Adam Peaty’s mother, Caroline, learned about his and Holly Ramsay’s pregnancy through a formal text message. The Olympic swimmer has distanced himself from his parents and excluded them from his upcoming wedding. When Holly and Adam shared their pregnancy news, it was conveyed to Adam’s family, including his mother, via a simple text message. Holly and Adam are anticipating their first child together, who will be a younger sibling to Adam’s five-year-old son, George, from a previous relationship with Eirianedd ‘Eiri’ Munro.

Caroline expressed her happiness for the couple upon hearing the news of the impending arrival. However, reports suggest that the divide between Adam and his family is irreparable. Caroline, who was away at the time of the announcement, received a concise text message about the news as it was being shared on social media by Holly. The family reportedly did not have a celebratory gathering or a phone call, just a brief message.

In a separate incident last year, Caroline voiced concerns about feeling excluded from Adam’s life, especially following his marriage to Holly. Despite the strained relationship, she shared her enduring love for her son and wished him a happy life. Holly and Adam recently revealed their pregnancy on Instagram, with Holly joyfully announcing the expected arrival of their baby girl in December 2026.

Family and friends, including Gordon Ramsay, Victoria Beckham, Romeo Beckham, and Neil Jones, extended their congratulations to the expectant couple on social media. Gordon Ramsay expressed his excitement at becoming a grandfather, particularly around the upcoming Christmas season. The warm wishes poured in from various well-wishers, reflecting the joy surrounding Holly and Adam’s pregnancy announcement.
