The guest list for the wedding of Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty and Holly Ramsay on 27 December 2025 proved to be as star-studded and surprising as the event itself. While the presence of power couple David and Victoria Beckham was widely anticipated, several other famous faces caused a stir among onlookers and fans.
Strictly Come Dancing Connections Take to the Dance Floor
The Strictly Come Dancing family was well represented, thanks to Adam's own stint on the popular BBC show. Former BBC Breakfast presenter Dan Walker was a notable and somewhat unexpected attendee. Walker, who competed in the same series as Peaty in 2021, has publicly praised the athlete, calling him "a top bloke" and saying that getting to know him was one of the highlights of his Strictly experience.
Another familiar face from the ballroom was entrepreneur and Dragons' Den star Sara Davies. She appeared on the 2021 series alongside Tilly Ramsay, Holly's younger sister. It was during this series that Adam and Holly's romance first sparked, when Holly visited the set to support Tilly, though they did not officially confirm their relationship until 2023.
A Feast of Famous Chefs in Attendance
Given that the bride is the daughter of renowned chef Gordon Ramsay, it was no shock to see culinary royalty among the guests. However, the attendance of Marcus Wareing held particular significance. The MasterChef: The Professionals judge and Gordon Ramsay were once very close, with Ramsay even serving as godfather to Wareing's eldest son. After a famous falling out in the late 2000s, the pair revealed they had reconciled earlier in 2025, making his presence a symbol of mended fences.
Also spotted was Paul Ainsworth, a regular on Saturday Kitchen and the 2011 winner of Great British Menu. Ainsworth had worked alongside Gordon Ramsay as a mentor on the UK version of Next Level Chef, further cementing the strong culinary theme of the day.
A Blend of Sport, Showbiz, and Family
The wedding successfully blended worlds, from the sporting elite to television personalities and culinary giants. The Beckham family, minus eldest son Brooklyn, were prominent guests, adding their own dose of global star power. The event highlighted the couple's journey from their Strictly-facilitated meeting to their wedding day, surrounded by a diverse and celebrated circle of friends and family. The presence of both old friends and reconciled colleagues underscored the personal significance of the day beyond the glittering guest list.
