She could have had a lovely velvet cape or something. It just looks so stupid.

DreamTheMoors · 27/12/2025 17:38

Wow.
There are times when I wish my mum was alive to see various women and the terrible taste they have.
This is one of those times.
Mum taught me that in 99% of cases, less is more.

He maybe a foul mouthed chef - but that is all for tv. Honestly, he is such a lovely guy and very sincere.

Our son (28) passed away on the 29th June from a Glioblastoma. When he was first diagnosed June 2022 and after his first craniotomy and treatment, DS started to watch an episode of Hell's Kitchen every evening. He worked his way through all of the series. I wrote to Gordon's PA to ask when the next series would be out. I didn't hear anything for a while and wasn't even sure if my email had arrived or if it had even got to the correct person.

Anyway...after about two months I received a reply apologising for the delay but also saying it's difficult to pin Gordon down. Attached to the email was a lovely personal video to DS from Gordon, he also invited us and DS's friends over to Connecticut for the filming of the up and coming season which was June 2024. We kept in touch as the visit to the states was dependent on DS's scan which was due in the April (this was about the November 2023), unfortunately the scan showed new growth and DS was literally in for another craniotomy within the week. He was unable to fly for so many weeks after and we sadly couldn't fly to the states.

Last December 2024, we were guests at Restaurant Gordon Ramsay and also Lucky Cat/Bar and Grill over two evenings. DS's friends came with us. We were treat like kings and queens. They could honestly not do enough for us.

Am not sure why I have told you all of the above...you certainly didn't need to know it all, but I think the moral of the story is don't judge...😊

With regards to the groom and his mother - we only have one side of the story (hers)...

Wow, that is just incredible. Thank you for sharing.

I naively thought it was the dress. Cos it's midwinter.

purplehearts21 · 27/12/2025 17:56

Not sure why there is so much bitchiness about her bride on her wedding day. It was a cape not a cover up for some magazine deal 😏

BambinaCucina · 27/12/2025 17:57

Pretty certain it's a cape for warmth as it is freezing.

uhtredofbattenberg · 27/12/2025 17:57

OK so I'm kind of right then

Bath Abbey is right in the middle of the shops. To be honest I don't understand why they couldn't have hired a huge country house with a marriage licence and done all this in privacy. All this just screams pretentious attention seekers.

I know it well as my ds is at Bath Uni.
Probably the worst location they could have chosen bearing in mind the footfall around there.
Ds is so glad he is still at home for Xmas and doesn't have to be anywhere near Bath centre!

These people are just the absolute nadir of celebrity culture.

Holly Ramsay has never achieved anything. Nothing. No career, no public service, no intellectual or creative achievement - nothing except a spiteful spat with her mother in law (who seems pretty awful too, always ‘sharing her pain’ with the Daily Mail 🤢).

She’s pretty, sure, but only averagely, no more so than so many other girls of her age on any high street in the UK. Just look around! Other girls who, unlike her, might actually be doing something creative, or building businesses, or helping in their communities. Other girls who far better deserve attention than this poor little do-nothing rich girl!

None of that is her fault, of course (why should she be talented, or interesting?) but what is her fault is her relentless, tasteless, gurning, self-pitying self-publicising; and it shames us all that this self-publicising is succeeding.

She should be left to sink into obscurity. No one should buy a magazine featuring her and her celebmorontastic wedding - it’s revolting. Our media should be better than this.

I find it genuinely odd .. she’s just the daughter of someone, why is there so much interest? Ramsey isn’t even that big a deal 🤷‍♀️

I think the bulk of his success, career, and popularity has been in the US. He’s had more than a dozen TV shows in the States and has a net worth of $220 million. I was surprised at how popular he is when I moved here; he’s literally everywhere.

Nothing says 'fabulous, exclusive winter wedding' more than a pic of the Bath bus behind the bride 😄

And not just any old bus, it's the Uni bus !

TheHillIsMine · 27/12/2025 18:16

They also demanded that the Church was shut to the public for the whole day even though they were using it for 90 minutes.

If it's a cape it's a shit cape 😂

How about something like this?

Why is Holly Ramsay covered with a tablecloth?
Liondoesntsleepatnight · 27/12/2025 18:29

It looks a big dark mark on it? Or is it a shadow?

best wishes to them, after the drama from his family maybe they wanted to keep the dress under wraps? Was there a threat of damaging the dress maybe? Or maybe shy bride?

Ouch... They are doing a Hello magazine spread but haven't invited his mother and other members of his family?

That feels like rubbing it in alot.

I actually feel quite sorry for Caroline Peaty. She must have made huge sacrifices when her son was young -, re his training - and there have been comments that Peaty got his head turned by the Ramsays.

Not excusing anything that happened where Adam got threats from his own brother but apparently it all started over a text that Caroline sent Holly over family being excluded from the engagement party

Caroline apparently has or had an active role in helping Peaty with his son. She was looking after him the weekend of the hen night but isn't good enough to go to the wedding

I don't think he treated his ex Eri very well either and he acknowledged that

I'm on his mums side on this one

Missey85 · 27/12/2025 18:33

It's to hide it for the magazine photos 😂 my guess is she's already sold the story to someone

He's cut his mum out of his life. They no longer speak. Apparently the Peatys had the impression that Adam was ashamed of them after he started moving in the Ramsays circles

I think he's a horrible social climber and nothing will change my mind on that one

Jinglejells · 27/12/2025 18:37

I read about the sacrifices his mum made to support his swimming career. Obviously don’t know what really happened, but surely a mum who went to such lengths to support her child can’t be that bad.

xSideshowAuntSallyXx · 27/12/2025 18:41

Why are people so bitchy on here?

The church was shut after my wedding and only open for my wedding, they only did my wedding on that day. I'm no one special but it gives them time to get the flowers etc ready to shut it before the ceremony and make sure it's set up for Sunday services.

And to the person who said they should have hired a registered venue, maybe they wanted a church wedding. He's religious after all.

I mean yes she made sacrifices but isn’t that what we as parents do. That doesn’t cancel out any wrong they may do in the future.

She should have taken any issues she had with her son’s engagement party or wedding to him not her.

Dad was invited to the stag if I recall previous articles.
Dad was still invited to the wedding.
Sister at hen and wedding.

Seems to be a lot of Dil blaming rather than pointing at their own family member mr
peaty.

His mum has however said she doesn’t think it’s the money as his got plently.

So either pure fame itself but Holly isn’t actually famous or actually mums been a bit of a bitch behind the scenes he had had enough but he is not going public with what.

Did you get married in Bath Abbey though?

A lot of sacrifices - much more than a lot of parents. Adam may look back on this decision and regret it in time
