Holly Ramsay, the 26-year-old influencer and daughter of celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, looked stunning as she shared fresh glimpses of her luxurious honeymoon in Mauritius with Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty on Tuesday. The newlyweds are staying at the exclusive One&Only Le Saint Géran resort, where suites can command over £6,000 per night, in a trip funded by Holly's parents as a wedding gift.
Glamorous Holiday Snaps from Paradise
Taking to her Instagram Stories, Holly posted a chic selfie wearing a black beaded bikini top paired with a red wrap skirt, her brunette hair styled in a ponytail and accessorised with trendy sunglasses. She also shared a photo of her 31-year-old husband, Adam, strolling shirtless along the resort grounds in black swimming trunks, showcasing the scenic beauty of their idyllic getaway.
A Prestigious Five-Star Retreat
The couple's belated escape to Mauritius follows a delay due to Adam's participation in a swimming competition in Romania. Upon arrival, they were spotted hurrying to the white sand beach, where Adam happily posed for selfies with locals. An onlooker remarked to the Daily Mail that the pair appeared "very loved-up and relaxed," with Adam in great spirits and willing to chat.
Holly later curated a series of holiday snaps for her social media followers, including poses by the beach in a green bikini and a Miu Miu hat, as well as cosy moments with Adam beside a swimming pool. The album, captioned "Honeymoon so far featuring palm trees…", also featured Adam shirtless against the backdrop of the island's north-east Belle Mare coastline.
Luxury and Celebrity History at Le Saint Géran
Set on a private peninsula, Le Saint Géran is one of Mauritius's most prestigious five-star hotel and spa complexes, originally built in 1975. The resort has hosted a glittering array of guests over the years, including Nelson Mandela, George and Amal Clooney, Rihanna, and the Prince and Princess of Wales. Amenities include a helicopter landing pad near the beach and chauffeur-driven luxury car services, with private villas on the palm tree-dotted estate reportedly selling for up to $13.6 million (£10.1 million).
Family Tensions and Wedding Drama
The lavish honeymoon serves as a respite from the drama that marred the couple's wedding day at Bath Abbey on December 27. A family fallout led to Adam's mother, Caroline Peaty, being banned from the ceremony, with only his sister Bethany in attendance from his side. During his father-of-the-bride speech, Gordon Ramsay made remarks that were perceived as digs at Adam's absent parents, adding to the tension.
Adam's emotional speech reportedly praised his swim coach Mel Marshall as being "like a mum," further straining relations. His mother, Caroline, expressed deep hurt from her home in Staffordshire, telling The Mail on Sunday she felt as if Holly and Adam "have cut my heart out" and was outraged by Gordon's comments. Adam's aunt Louise sent a devastating text message before the wedding, condemning the couple for the pain caused to his mother.
Roots of the Conflict and Future Hopes
The conflict traces back to September 2024, when Adam and Holly did not invite wider Peaty family members to their engagement party, and Caroline was excluded from Holly's hen do at Soho Farmhouse. Despite being shunned, Caroline had considered attending the wedding but decided it would be too upsetting, with security guards positioned at the abbey doors as a precaution.
As Holly and Adam enjoy their no-expense-spared honeymoon, covered by Gordon Ramsay who is a repeat visitor to Le Saint Géran with his wife Tana, they hope to leave the family strife behind. Holly revealed to British Vogue that the trip was a wedding present from her parents, subtly referencing Adam's absent parents, and joked about not basing their honeymoon around a 25-metre pool. With curated snaps and relaxed moments, the couple aims to focus on their new life together amidst the tropical paradise.
