<\/p>\nOlympic swimmer Adam Peaty faces harsh criticism from his own relatives, who have called him a “narcissist” following revelations that his mother Caroline has been excluded from his forthcoming marriage to Holly Ramsay.<\/p>\n
The three-time Olympic gold medallist’s family members claim the 30-year-old athlete has been transformed by wealth and celebrity status, suggesting he has lost touch with his roots.<\/p>\n
Relations between the swimmer and his family have deteriorated significantly, with one relative telling The Sun: “Adam has been changed by money, fame and fortune. <\/p>\n
He seems to have forgotten where he came from.” The family member, who receives Universal Credit, expressed frustration at being unable to afford the country house venues selected for wedding celebrations.<\/p>\n

The 59-year-old nursery manager was notably missing from Holly’s pre-wedding celebrations at Soho Farmhouse, which included Victoria Beckham, Tana Ramsay and Adam’s sister among the attendees. <\/p>\n
Instead, Caroline remained at home caring for Adam’s five-year-old son George during the weekend festivities.<\/p>\n
The situation has reportedly escalated to Caroline being prohibited from attending the couple’s Christmas ceremony at Bath Abbey. <\/p>\n
Sources indicate the conflict stems from Holly’s decision not to include her future mother-in-law in the hen party, despite Adam inviting Gordon Ramsay to his stag celebrations.<\/p>\n

Caroline has expressed her distress through social media posts featuring quotes about heartbreak. <\/p>\n
One recent post stated: “When you love someone, you protect them from the pain, you don’t become the cause of it,” which she captioned: “The ones I love are the people who hurt me the most.”<\/p>\n
Louise Williams, Adam’s aunt, launched a direct attack on Holly through Instagram, responding to the engagement announcement with sharp criticism. <\/p>\n
She wrote to the bride-to-be: “@hollyramsayy I’m so glad that you had a great hen do. As a bride, you deserve that. <\/p>\n
\nHowever, as a person you were divisive and hurtful towards a woman, who I have loved and continue to love deeply.”<\/p>\n
Williams highlighted the contrast in wedding preparations, pointing out that Holly had invited “your mum’s assistant, your sisters, your friends, my niece” whilst excluding “my sister, your future mother-in-law”. <\/p>\n
She noted that Caroline had “opened her home and heart to you” before concluding: “You have inflicted a hurt on my sister that will take a very long time to heal if ever.”<\/p>\n
She also claimed the swimmer is “ashamed” of his brothers, going as far as labelling him a “narcissist.”<\/p>\n

One family member stated: “We think he has treated Caroline appallingly. You can hear it in her voice. She’s heartbroken.”<\/p>\n
Sources close to the situation suggest the Peatys are not Gordon and Tana Ramsay’s “cup of tea”, with an insider telling MailOnline: “The Ramsays are rich and they like the nicer things in life because they can afford it. On the other hand, the Peatys are far less polished.”<\/p>\n
Caroline previously spoke about the sacrifices she made for Adam’s swimming career, including 4am starts and 40-minute drives to training. <\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Adam has credited Gordon Ramsay with helping him escape “three years of hell” following struggles with alcoholism and mental health issues.<\/p>\n
