Adam Peaty was supported by his wife Holly Ramsay at the Commonwealth Games. The Olympian, 31, has been married to Gordon Ramsay's daughter since December last year, and she is currently pregnant with their first child.
Holly was full of smiles as she looked on, and also got her phone out to take pictures of the memorable occasion as she watched her husband take on Men's 50m breaststroke on day three of the games. The influencer kept things simple with her look, opting for a black T-shirt and kept her dark locks flowing free.
Emotional Bronze and Family Feud
This is the second day of watching for Holly as on Saturday he finished third in the men's 100 metres breaststroke final and throughout the race, Holly could be seen watching proudly from the stands. After he finished, Adam raced over to his significant other and kissed her belly. But as he accepted his bronze medal, the former Strictly Come Dancing star appeared to take a swipe at his family amid their ongoing feud.
He broke down in tears after the race on Saturday, taking a swipe at his family as he told PA that it was tough considering the 's**t' he's been through.
“It’s hard because I know how hard I work. I know the s**t I’ve been through, which is no fault of my own, but it does take its toll.
“I’m not crying because it’s bronze instead of gold. I’m crying because I know I am better than that. I feel like I couldn’t have put any more in and that’s where it hurts, because I’m like, ‘What’s the point of all the metres every day, what’s the point of being exhausted all the time?’
“‘What’s the point of having to say no to family events so you can go to training’? It has to mean something and for me it has to be human excellence and that is not excellence for me. So that’s the emotion that is unfortunately coming out.”
Everything took a dramatic turn for the Peatys last year when Adam's mother, Caroline, was not invited to the bride's hen do - or their wedding, and he has not spoken to the majority of his family since.
Future Plans and Fatherhood
After his Sunday race, he said that his current plan to end his career at the LA Olympics in 2028 will be “the hardest climb I have ever faced”.
“There have been a multitude of things at play over the last few years - burnout, breaking my foot, fighting against something that you love. It’s been hard,” he said. “Some of it has been quite painful, particularly from that foot injury onwards,” he told The Guardian.
“Coming back to where I am now and making the decision to go for LA, I think this is going to be the hardest climb I’ve ever faced and the hardest test. It’s really hard to see the summit because it’s so hard. I don’t think anyone understands.”
During a recent appearance on BBC Breakfast, he reflected on the last few months, insisting: “2026 has already been one of those years. Our wedding was one of the best days of my life. Watching Holly walk down the aisle, it’s a view that I’ll never ever forget.
“Having Gordon as my father-in-law is an incredible blessing. I'm also expecting a baby little girl. Well, I’m incredibly excited. For me, that role of being a father has been just incredible. To have another human in this world that loves and cherishes you, I think it’s the biggest blessing.
“My love for them isn’t going to be judged by a medal, and obviously with Holly going through pregnancy, all I can pray for is her happiness and health, as well as the baby. And for me, that does push me even more to, I guess, grow up.”
