Real reason Holly Ramsay and Adam Peaty have banned his mum from hen do

Caroline Peaty was also not invited to Holly Ramsay’s hen do while Adam Peaty did include his father-in-law Gordon Ramsay in plans for his stag night, it is said

Holly Ramsay may have banned her mother-in-law from her hen do because she “might have stuck out a bit,” according to insiders.

Caroline Peaty, 59, was instead at home looking after Adam’s son from his previous relationship when Holly, her own mother Tana, family friend Victoria Beckham and Adam’s sister went on the hen do last weekend. Holly and Adam, who is an Olympic swimmer, have since decided not to invite Caroline to their lavish wedding next month, it is understood.

A source close to Holly, 25, has suggested what she may have considered to reach the decision. They said: “The Ramsays are rich and they like the nicer things in life because they can afford it. On the other hand, the Peatys are far less polished. Adam has a starry new life now and it seems he has left his family behind.”

Another friend added: “You only have to look at the picture to see that there is a certain ‘type’. They all look the same and you wonder if Caroline might have stuck out a bit. She’s a normal woman, not a celebrity. You look at Holly’s Instagram and it’s all so planned, so super-glam and very, very showy. That’s not Caroline.”

Photographs shared on Instagram, including by Posh Spice, show the hen party at the super-exclusive Soho Farmhouse in Oxfordshire was a glitzy affair. The smiling women are seen with cocktails and champagne to celebrate Holly’s last days before she ties the knot to the athlete.

Following the gathering, Caroline posted a picture to Instagram of a quote, which read: “When you love someone, you protect them from the pain, you don’t become the cause of it.” In the caption she added: “The ones I love are the people who hurt me the most.”

Fans jumped in the comments to continue to dig at Adam and the growing animosity with his mother. One wrote: “You only get one mother in life, some people need to remember this.” Another said: “Hold your head up high; not many Mums would’ve got up at 4am for those pool runs. Adam should be so proud.”

And Caroline’s sister, Louise Williams, also became embroiled in the row when she jumped in to call influencer Holly “divisive and hurtful” in a rant about the family rift. The woman, from Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, wrote to Holly on Instagram: “I’m so glad that you had a great hen do. As a bride, you deserve that. However, as a person you were divisive and hurtful towards a woman [Caroline], who I have loved and continue to love deeply.

“A woman who opened her home and heart to you. You decided, for whatever reason, not to invite her, your prospective mother-in-law, to your hen night yet Adam invited his father-in-law, your dad, to his stag night.

“You invited your mum (quite rightly) and even your mum’s assistant, your sisters, your friends, my niece, but not my sister, your future mother-in-law.”

The Daily Mail reports Caroline and husband Mark had initially been invited to the wedding, which will take place at Bath Abbey, and she had even bought a dress for the occasion. However, when Holly revoked the invite amid the bitter feud, Caroline’s other sister, Janet, wrote online Holly and Adam had “broken my darling sister”.

Despite the row, Holly’s family is said to adore Adam. A source said: “The thing with someone like Gordon is that he is kind and caring, he adores his kids and their partners, but he generally gets whatever he wants.

Waitrose Christmas advert sees A-list British actress and comedian make unexpected love match

Waitrose may be one of the last retailers to unveil its Christmas adverts but it has produced a cracker, with Actress Keira Knightley and comedian Joe Wilkinson making an unlikely match

Actress Keira Knightley and comedian Joe Wilkinson star as the unlikely pairing in a romantic Christmas advert for Waitrose.

The festive offering, directed by Bafta-award winning director Molly Manners, follows Knightley and Wilkinson as their relationship blossoms over a shared love of food.

It begins with Wilkinson’s character, forlorn ‘Phil’, sitting in a pub with mates who are urging him to move on in love. He says of his lost love that “the only person I could move on with was Keira Knightley”, to which his friend replies “good luck with that mate.”

As luck would have it, a downcast Phil pops into a branch of Waitrose and standing at the cheese counter when he asks – at the same moment – for the identical ‘Sussex Charmer’ variety as Knightley. Phil plucks up his courage and asks her out, to which Knightley agrees. From there love slowly blooms. But it all appears to go wrong when Phil finds a present to what he assumes is a love rival. Using his culinary skills, Phil vows to win her heart by recreating Keira’s Nan’s turkey pie recipe.

Knightley, whose big screen hits include Bend It Like Beckham through to Pirates of the Caribbean alongside Johnny Depp, said: “I love food, and so when I received this script where I get to fall head over heels in love over a shared love of cheese, I couldn’t turn it down. I adored working on this silly, fun and delicious film with Joe, and I hope those watching it fall in love too.”

Wilkinson, fresh from starring in hit BBC show The Celebrity Traitors, said: “As you can imagine, it was tough having to eat the delicious Waitrose food and falling in love with Keira, but I just got on with it, like the trooper I am.”

Wilkinson reprises his role as Phil from the grocer’s 2024 ‘whodunnit’ festive advert. The soundtrack features the song She’s A Star by British band James.

Waitrose chief customer officer Nathan Ansell said: “Our four-minute Christmas film – an industry first – pays homage to the seasonal romantic comedy tradition, celebrates the exciting and elevated Waitrose festive food offering, and adds a little more of that warm, fuzzy feeling to the holiday season.”

Tesco goes for something altogether different in its Christmas ad campaign

Supermarket Tesco has decided to show what for many is the real – though funny – side of many families’ Christmas in its festive adverts

Family feuds and falling out form part of Tesco’s Christmas ad campaign with a difference this year.

The supermarket giant has opted to ditch the often picture perfect image retailers serve up at this time of year, and show what the big day is really like for many people.

A series of 11 short ads include board game rows, slanging matches between siblings over who is their parents’ favourite child, and awkward chats with the neighbours you don’t really know.

Others have a youngster heading back home up to Merseyside only to be teased about their southern twang, and the silence when a relative says something awkward round the packed Christmas lunch table, just as the turkey arrives.

Tesco’s “That’s What Makes It Christmas” campaign is packaged in a series of standalone films, varying from 10 to 30 seconds long, and created by agency BBH London. The music to each mini film is “Holly Jolly Christmas” and the voice-over is comedian John Bishop.

The adverts – unlike most festive commercials from retailers – don’t focus on blatantly enticing shoppers into parting with their cash. However, Tesco will follow up with other adverts highlighting its product ranges.

They are also deliberately short to work well on social media channels and websites.

But that photo appears to now been deleted, confusing many fans. Taking to the website Reddit, some wondered what was going on. One wrote: “Why delete their pic, we saw them at the party?”

Another speculated that the Sussexes may have asked for their photos to be taken down. They said: “A bit cringe to accept the invite but not want your pics associated with attending (esp when there are pap shots of you going in or out).”

Another literature-minded commenter likened the party to those thrown by Jay Gatsby in the 1925 novel The Great Gatsby. “All these folks, including harry and Meghan are Tom and Daisy Buchanans,” they penned. “If you’ve read gatsby you know what I’m referring to.”

Several billionaires were seen at the party, including Jeff Bezos and his wife Lauren Sanchez, who hosted the 007 themed party at their $165 million Beverly Hills mansion. Kim Kardashian herself is said to have net worth of around $1.7 billion, while her mother is thought to be worth $170 million.

Meghan is not a billionaire, but her net worth, which is already in the millions at a reported $61.2 million, is gradually increasing. This thanks to a plethora of new ventures, including a return to acting.

The cast also features Lily Collins, Brie Larson, Jack Quaid and Henry Golding. Meghan previously retired from acting when she married into the royal family.

I’m A Celeb star Kelly Brook’s major feud with huge star who blanked her live on air

Kelly Brook has opened up about a surprising celebrity encounter as she gears up for her biggest challenge yet – heading into the I’m A Celebrity jungle

I’m A Celebrity contestant Kelly Brook has lifted the lid on her awkward run-in with a huge American superstar – revealing she was completely ignored during a live interview.

The 45-year-old model and presenter, who joins this year’s jungle line-up alongside Ruby Wax, Lisa Riley and social media star Angry Ginge, recalled the uncomfortable moment while speaking about her experiences on air. Kelly, who has co-hosted Heart Radio’s drivetime show with Jason “JK” King since 2019, admitted one celebrity encounter still stands out for all the wrong reasons. “I do have one. Mine was Lizzo,” she revealed.

“I thought she would be a bit more for the women but she didn’t take her glasses off and she didn’t look at me once. She just spoke to JK. For me someone like Lizzo is a strong woman and I just thought she would be a bit warmer towards me. But it was like I didn’t even exist.

“It was weird. It was weird. Most people we love. It’s very rare we get one that’s like that. That was unusual,” she continued to The Sun. The former Strictly Come Dancing star said she had expected more warmth from the Grammy-winning singer – but was left stunned by the cold reception.

Kelly’s comments come just as she prepares to swap the radio studio for the Australian jungle, where she’ll face the ultimate challenge on ITV’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!

Before flying out, Kelly was spotted at Heathrow Airport with husband Jeremy Parisi as she prepared to say goodbye to home comforts – and her beloved dog, Teddy.

She admitted:”I am going to miss my dog Teddy and my husband Jeremy.” According to insiders, Kelly went above and beyond to make sure her pampered pooch was well cared for during her time away.

A source told The Sun: “Kelly is besotted with Teddy and he is used to fine dining, so Kelly spent all hours making sure the freezer was piled high with his special dinners.”

They added: “There’s everything from poached salmon with cavolo nero cabbage through to venison steak with Chantenay carrots. She didn’t have much time to get everything sorted among all her work commitments but catering for Teddy was the priority.”

Reports also claim Kelly even labelled Teddy’s meals to stop her husband from accidentally eating them.

Kelly, who married Italian model in 2022, is said to have finally been convinced to enter the jungle after years of saying she’d never do it.

Back in 2018, she told The Sun: “I hate confined spaces. I don’t want to eat eyeballs or sheep testicles. Even if I had a huge tax bill I had to pay it urgently, I still wouldn’t do it.” Now, seven years later, Kelly has had a change of heart – and fans are eager to see how the glamorous TV personality copes with bugs, bushtucker trials and jungle life.
