Caroline, of Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, told how she’d first met Holly shortly before last year’s Paris Olympics. During this meeting, her future daughter-in-law reassured her when she expressed fears about Adam, 30, pulling away from the Peaty clan, as he became increasingly immersed in the glamorous world of the Ramsays.

However, cracks started to emerge at the engagement party, to which she claimed that wider family members of the Peaty family weren’t invited.

According to a previous report by the Mail Online, an insider has revealed he will be engaging his “top PR machine” to ensure that nothing will “ruin his beloved daughter’s wedding”.
