Adam and Holly Ramsay have jetted away from the family drama and off on honeymoon two days after tying the knot.
The newlyweds were spotted leaving Gordon Ramsay’s home on Monday afternoon with piles of luggage to head to the airport.
Adam and Holly have already settled into married life, with both changing their name to Ramsay Peaty on their social media accounts over the weekend.
The Olympic swimmer, 31, tied the knot with influencer Holly, 25, at Bath Abbey on Saturday, in nuptials which have been overshadowed by a lengthy feud with the groom’s parents.
The huge rift between the two families has become increasingly clear ever since Adam uninvited them from the day and his mother was left out of Holly’s henparty.
Father of the bride Gordon reportedly made a brutal dig at his new son-in-law’s parents in his speech, leaving Adam’s mother Caroline ‘outraged’.

Gordon, 59, waded into the Peaty family drama by saying his wife Tana ‘will be a good mum to them both’, according to a new report in The Sun which also claims Adam has now blocked his family from messaging him.
They report that in his father of the bride speech Gordon commented on how beautiful Holly looked and told Adam he was a ‘lucky man’, adding: ‘Look at Tana and that’s what you have to look forward to.’
The publication goes on to claim that Gordon couldn’t resist a sly dig at Adam’s absent parents he told his daughter Holly: ‘Shame you don’t have the same.’
Adam’s estranged mother is ‘outraged’ and ‘hurt’ that Gordon Ramsay referred to their bitter family feud in his explosive father of the bride speech, a family source has said.
Caroline Peaty, who was banned from the lavish ceremony, believes the celebrity chef had ‘pre planned’ the cruel swipe against her.
A family source told the Daily Mail: ‘Caroline can’t believe Gordon brought their family troubles up his speech. It is outrageous and very hurtful.’
‘By him saying Tana will be a good mum to them both makes Caroline sound like a bad mum. It was a cruel dig at her.
‘She has always done her best for all her children. She is a very good mum.

Adam’s father Mark was seen on Monday near his Staffordshire home after it was reported that he asked to attend the big day, however was told he’d have to sit at the back
‘Who says this wasn’t pre-planned.?’
The source added: ‘We may not have much as a family but we have values.’
Adam is thought to have not mentioned his family or parents in his speech, instead praising his swim coach Mel Marshall for being his ‘everything’, and for ‘grounding and inspiring’ him.
In an emotional moment he also reportedly said that he saw Mel ‘like a mum’ due to her support.
Mother-of-four Caroline, 60, and husband Mark remained behind closed doors at their modest home in Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, during the wedding day and reception.
Holly swept into her wedding in Bath Abbey on the arm of her celebrity chef father, but kept her lace gown concealed beneath a billowing hooded ivory cloak.
If the influencer appeared nervous as she made her way through a chaotic crowd of onlookers before she headed down the aisle to exchange vows with Adam, she had good reason.
For behind the couple’s lavish nuptials lay an ugly family drama which resulted in the groom’s mother – and nearly every member of his family – excluded from the dazzling ceremony amid claims of snobbery and classism.

Security formed a protective ring around the bride and her famous family as they struggled through the confined passageway besides historic the venue.
Sitting at home more than 130 miles away in Staffordshire, Adam’s broken–hearted mother Caroline was said to be ‘beside herself’ with grief at missing what should have been one of the happiest days of her life.
Speaking from the council house where Adam grew up, the 59–year–old told The Mail on Sunday: ‘I’m not going to be hurt like this again’.
She had told Daily Mail that she felt as if Holly and Adam ‘have cut my heart out’.
This newspaper can also reveal that, moments before he walked into the abbey clutching the hand of his five–year–old son George, Adam Peaty was sent a devastating text message by his aunt Louise, who was also not invited to the wedding.
In it, she wrote: ‘I hope you never suffer the depth of pain you have put your mother through and despite it all she loves you still. Shame on you both. Shame.
‘Remember on this, your happiest day, and on each anniversary of your happiest day, that you hurt your mum so deeply her soul screams.’
Following the ceremony the wedding party headed to the reception at the nearby Georgian Manor Kin House
The roots of this terrible family conflict go back to September 2024, when Adam and Holly snubbed wider members of the Peaty family by not inviting them to their engagement party.
Caroline, who spent years ferrying her son to early–morning training sessions, was also not invited to Holly’s glamorous hen do at Soho Farmhouse in the Cotswolds last month, even though the bride’s mother, Tana Ramsay, and friends including Victoria Beckham, were at the extravagant bash.
Meanwhile, Adam’s 73–year–old great–aunt Janet, who was also left out of the wedding, told The Mail on Sunday: ‘I just feel so sorry for Caroline.
‘I can’t believe he’s done this to his mother who’s done so much for him from an early age. To be treated like this is not kind.’
Despite being shunned, devastated Caroline had threatened to turn up at the wedding anyway – and, if barred from entering the abbey, stand outside and watch from the street.
She said that she changed her mind after her husband Mark convinced her it would be ‘too upsetting’ to go along.
Had she defied her son’s ban, she would have found herself face–to–face with five security guards, placed in front of the abbey’s ancient and elaborately carved wooden doors, which were framed by decorative columns of white roses and hydrangeas.
Guests, which included the likes of David and Victoria Beckham, were all required to wear mandatory wrist bands for security reasons.
Meanwhile crowds of onlookers gathered around the Abbey to try and catch a glimpse of the bride, in what was described by one onlooker as ‘chaotic’ scenes.
Security formed a protective ring around the bride and her famous family as they struggled through the confined passageway besides historic the venue.
The Ramsay family splashed out thousands on the venue, where weddings normally cost around £2,500, block–booking it for the day to ensure the service took place in absolute secrecy.
The Peaty family were all uninvited from the nuptials, aside from Adam’s sister Beth who was a bridesmaid (pictured back right with Holly’s sisters Megan and Tilly Ramsay)
Like Adam, who is a devout Christian, Holly was determined that they would exchange vows in a religious service. Peaty’s son George, from a previous relationship, was said to have played a pivotal role in the ceremony.
The three bridesmaids were Holly’s older sister Megan, 27, younger sister Tilly, 24, and Adam’s sister Bethany – the only member of his family to be invited to the event, as well as to the hen party.
Other relatives said Bethany had been included as one of the bride’s attendants because she ‘fits in’ with the Ramsays’ glamorous world.
In what was seen by some as a display of defiance against her family, Bethany linked arms with Holly’s eldest sister as they entered the abbey carrying white arum lilies.
The bridesmaids wore red flowing dresses designed by Victoria Beckham. The former Spice Girl also wore one of her own frocks, a £1,290 teal number, and the dark green silk dress worn by the bride’s mother, 51–year–old Tana, was also from Lady Beckham’s label.
Peaty, meanwhile, slicked back his hair and wore the same dinner suit as his new father–in–law.

There was no word, however, on the designer behind Holly’s romantic floral–patterned lace dress which was kept under wraps until the influencer was inside the abbey, away from prying cameras.
Other than the glaring absence of Peaty’s family, the bride and groom were declared man and wife without any drama.
The newlyweds left church at around 1.30pm to a joyful peal from the abbey bells and were driven away to their reception at Kin House, a Georgian manor house 17 miles away, near Chippenham.
There, guests were served a wedding banquet which featured prawn cocktail, beef Wellington and pan–roasted halibut followed by a tarte tatin. A traditional wedding cake was served at 8pm.
A source said: ‘Holly and Adam have been meticulous in their planning and it’s come together perfectly. They couldn’t wait to share everything with their guests.’
While the ceremony and reception were conducted in the utmost secrecy, it’s likely they will feature in an upcoming Netflix documentary series about life in the Ramsay family.
Its airing – expected early next year – may well be the first proper glimpse Caroline Peaty will get of her own son’s wedding.
