Ramsey & Peaty wedding

There was a story with Caroline the other day and it was made clear she wasn't being paid. Saturday Daily Mail I think.

Cream with navy trim, apparently.

I see the “family source” aka the aunt has gone straight to the sun now slagging off his sister as well.

for those who claim that the family deserved to be there cos they supported
his swimming career how can they justify them turning on his sister as well?

the fact that they’ve been able to quote verbatim what the text message read while also confirming that Adam never received it because he had blocked them all confirms that the aunt is an awful person.

I think the Aunty putting her 2 penth in constantly hasnt helped at all!!!!

So you want mn to decide what threads are allowed or not, sure if they break a rule fine but seems a bit controlling as it is a forum and people are free to post as they wish we dont have to like it but no one should have the right to be that controlling

Can't mumsnet do something about nasty, nonsense threads like this? Or do you just not want to?

I hope they both had a lovely day, and they have a happy and long marriage. Hopefully wider family behave themselves, and Adam and Holly can go about their lives in relative stability. Let’s face it life isn’t easy at the best of times, no one needs extra hassle from in-laws.

Ooh, who said that? Do you have a link?

thats a good point about being easy to extract

Or because it would be easier to be escorted outside by security in the event they make a scene. The mother probably is a full-blown narcissist judging by her behaviour and the things she says. It's very me me me and people like that love to disrupt someone else's big day.

The whole ‘VB atelier or else’ malarkey is what kicked off the issues with Nicola Peltz, isn’t it, allegedly?

I wonder how that’s going for them all.

I only wondered because of th e report that his father had been told he could attend, but would have to sit in the back row. I could only assume that he wouldn’t fit the vibe.

His mum and aunt seem like an absolute joke, who honestly sells stories to the papers about your family?

Surely the fact his sister was a bridesmaid must tell you something about the mother? I wonder if Holly Ramsay ever posted on here how many would back her up if they got her side and not just the version Adams mum has put out. There’s always more than one side to every story!

He was not really known before outside Olympic circles - it’s a whole different world he has entered - his family look bad because they don’t know what they are doing and don’t understand press machine

we are all just speculating as noone really knows except them

He’s 31, so not that young? Perfectly normal age to get married and know what he wants.

the only people who are saying he has been “seduced by Gordon” are his mum and aunt. Who aren’t exactly going to say “yeah we’ve behaved like dickheads”

I genuinely can’t understand how anyone can take his mums alleged side when we know that it’s a fact that her/her sister have been talking directly to the press and that her son/his brother sent threats that were so unhinged he had to have multiple police escorts off a plane as the threat level was that significant.

I would normally agree with this - but he is young and could easily get seduced

it’s the “Great Expectations” tale old as time - and he would have been under all that pressure with brides family - we know Gordon is a control freak! And the wedding coming and all that expectation

we don’t know if he intends to be NC - he probably intends to see them when dusts settles

It's a myth that people cut someone off as soon as they don't fit or arent good enough. This is his mother. Cutting her off would be the hardest thing to do. Likely issues run much deeper and this was a final straw moment. The fact that they speak to press shows that they are unhinged. They are literally throwing a tantrum and it won't be the first one.

What exactly should Adam tolerate in exchange for a swimming career? Laughable take on things. For all we know the parents pushed him and he couldn't say no as much as he wanted. For all we know the parents pushed him because they enjoyed the glory. He has a talent and it isn't notable in any way for a parent to support that talent. It's what parents do. It's not like they won Olympic medals themselves and swam.

It's all about the PR to drum up work and payments for influencing , reality shows etc, . It's easier than working to make a living.

The whole thing became a shit show.
I don’t particularly like Adam - not sure why. But you can’t take away what he achieved as a swimmer and his parents had a lot to do with that. He appeared to appreciate that support until recently.
Fame and wealth are very seductive and I’m sure Gordon has become a de-facto dad, inspiring Adam to achieve more. I can’t stand Gordon, he’s cheated on his wife in the past so no role model to me.
I noticed Adam’s sister was at the hen and the wedding so he does have some family support.
The Beckhams. Couldn’t put my finger on it but they looked a bit off and Harper, who is a gorgeous young teenage girl, was dressed like a woman twice her age.
As for Adam’s mum I don’t care how hurt she is, selling her story to the Daily Mail is a disgraceful thing to do. Some of her family have too much to say. I’m not a huge fan of Meghan Markle but her family are rank.
As for Caroline not being invited to the hen I think that’s fine.
There is stuff going on that we don’t know about because this young man has airbrushed a seemingly devoted mother from his life. If it’s because her face doesn’t fit, that’s appalling, but there will be more to it.
Same with the Beckhams. I think Brooklyn has been seduced by the wealth of his bride’s family but I also think he’s had a lot to cope with. Tom Bower’s book about them suggests that Victoria leaned on Brooklyn too much, he knew about his father’s affairs. Again, we don’t know all the facts and nor should we.
The whole going NC seems to be so common now.
I cannot for the life of me imagine sitting down with a reporter to slag off a beloved son or daughter.

None of them have any class.

I do feel sorry for his parents though. The time they invested in his swimming success is enormous. To be dropped when they don’t fit in with his new in laws. And being played by the Daily Mail.

Hope they find a way through it.

Money no object & I’d have found a gorgeous church & had a low key but wonderful reception with best food, wine & flowers in Cotswolds.

I think they might have been trying to dictate outfit & she’s a bit stubborn & feisty so it all kicked off. The cream dress & blue pashmina & navy bag might have felt a bit Debenhams MOB ish for their tastes.

The cloak was to hide the dress as they’ve done some deal for photos and it must be exclusive!

With a blue pashmina & blue accessories. All a storm in teacup on outfit IME. She’d hardly outshine bride. Poss they wanted her to adhere to protocol of a VB number & she’s stubborn so this non event blown up.

I couldn’t care less about the story apart from wanting to see what nepo kids get up to.
Frankly the Daily Mail have found a bit of drama and are parading it for all it’s worth.
Surely the Ramsey clan would have known this might happen. Just weird to have a media type wedding under these circumstances. Why not have something more private.
The bridesmaids looked ok to me. The poor bride in cheap looking satin hooded cloak was worse. Just why? The whole thing comes across as naff, rather than a special day for bride and groom. Good luck to them .
