Adam Peaty Addresses Family Rift, Cites Police Probe as Wedding Nears

Peaty says a police inquiry prevents him from sharing details.

Overview

  • In a social media statement, the Olympic swimmer called recent coverage “deeply hurtful,” said it was one-sided, and alleged some relatives encouraged the targeting of him, Holly Ramsay and his sister Bethany.
  • He said he cannot provide further information because of an ongoing police investigation into matters that he said arose before the latest public disputes.
  • Reporting says his brother, James Peaty, was arrested on suspicion of harassment and later released on conditional bail after police met Adam on his return from a Budapest stag trip.
  • Multiple outlets report that his mother, Caroline, has been excluded from pre-wedding events and the ceremony, with only his sister expected to attend from his immediate family.
  • The wedding is planned for late December at Bath Abbey with a reception at Kin House, and coverage continues to note Caroline’s public distress as well as her supportive exchanges with Adam’s ex-partner Eirianedd Munro.
