely convinced it’s the most flattering look for everyone.

And, yes, her filler-stuffed face does look like her 1998 hit – Frozen.

 

It’s deeply disturbing that people living near ten-year-old Sara Sharif, who was tragically killed by her father with a cricket bat and metal pole, were too worried about being called racist to report her terrifying screams. If they had spoken up, Sara might still be alive.

 

Television presenter Tess Daly has been awarded an MBE for her contributions to broadcasting. However, some find it difficult to accept this honor when considering the sacrifices made by individuals like her grandfather, Charles, who bravely fought for his country in Egypt, leaving his family behind in Australia. It feels unfair that someone receiving an award for their job is honored in the same way as those who risked their lives in service.

 

Jack Osbourne suggested before going on ‘I’m A Celebrity’ that he’d only discuss his late father, Ozzy, if someone really pushed him to share emotional experiences. Honestly, it’s pretty clear he’s only on the show because of his famous rock star dad.

 

My fringe got me arrested

Recent trials of facial recognition technology at Manchester airport have helped speed up the process of getting through security. However, the system isn’t perfect. Similar technology is used in Australia, and I experienced a problem with it last May. I wasn’t recognized because I’d recently grown a fringe, and was briefly arrested on suspicion of using a false passport. The situation was complicated by the fact that I was also carrying a bottle of undeclared vodka in my carry-on luggage.

 

Reports suggest Sarah Ferguson plans to move to a £3.6 million villa in Portugal, which belongs to her daughter Eugenie and son-in-law Jack Brooksbank. Some speculate she may write her autobiography there. However, after being asked to step down from her charitable roles, it’s unclear if any publishers would be willing to work with her, given her association with a convicted sex offender.

 

The lawyers representing the victims of Axel Rudakubana believe his parents could be charged with a crime, stating they are certain a law was broken. The killer’s father testified that he and his wife were aware their son was collecting weapons and planning an attack, but they did nothing to prevent it. Many people, understandably, hope they face the same fate as their son and are imprisoned.

 

Kate shows William how it’s done

Kate appeared deeply moved while meeting veterans at the National Memorial Arboretum, and she left a heartfelt handwritten message: ‘In memory of those who made the ultimate sacrifice, we will remember them, Catherine.’ Her husband, William, who was likely tired from his recent trip to Brazil focused on environmental issues, shared a video saying simply, ‘Remembrance is for everyone.’ This response felt inadequate and lacked the personal touch expected.

 

I feel for you, Isla

Isla Fisher, who recently separated from Sacha Baron Cohen, shared that she was emotional and cried when she first moved into her new house in north London.

She said creating a fresh life from ‘a grassroots level’ has been ‘tough’.

The house has been completely decorated with furniture from the high-end brand Soho Home, and she showed it off in a feature for Elle magazine.

As a fellow Aussie, I would have cried, too.

The restaurant’s design feels cold and lifeless, especially considering its ridiculously expensive dining table – a tiny piece priced at £5,995. It’s so small, you could barely seat five baby koalas comfortably around it.
