Gordon Ramsay’s Daughter Holly Is Engaged to Olympic Swimmer Adam Peaty! See the Heartfelt Announcement and Engagement Ring Here (original) (raw)

Gordon Ramsay is celebrating a huge milestone in his family: His daughter Holly Ramsay is engaged to Olympic gold medalist Adam Peaty. The couple shared the exciting news on Instagram on September 12, 2024, each writing heartfelt captions that beautifully expresses their love for one another.

Holly first announced her new relationship status by posting a carousel of photos, in which her jaw-dropping engagement ring—what appears to be an oval-shaped diamond with a halo set on a thin gold band—is on full display. In each of the images, the celebrity chef’s daughter is wearing a white bikini, and in the first picture, it looks as if she’s posing in front of an ocean backdrop—hinting at a possible beach engagement.

Along with the photos, Holly posted an earnest tribute to her future husband, expressing their profound love. “I am marrying my best friend,” she began her caption. “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 continued her heartwarming caption by proposing a few vows before quoting a Bible verse. “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. 💍🫶🏻✨🪩💗🧁. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:13.”

The Olympic swimmer also dedicated a post to his fiancée and their engagement. Peaty uploaded a series of similar photos, showcasing Holly’s engagement ring, before praising his future wife’s attributes and opening up about how she has changed his life for the better. “I can’t believe you’re going to be my wife,” he said. “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.”

Peaty proceeded to describe how Holly’s family also made him feel loved and valued—which Holly has returned to him and his son, George (whom he shares with former girlfriend Eirianedd Munro). “Your family have always treated me so generously with their time, emotion and trust,” he added. “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.”

Matching the format of Holly’s post, Peaty too shared a vow and concluded his caption with words from the Bible. “I promise to always love you with all my heart,” he shared. “Matthew 19:6. ‘So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.’”

After Holly and Peaty went public with their engagement, two hours later, Gordon posted about their upgraded relationship status on Instagram, too. “Congratulations to this gorgeous girl @hollyramsayy….so happy for you and @adam_peaty !” he exclaimed. “Hols, watching you become the woman you are today with your kindness and your love is absolutely infectious…Adam is a very lucky man !Welcome to the family ❤️. One down, two to go 😂.” The British restauranteur likewise shared some of the same photos that the engaged couple featured in their own social media posts, but he began the carousel with an image of himself and his daughter—in which both of them are embracing one another and beaming.
