Holly Ramsay has made her grand entrance for her wedding to Adam Peaty, an event that’s been overshadowed by a contentious family dispute that has deeply affected the Olympian’s relatives.
The 25-year-old bride radiated joy as she arrived at Bath Abbey, escorted by her famous father, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, who is 59.
Holly kept the details of her Christmas wedding dress a secret, opting to conceal it beneath a delicate embroidered lace cloak, while eager onlookers gathered to catch a glimpse of the festivities.
She wore a natural make-up look complemented by a simple updo and veil, teasing the crowd with only a brief view of her dress’s scalloped skirt peeking beneath a long train.
As she stepped out of the car for the much-anticipated ceremony, the radiant bride-to-be gave her father a kiss on the cheek before he led her through the throng of admirers.
Amid the bustling crowd, security personnel cleared a path for the father-daughter duo, with Gordon waving and wishing everyone a ‘Merry Christmas’ amidst the excitement.
Her bridesmaids, including her mother Tana Ramsay and younger sister, Tilly, were shortly ahead and stunned in red and green dresses in keeping with the Yuletide theme.
And while the big day hasn’t been short of family drama, the Ramsay’s A-list close friends, The Beckhams, arrived showing their support to the soon-to-be newlyweds.

The Beckhams and the Ramsays have been close family friends since the early 2000s, with the two clan striking a bond when they both relocated to the USA.
Among the star-studded guest list, is Sir David, 50, his wife, Victoria Beckham, 51, as well as their children, Romeo, 23, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14.
However, the famous brood aren’t short of their own family drama’s either, with eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham, 26, amid a rift between him and his father.
It comes as sources claim the family believe Brooklyn has blocked them in a move that appears to be a sign of his ‘complete estrangement’ from his family.
Today, both fashion designer Victoria and her daughter Harper stunned in glamorous floor-length gowns.
The 14-year-old black dress was coupled her outfit with a cropped black fluffy jacket and a matching clutch.
Meanwhile, Spice Girl Victoria put on a chic display sporting large sunglasses, a hard silver purse to complete her glamorous outfit for the big day.
Elsewhere, the Beckham men all cut a dapper figure sporting smart black suits topped off with bow ties and lengthy coats in grey and various shades of brown.
It comes as Peaty and Ramsey’s highly anticipated wedding has been embroiled in a family furious family feud, which has seen the Olympian’s family disinvited to the celebrations.

However earlier, it would have been hard to tell that Peaty, and his soon-to-be-wife have been at the centre of a toxic family row that has captured the nation.
The gold medalist arrived ahead of the ceremony appearing calm, cool and collected, wearing a smart black suit as he clung on to his five-year-old son, George’s hand.
Earlier this morning, he took a snap of his surroundings snapping the pool in the backdrop of a countryside sunrise with the caption, ‘Morning of our wedding.’
It appears Peaty may have been planning a quick dip to calm his nerves ahead of the lavish celebrations.
Meanwhile, at Kin House, the Wiltshire manor where the soon-to-be married couple’s reception is set to take place, security guards and dogs were spotted patrolling the grounds of the Georgian manor.
But 120 miles away, in Staffordshire, his mother Caroline, father Mark and wider family are sat at home ‘heartbroken’ as they will not be among the guests after they were reportedly barred from the wedding by the happy couple.
Caroline had reportedly planned to crash the wedding but has since decided against it explaining ‘It would be too sad’ and ‘ don’t want to spoil his big day.’

Her change of heart came after she’d previously insisted: ‘I will be there, and I will watch from the street.’
However, her husband Mark dissuaded her from crashing the wedding, telling her it would be ‘too upsetting’ to be there.
Instead, the Peatys remain at their home in Uttoxeter – the same home from which Caroline used to ferry her son to and from his countless training sessions and competitions, all those years ago.
And now wedding organisers put the finishing touches on the two brilliant rose flower arrangements outside Bath Abbey where her son will later be married to the love of his life and perhaps seal the point of no return for her relationship with him.
Hours before guests are even set to arrive at the ancient landmark, a handful of spectators have gathered by the blue rope that has been erected to catch the wedding of the year.
Due to be in attendance are the Ramsay clan and their close friends the Beckhams, though David, 50, and Victoria, 51, eldest son Brooklyn has snubbed the wedding due to their own ongoing family feud.

Earlier this week Adam shared a loved-up snap of him and Holly holding hands as he wished his followers a ‘Merry Christmas’
Six weeks ago, Caroline revealed her hurt and bewilderment in the wake of an extraordinary family bust-up that had exploded into the public arena after Holly’s very glossy hen-do, to which she was not invited.
Photographs of the glamorous gathering, posted on Instagram, notably included the bride-to-be, her family and friends, Victoria Beckham, Adam’s sister Bethany, but not Caroline.
She was at home, looking after Adam’s son, George, five, from his previous relationship.
