Olympic champion Adam Peaty has reportedly spent close to £10,000 on a lavish set of designer luggage for his new wife, influencer Holly Ramsay. The extravagant gifts were showcased by Holly on social media as she supported Peaty at a swimming event in Romania, mere weeks after their star-studded wedding.
Lavish Gifts Poolside in Romania
The couple, who married on December 27 at Bath Abbey, were in Romania for Adam's participation in the 'Sprint With The Stars' event. While cheering on her husband, Holly Ramsay took to her Instagram Stories to reveal three high-end designer bags, with a combined value exceeding £9,000.
The haul included a £2,400 powder pink Dior Toujours Vertical Nano Tote, a £3,550 LOEWE Amazona 31 Panta Shoulder Bag, and a £3,450 Dior D-Journey bag. Captioning her post, the 26-year-old model and influencer wrote: "The most chic hand luggage, thanks to my husband!"
A Wedding Marred by Family Tensions
The newlyweds' marriage began dramatically, with a reported feud within Adam Peaty's family leading to a poignant ceremony. Adam walked down the aisle without any of his immediate family present, save for his sister Bethany, who served as a bridesmaid.
The wedding, financed by Holly's father, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, was a grand affair at the historic Bath Abbey. Security was needed to manage onlookers, and the venue was decorated with thousands of white roses. High-profile guests included Victoria and David Beckham, though their son Brooklyn was absent.
Holly wore her mother Tana's 1990s wedding dress for the first dance, alongside designer gowns by Ellie Saab. The tension escalated during Gordon Ramsay's speech, where he reportedly made a pointed comment about the absence of Adam's family, stating "it's a shame" Holly lacked in-laws.
Ongoing Family Fallout and Emotional Aftermath
The rift appears profound. A source told The Sun: "It’s been a really emotional time for them as a family. They’re coming to terms with what has happened and that Adam has picked his side." The source added that the family is trying to "move on quietly."
On the eve of the wedding, Adam's mother, Caroline, expressed her devastation to the Mail, saying: "I don’t think they understand how much they have hurt me; it’s as if they have cut my heart out."
Following a honeymoon in Mauritius, the couple's trip to Romania marks a return to work for Peaty, with Holly proudly displaying the luxurious tokens of their new life together amidst the ongoing personal drama.
