Adam Peaty and Holly Ramsay are engaged!
Olympic swimmer Adam, 29, and 24-year-old Holly – TV chef Gordon Ramsay’s daughter – are due to be married as the athlete took to social media with a heartfelt announcement.
Alongside a photo of the pair loved up and a great big engagement ring on Holly’s finger, Adam 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.’
Adam then quoted bible passage Matthew 19:6, as he said: ‘So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.’
On his Instagram story Adam revealed he’s been working with Pragnell Jewellery for 10 months to make the incredible ring.
Meanwhile, Holly took to social media with her own words, as she wrote: ‘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.
‘I promise to always be there with you and George, I’m so grateful to be in his life and I cannot wait for more.
‘Everything is better with you. Everything has been better since you. Here’s to forever.’
Holly also added her own nod to the Bible, as she added: ‘And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:13.’
Her sister Tilly took to the comments section and said: ‘Couldn’t be happier for you both!! I love you guys.’
The pair confirmed their relationship in June 2023 after they were spotted interacting on social media.
Adam met Holly through her sister Tilly, who competed on Strictly Come Dancing at the same time as him in 2021.
Since then, their relationship has gone from strength to strength as they even got matching tattoos.
Adam’s love of the Ramsay family extends to Holly’s celebrity chef father, Gordon, who he credits for helping him escape ‘three years of hell’ struggling with alcoholism and his split from ex-girlfriend Eirianedd Munro.
Speaking with The Sunday Times, Adam recalled withdrawing from racing due to his breakdown fuelled by depression, anxiety, heavy drinking, and ADHD.
‘He’s an incredible energy to be around and an incredible person to have that guidance from,’ Adam said.
‘Gordon is a high performer. He worked his way up to the upper echelons of his industry and works in a place where there’s no bull s**t.
‘I take a lot from that and from the professionalism he has every single day with a relentless pursuit.
‘So, when I see that, I’m like, “Yeah, why can’t I work like this? Why can’t I do this every single day? Why do I have to be so emotionally engaged with things?”‘
Adam shares son George, four, with ex-girlfriend Eirianedd who he split from in August 2022.
