Holly Ramsay's bridesmaids have faced online mockery over their bouquets at her wedding to Olympian Adam Peaty, with social media users likening the calla lilies to spring onions. The 25-year-old daughter of celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay married the swimmer at Bath Abbey on Saturday before a reception at Kin House.
The bridal party, including Holly's sisters Megan, 27, and Tilly, 24, and sister-in-law Bethany, 32, carried bouquets of calla lilies. The flowers symbolise purity, resurrection, beauty and devotion, but observers drew comparisons to vegetables. One follower commented: 'Gordon Ramsay's daughter having the bridesmaids carry spring onions at her wedding is so on brand.' Another joked: 'Absolutely obsessed w Gordon's influence making the bridesmaids carry in the ingredients for the wedding breakfast though. Iconique.'
The light-hearted jibes come amid a family feud that saw most of Adam Peaty's family absent from the ceremony, following a dispute that led to his mother Caroline being banned. Despite this, body language expert Judi James noted that Holly appeared 'confident and radiantly happy' as she walked down the aisle with her father, while Gordon looked 'nervous' and protective.
James added that Holly and Adam seemed to have set aside the controversy, focusing on their love and enjoyment of the day. The couple's entrance as a married pair suggested they were united despite the family tensions.
