Gordon Ramsay excited yet “petrified” as daughter Holly and Adam Peaty announce baby
Chef Gordon Ramsay's 26‑year‑old daughter Holly Ramsay‑Peaty and Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty, 31, announced on Instagram that they are expecting their first child together, due in December 2026. The couple, who married at Bath Abbey in December 2025, said the baby will be a girl and a half‑sibling to Peaty’s five‑year‑old son George from a previous relationship. Gordon Ramsay replied to the post, saying he will be “a very over‑excited Grandad especially this Christmas” but also confessed he is “secretly petrified” about becoming a grandparent for the first time. The announcement resurfaced a long‑running family feud: Adam’s mother Caroline, who remains estranged from her son, learned of the pregnancy only via a brief, formal text message while on holiday. Sources said the rift between Adam and his parents is “beyond healing” and that no phone call or gathering took place to share the news. Ramsay dismissed earlier accusations that he had bullied Peaty’s family, calling them “absolute nonsense”. The story has drawn congratulations from other celebrities, including Victoria Beckham and the Beckham children.
