Gordon Ramsay’s daughter Holly has announced her engagement to British Olympic gold medalist Adam Peaty, sharing her joy with the world and declaring, “I am marrying my best friend.”
Holly, who has appeared alongside her celebrity chef father on *Hell’s Kitchen* and the British cooking reality series *Matilda and the Ramsay Bunch*, revealed the news on Instagram, showcasing her engagement ring in a series of photos.
In her post, Holly 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.”
She continued, “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.”
Holly also expressed her sentiments: “Everything is better with you. Everything has been better since you. Here’s to forever.” She concluded with a quote from the Bible: “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:13.”
Adam Peaty is a renowned English swimmer who won gold in the 100-meter breaststroke at the 2016 Summer Olympics and defended his title at the 2020 Summer Olympics in 2021. He also earned a silver medal in the same event at the 2024 Paris Olympics and claimed gold in the mixed 4×100-meter medley relay with Team GB in 2020. Peaty has a four-year-old son, George, from a previous relationship, which ended in August 2022.
Peaty shared his excitement on his own Instagram page, writing: “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.”
He added, “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.”
Peaty also expressed his appreciation for Holly’s family, stating they have always “treated me so generously” and he “can’t wait to be joined with them too.”
He concluded, “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.”
