Gordon Ramsay's daughter Holly announces engagement to 'best friend' Adam Peaty

Gordon Ramsay's daughter Holly Ramsay and Olympic medallist Adam Peaty have announced their engagement.

The couple, who have went public with their romance in 2023, announced their engagement with heartfelt Instagram posts on Thursday.

In the post, Ramsay, 24, proudly displayed her stunning gold and diamond engagement ring, while both complemented each other's posts by including bible verses after the Olympic swimmer revealed religion had saved him from addiction.

Alongside a series of snaps, the influencer confirmed: "I am marrying my best friend. I truly cannot put into words how I am feeling right now. I still remember how big my smile was the morning I got home from my first date with you.

“Thank you for letting the little girl inside of me feel loved, seen and happier than ever. I love you & I cannot wait to be your wife.”

She also mentioned Peaty’s son, George, whom he shares with his ex-girlfriend, Eirianedd Munro.

"I promise to always be there with you and George, I’m so grateful [sic] to be in his life and I cannot wait for more,” she continued.

“Everything is better with you. Everything has been better since you. Here’s to forever. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:13."

Peaty also shared his own heartfelt post announcing the engagement. The happy news follows his recent decision to step back from swimming.

He wrote: “I can’t believe you’re going to be my wife. I’m truly the luckiest man on earth to have such a gentle, caring and beautiful woman by my side. You fill my heart to the brim and give my soul peace.

“You have been with me when I’ve been at my lowest and helped me understand myself to navigate my own darkness. 

“You have also celebrated the highs which have been so many, as for the first time in my life, I’m happy with the man I’ve become. You came to church with me and joined the incredible community we have there without a question.

“Your family have always treated me so generously with their time, emotion and trust. I can’t wait to be joined with them too. 

“I’ve always believed that when two people are engaged and later married that we are no longer two people but we join as one and it’s the biggest privilege to share that with you.

“Seeing you show the love you give to the most important person in my life, George, even from day one, there was never a question about you becoming my wife one day. I’m looking forward to our life together and the many challenges we’ll face.

“I promise to always love you with all my heart. Matthew 19:6 ‘So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.’”

Ramsay, the second eldest daughter of chef Gordon Ramsay, and the Olympic gold medalist went public with their romance, three years after they first met in 2021 when he appeared on Strictly Come Dancing alongside her sister, Matilda.
