Holly Ramsay will unveil her wedding dress in a New Year’s Day spread for Vogue magazine.
The Influencer, 25, married Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty, 31, on Saturday at Bath Abbey, in a day tarnished by the groom’s family feud, but kept her dress under wraps.
Holly wore a billowing ivory cloak over her gown as she walked into the Abbey on the arm of her father Gordon, and put the cover-up back on for her walk outside the ceremony with new husband Adam.
Fans will finally get to see the dress, which was reportedly designed by family friend Victoria Beckham, in a lavish spread in Vogue Magazine, whilst the build up to the couple’s wedding will also feature on Gordon’s upcoming Netflix show.
Influencer Holly and sportsman Adam are a surprising choice for Vogue, which traditionally features the nuptials of Hollywood A-listers such as George and Amal Clooney, royals and high society.
The newlyweds are following in the footsteps of Holly’s friends Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz, whose June 2022 wedding featured in the British edition of the magazine, with a source revealing: ‘Holly has always wanted to do Vogue so this is a coup.’

The only part of Holly’s dress visible under her satin cloak was a high, lace neckline, with Beauty Editor, Laura Sutcliffe, spilling to HELLO! magazine that Victoria Beckham has been using more lace ‘accents’ in her recent collections and the wedding dress included delicate ‘meshwork at the neckline’.
Holly is thought to have worn two different dresses during her big day, donning the Victoria Beckham design for the Abbey service before changing into a gown worn by her mother Tana on her wedding day to Gordon in 1996.
The sweet nod to her mother followed another matching moment for the mother and daughter who wore coordinating Amina Muaddi slingback lace heels for the ceremony on Saturday.
It’s also been reported that the build up to the Ramsay Peaty wedding, including the controversial engagement party which is said to have sparked the family feud with Adam’s parents, will feature in Gordon’s upcoming Netflix show.
Being Gordon Ramsay is due for release early next year. It was reported this month that Adam’s estranged family have reportedly demanded their removal from the documentary series amid their ongoing feud.
The swimmer’s mother Caroline is said to have written to Netflix bosses to say they did not consent to being filmed at Adam and fiancée Holly Ramsay’s engagement party.
A spokesman for the Ramsay family told the Daily Mail the Peaty family attended the engagement party and were aware it was filmed and they won’t be featured into the final edit.
They said: ‘There were filming notices up all over the party saying “by attending, you give consent to being filmed. They are not interviewed, there is no on-camera speaking and they are not featured in the finished edits of the programme, so no additional consent would have been required.’

Adam meanwhile has made a huge statement about his future family ties by changing his name on social media to Adam Ramsay Peaty.
The name change is the latest sign that Adam has distanced himself from his own family, after uninviting his parents from his wedding at Bath Abbey.
Adam has followed in the footsteps of Brooklyn Beckham, who added his wife Nicola’s surname Peltz to his name after marrying the US star in 2022.
Like Adam, Brooklyn has cut ties with his parents David and Victoria, with that family feud cited as the reason he didn’t attend Adam and Holly’s wedding, despite being close friends with the bride since childhood.
Adam tied the knot with influencer Holly at Bath Abbey on Saturday with a reception following at the swanky Kin House – amid his bitter fallout with his family which saw his mother Caroline uninvited from proceedings.
Sitting at home more than 130 miles away in Staffordshire, Adam’s broken–hearted mother Caroline was said to be ‘beside herself’ with grief at missing what should have been one of the happiest days of her life.
The Peaty family were all uninvited from the nuptials, aside from Adam’s sister Beth who was a bridesmaid.

Adam’s father Mark was seen on Monday near his Staffordshire home after it was reported that he asked to attend the big day, however was told he’d have to sit at the back
According to new reports on Sunday, Adam’s father Mark was the only person beside Beth asked to attend their big day, however he was told he’d have to sit at the back ‘behind the plus ones’.
Meanwhile father of the bride Gordon Ramsay reportedly made a brutal dig at his new son-in-law’s parents in his speech.
Gordon, 59, waded into the Peaty family drama by saying his wife Tana ‘will be a good mum to them both’, according to a new report in The Sun which also claims Adam has now blocked his family from messaging him.
They report that in his father of the bride speech Gordon commented on how beautiful Holly looked and told Adam he was a ‘lucky man’, adding: ‘Look at Tana and that’s what you have to look forward to.’
The publication goes on to claim that Gordon couldn’t resist a sly dig at Adam’s absent parents he told his daughter Holly: ‘Shame you don’t have the same.’
Adam is thought to have not mentioned his family or parents in his speech, instead praising his swim coach Mel Marshall for being his ‘everything’, and for ‘grounding and inspiring’ him.

In an emotional moment he also reportedly said that he saw Mel ‘like a mum’ due to her support.
A source told the publication: ‘This was the Ramsays’ plan all along. They wanted Adam’s family gone and they have succeeded.
‘You’d think that as parents, Gordon and Tana would have a bit more compassion towards Caroline, Mark and the family.’
Representatives for Adam and Gordon have been contacted by The Daily Mail for comment.
Holly swept into her wedding in Bath Abbey on the arm of her celebrity chef father, but kept her lace gown concealed beneath a billowing hooded ivory cloak.
If the influencer appeared nervous as she made her way through a chaotic crowd of onlookers before she headed down the aisle to exchange vows with Adam, she had good reason.
For behind the couple’s lavish nuptials lay an ugly family drama which resulted in the groom’s mother – and nearly every member of his family – excluded from the dazzling ceremony amid claims of snobbery and classism.

Speaking from the council house where Adam grew up, the 59–year–old told The Mail on Sunday: ‘I’m not going to be hurt like this again’.
She had told Daily Mail that she felt as if Holly and Adam ‘have cut my heart out’.
This newspaper can also reveal that, moments before he walked into the abbey clutching the hand of his five–year–old son George, Adam Peaty was sent a devastating text message by his aunt Louise, who was also not invited to the wedding.
In it, she wrote: ‘I hope you never suffer the depth of pain you have put your mother through and despite it all she loves you still. Shame on you both. Shame.
‘Remember on this, your happiest day, and on each anniversary of your happiest day, that you hurt your mum so deeply her soul screams.’
The roots of this terrible family conflict go back to September 2024, when Adam and Holly snubbed wider members of the Peaty family by not inviting them to their engagement party.
Caroline, who spent years ferrying her son to early–morning training sessions, was also not invited to Holly’s glamorous hen do at Soho Farmhouse in the Cotswolds last month, even though the bride’s mother, Tana Ramsay, and friends including Victoria Beckham, were at the extravagant bash.
Despite everything Caroline sent a card and gift to her newlywed son for his 31st birthday today.
Meanwhile, Adam’s 73–year–old great–aunt Janet, who was also left out of yesterday’s wedding, told The Mail on Sunday: ‘I just feel so sorry for Caroline.
Sitting at home more than 130 miles away in Staffordshire, Adam’s broken–hearted mother Caroline was said to be ‘beside herself’ with grief at missing the wedding
‘I can’t believe he’s done this to his mother who’s done so much for him from an early age. To be treated like this is not kind.’
Despite being shunned, devastated Caroline had threatened to turn up at the wedding anyway – and, if barred from entering the abbey, stand outside and watch from the street.
She said that she changed her mind after her husband Mark convinced her it would be ‘too upsetting’ to go along.
Had she defied her son’s ban, she would have found herself face–to–face with five security guards, placed in front of the abbey’s ancient and elaborately carved wooden doors, which were framed by decorative columns of white roses and hydrangeas.
Security formed a protective ring around the bride and her famous family as they struggled through the confined passageway besides historic the venue.

Guests, which included the likes of David and Victoria Beckham, were all required to wear mandatory wrist bands for security reasons.
Meanwhile crowds of onlookers gathered around the Abbey to try and catch a glimpse of the bride, in what was described by one onlooker as ‘chaotic’ scenes.

According to new reports on Sunday, Adam’s father Mark was the only person beside Beth asked to attend their big day, however he was told he’d have to sit at the back ‘behind the plus ones’.
After being kicked off the invite list, Adam’s estranged brother James posted an old photograph with their mother Caroline Peaty standing outside of the wedding venue.
The poignant photo was deleted just 15 minutes after it was shared on his Instagram Story, perhaps signalling regret at how bitter the feud has become.
It won’t be lost on those who have followed the fallout the choice of location in the image, where Adam and Holly married just hours before the snap was posted.
Adam’s estranged brother James shared a pointed message with a ‘dark hidden meaning’ to his sibling after being uninvited to his wedding
The photo – taken on a different occasion – shows mother and son stood alone and dressed in what could be wedding finery in a symbolic move.
Notably, James – who was arrested for allegedly sending threatening messages to the athlete during his stag do – used a telling song alongside the image.
James’s song of choice was a remix of ‘Speak Softly, Love’, which appears several times in the iconic Mafia film, The Godfather.
The first of the trilogy was released in 1972 and tells the story of the son of a Mafia boss Michael Corleone [Al Pacino] meeting ‘outsider’ Kay Adams [Diane Keaton].
Seemingly in this case, James is comparing The Corleones to the Ramsays, who are the more powerful family – while his brother Adam is ‘the outsider’.
The relationship deteriorates as Michael embraces his role as the Mafia boss, culminating in the last scene where the door shuts on Kay, symbolising her exclusion.
The now-deleted post of James and his mother was the only photo shared to his Instagram page, which has since been completely wiped of any images.
Adam’s ‘distraught’ mother Caroline was spotted the day after her son got married without her in attendance
The Ramsay family splashed out thousands on the venue, where weddings normally cost around £2,500, block–booking it for the day to ensure the service took place in absolute secrecy.
Having found fame and fortune for his foul–mouthed antics in the kitchen, Gordon Ramsay was on his best behaviour as he helped his daughter from a black Rolls–Royce which drew up outside the Gothic abbey at about 12.30pm.
He was seen whispering in her ear before kissing her cheek while an attendant straightened her outfit.
Buffeted by an icy wind, the pair were mobbed by well–wishers shouting ‘Merry Christmas’ as they passed.
Waiting inside for a first glimpse of the bride was a celebrity–studded congregation, including Sir David and Victoria Beckham, who are no strangers to family feuds themselves.

Their sons Romeo and Cruz and daughter Harper, who are close friends of the Ramsays, were also there – but not estranged son Brooklyn.
Marcus Wareing from Masterchef: The Professionals and his wife Jane were also there.
The ensuing ceremony, one guest later told The Mail on Sunday, was ‘beautiful and very emotional’.
Like Adam, who is a devout Christian, Holly was determined that they would exchange vows in a religious service. Peaty’s son George, from a previous relationship, was said to have played a pivotal role in the ceremony.
The three bridesmaids were Holly’s older sister Megan, 27, younger sister Tilly, 24, and Adam’s sister Bethany – the only member of his family to be invited to the event, as well as to the hen party.
Other relatives said Bethany had been included as one of the bride’s attendants because she ‘fits in’ with the Ramsays’ glamorous world.
In what was seen by some as a display of defiance against her family, Bethany linked arms with Holly’s eldest sister as they entered the abbey carrying white arum lilies.
The bridesmaids wore red flowing dresses designed by Victoria Beckham. The former Spice Girl also wore one of her own frocks, a £1,290 teal number, and the dark green silk dress worn by the bride’s mother, 51–year–old Tana, was also from Lady Beckham’s label.
Peaty, meanwhile, slicked back his hair and wore the same dinner suit as his new father–in–law.
There was no word, however, on the designer behind Holly’s romantic floral–patterned lace dress which was kept under wraps until the influencer was inside the abbey, away from prying cameras.
Other than the glaring absence of Peaty’s family, the bride and groom were declared man and wife without any drama.
The newlyweds left church at around 1.30pm to a joyful peal from the abbey bells and were driven away to their reception at Kin House, a Georgian manor house 17 miles away, near Chippenham.

There, guests were served a wedding banquet which featured prawn cocktail, beef Wellington and pan–roasted halibut followed by a tarte tatin. A traditional wedding cake was served at 8pm.
A source said: ‘Holly and Adam have been meticulous in their planning and it’s come together perfectly. They couldn’t wait to share everything with their guests.’
While the ceremony and reception were conducted in the utmost secrecy, it’s likely they will feature in an upcoming Netflix documentary series about life in the Ramsay family.
Its airing – expected early next year – may well be the first proper glimpse Caroline Peaty will get of her own son’s wedding.
On Sunday morning Adam’s Strictly Come Dancing co-star Dan Walker shared the first glimpse inside the Olympian’s ‘unforgettable’ wedding.
TV presenter Dan, 48, who competed on Strictly with Adam in 2021, took to Instagram to share a photo of the couple’s order of service and gushed over the ‘wonderful’ day.
Dan, who attended the ceremony with his wife Sarah, wrote: ‘We had a lovely time celebrating with @adam_peaty & @hollyramsayy yesterday.
‘Great wedding, top people, wonderful service, unforgettable reception, brilliant speeches and we got to sing some bangers in the church too’.
As well as showing off the illustrated cover of the order of service, Dan included a picture from inside, showing the words to the hymn Be Thou My Vision, which also soundtracked his Instagram post.
Dragon’s Den star Sara Davies, 41, was also among the celebrity attendees after forming a friendship with Adam when they both appeared on Strictly.

While Sara is yet to share any snaps with the couple on their wedding day, she did post a sweet message to Adam on Instagram on Sunday and shared pictures of the pair.
She sweetly said: ‘Yesterday I had the privilege of being at this amazing man’s wedding – and it also gave me a moment to reflect on how lucky I’ve been to have him in my life over the past four years.
‘From the first day we met on Strictly, we’ve been firm friends, and it was a real honour to sit in Bath Abbey and watch him get emotional as the love of his life walked down the aisle.
‘It was such a special day. Simon and I had the best time, the service was beautiful – and I’m sure you’ll not be surprised to hear me say, it was hands down the best wedding food I’ve ever had.
‘Wishing my wonderful friend and his gorgeous bride a lifetime of happiness together.’
