Adam Peaty’s heartbroken mother, Caroline, has revealed she resorted to selling things on Vinted in order to raise enough cash to buy a dress for his wedding, before she was uninvited
Adam Peaty’s mum was forced to sell things to raise cash for his wedding. In recent months, the Olympian and his family have endured a strained relationship, and it has reached a crisis point.
His family, apart from his sister, have been uninvited to his upcoming wedding to Holly Ramsay next month. But tensions started brewing a while back, according to his devastated mother, Caroline. Last weekend, Holly, the daughter of chef Gordon and his wife Tana, enjoyed her hen do at Shoreditch House, surrounded by her glamorous friends and family.
Meanwhile, Team GB icon Adam’s mum was at home in Uttoxeter, looking after his son from a previous relationship. Adam was also in Budapest for his stag do, with guests including his soon-to-be father-in-law, but sources have claimed that Caroline didn’t fit the image of Holly and her pals, meaning she wasn’t included.
However, Caroline had been extremely excited for his wedding, but now faces the devastating reality of not being there. Prior to their fallout, Adam had offered to pay for all of her costs, including dress, shoes, nails and hair. Caroline said she would have needed four dresses for the entire event.
She had chosen a cream dress, which she had hoped to wear with navy blue accessories. “He told me ‘Only a bride wears white,’ to which I replied ‘It’s not white, it’s cream,'” she told the Daily Mail. While Caroline has returned this dress, she has kept one.
She decided to keep a gold two-piece with a matching fascinator and the shoes, which she had paired with the dress, which cost a staggering £452. Speaking of the dress and how she afforded it, Caroline revealed: “Do you know how I raised that money? I sold some things on Vinted.”
Despite the fallout, Caroline admits that she still very much loves her son and he will always be welcome at their family home in Staffordshire. She revealed that on her journey home after dropping Adam’s son off with his mother, she felt as though she “didn’t want to live” anymore.
“This has broken me,” she told the outlet. Adam’s older brother, James, affectionately known as Jim, was asked to be a groomsman at the wedding on December 27, but he has also been uninvited. Earlier this week, James was arrested and later bailed after allegedly sending threats to Adam while he was on his stag do.
Sources have claimed that Adam’s mother, Caroline, has been enabling James’ alleged behaviour. They went on to add that he had no intentions of harming his brother. Caroline’s sister, Louise, has also hit out at her nephew and Holly on social media. She fumed: “Yes. Adam is a born-again Christian. He’s not living by the tenets of Christianity is he? Where is ‘honour thy mother and thy father’ where is the forgiveness?”
Addressing Holly and Adam saying she had to wear a different dress for the event, Louise commented: “How can Adam and Holly ‘source’ sit there and say Caroline wasn’t invited because of the way my sister looks? She doesn’t suit the look Holly is looking for?! WTF body shaming a 60-year-old woman! Jesus Christ on a cracker!”
Holly and Adam are yet to comment on the family feud, despite attempts from the Mirror.
