The bride was apparently mobbed by photographers at Adam Peaty and Holly Ramsay’s wedding in Bath Abbey, and a fight reportedly broke out with security.
There were chaotic scenes ahead of Adam Peaty’s nuptials to Holly Ramsay as the bride appeared to find herself surrounded by photographers upon her arrival with her father Gordon. Following last year’s proposal, three-time Olympic gold medallist swimmer Peaty exchanged vows with Ramsay at Bath Abbey on Sunday.
The couple had an A-list congregation that included David and Victoria Beckham, renowned chef Marcus Wareing and television presenter Dan Walker. The couple’s wedding plans have dominated headlines in recent weeks, with a family rift on Peaty’s side resulting in him excluding all but one relative from the ceremony.
Given the significant media coverage and the celebrity guests’ attendance, it’s likely that there was a lot of coverage outside the abbey as the bride made her entrance on Sunday, accompanied by heavy security. However, there were some unpleasant situations when other paparazzi photographers allegedly rushed from a rear entrance, even though the majority of the press was positioned in a designated area at the front of the venue.

It’s claimed the group tried to intercept Ramsay and her father’s arrival. This is said to have resulted in confrontations with security personnel outside the abbey, reports Wales Online.
A skirmish allegedly broke out in a confined passageway next to the Ramsays as bodyguards constructed a protective cordon around the hotel. The bride and the Hell’s Kitchen celebrity reportedly got into a fight during the midst of the chaos.
A source told Hello! Magazine that the situation “descended into chaos”, with “Gordon and Holly, in her wedding dress, being jostled around just as she entered the church.” Despite the commotion, the Ramsays managed to escape with the assistance of security and proceeded into the abbey.
This is the most recent twist in what has been a highly anticipated wedding that was the result of a family feud, which is said to have started with his mother Caroline being denied entry to Ramsay’s hen-do. Bethany Peaty’s sister, who served as the bridesmaid, was the only family member present at the wedding as a result of this.
Caroline said in a conversation with the Daily Mail that the wedding day morning, “I don’t think they understand how badly they have hurt me; it feels like they have cut my heart out.”
“This is the first Christmas that I’ve not had my family together – my family is broken. Yes, I have my other grandchildren. Yes, I have my other children, but my family is split because of the goings on…because of the wedding.”
She continued, “I don’t want to ruin his wedding day, and going would just cause even more of a storm.” I wished I could watch him get married peacefully, but that’s now impossible.
They don’t understand that family is the foundation of everything, though I’m not sure if they are too young or how much of a family I value. When things start to go wrong, you can turn to family as the foundation. That has persisted throughout my entire life.
