Strictly Come Dancing star Sara Davies has given fans a new glimpse into the exclusive wedding of Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty and celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay's daughter, Holly. The Dragons' Den entrepreneur posted previously unseen photos from the December ceremony at Bath Abbey on her Instagram, describing it as "a fab day".
Celebrity Guests and Unseen Moments
Sara Davies, who became friends with Adam Peaty during the 2021 series of Strictly, uploaded several candid snaps from the high-profile event. One photo shows her laughing with fellow Strictly alumnus Dan Walker at the dinner table. Another captures the celebratory moment wedding guests swung white napkins in the air as the newlyweds, Adam Peaty and Holly Ramsay, entered the room.
Davies also shared a picture from the after-party, posing with Holly's sister, Tilly Ramsay. In her Instagram caption, the businesswoman expressed gratitude for being included, writing: "Awwww just been sent the pics from the Peaty-Ramsay wedding – what a fab day! So grateful to have been there with @adamramsaypeaty and @hollyramseypeaty to celebrate such a wonderful day." She also thanked Gordon Ramsay and his wife Tanya for being "amazing hosts".
A Celebration Overshadowed by Family Drama
The joyous occasion was marred by a very public family feud, which meant the majority of Adam Peaty's family were not in attendance. His mother, Caroline Peaty, was not invited, and reports suggested his father, Richard Peaty, could only attend if he sat at the back of the historic Bath Abbey. Adam's brother, James, who had been set to be a groomsman, was also uninvited.
The only family member from Adam's side present was his sister, Bethany, who served as a bridesmaid. She stood alongside Holly's sisters, Megan and Tilly Ramsay. In the days leading up to the wedding, Caroline Peaty spoke publicly about her devastation, telling the Mail: "I don’t think they understand how much they have hurt me; it’s as if they have cut my heart out." She described it as the first Christmas without her family together, stating, "my family is broken".
Public Reaction and Moving Forward
While many followers complimented Sara Davies on her appearance in the photos, numerous comments focused on the absent family. One fan wrote: "Wonder how Adam’s mum must be feeling seeing celebs at her sons wedding and she not there as a mum must be awful." Another added: "Not such a great day for his family though was it."
A source close to the Peaty family told The Sun they are "trying to move on" after the fallout. "It’s been a really emotional time for them as a family," the source said. "They’re coming to terms with what has happened and that Adam has picked his side. They’re keeping their heads down and trying to move on quietly. It’s clear Adam’s made his choice."
The wedding, which took place shortly after Christmas, was a star-studded affair. Gordon Ramsay later shared a gushing social media post about his new son-in-law, referring to himself as "dad" in a comment on Adam Peaty's wedding speech clip. Despite the underlying family tensions, Sara Davies's photos depict a celebration filled with laughter and high spirits for those who were present.
