Holly Ramsay and her family were out in force in Bath just days before her wedding to Olympian Adam Peaty in the city.
Celebrity chef Gordon and wife Tana stepped out with their brood of children in the Somerset city en masse on Monday in a show of support for Holly’s nuptials as an ongoing row with her in-laws threatens to overshadow the Christmas event.
The couple will exchange vows at Bath’s historic Abbey Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, before embarking on festive drinks later this month.
Gordon, Tana and their daughter Tilly, 24, held hands and walked in line as they left the swanky Robun Japanese sushi restaurant and cocktail bar.
Bride-to-be Holly, 25, was dressed in a chic black look as she left holding the hand of Adam’s son George, five, who he shares with ex-girlfriend Eirianedd Munro.
Hot on their heels was her fiancé Olympic gold medal-winning swimmer Adam, also dressed in black, following close behind.

Holly was putting her woes aside as she enjoyed family time with her beloved clan
Fellow diners at Robun, where Robbie Williams recently dined following a one-off gig at Bath’s Royal Crescent, spoke of the happy couple, who are to marry after Christmas at Bath Abbey, being ‘inseparable’.
One said: ‘They were all over each other, giggling and fooling about. Whatever problems there may be in the family, they certainly weren’t showing it’.
Robun restaurant in Bath is famous for its black cod in miso sauce for £27 and its Wagyu ribeye with Ted Namjin, truffle teriyaki and Japanese pepper sauce which comes in at £49.
The restaurant also serves single shots of 12 year old malt Yamazaki Japanese whisky for £50. An insider said Gordon’s bill ran to many hundreds of pounds.
The family got into waiting chauffeur-driven Range Rovers after their one hour and 20 minute sushi meal and drove in the direction of their London home.
Gordon and his brood had been in the Roman city of Bath all day to put the finishing touches to Holly’s wedding and, it is thought, meet female Revd Chantal Mason, serving as Acting Rector of Bath Abbey.
Before joining Bath Abbey, Revd Mason was the Lazenby Chaplain and coordinated a multifaith chaplaincy team at the University of Exeter from 2015 to 2018.
The Ramsays are understood to know her because Gordon’s son Jack and daughter Holly, who are both 25, both attended Exeter University from 2018 onwards.
The couple have suffered a fall-out with Adam’s family, including mum Caroline (pictured, centre) who has been barred from the service following an increasingly toxic and inconveniently public row that began in November

A few hours before they arrived at Robun, Gordon was also spotted having ‘a late afternoon tea’ at The Griffin Inn just around the corner from Bath’s famous Theatre Royal.
Notably absent was Adam’s family. The sportsman left jaws dropping last month when it was revealed he had uninvited his relatives from his wedding, after his mother Caroline was not invited to Holly’s swanky hen do.
The astonishing family feud kicked off after news arose that Adam’s mother was not invited to Holly’s hen do, where she was joined by her mum Tana, Adam’s sister Bethany and Victoria Beckham at Soho Farmhouse.
In the wake of the snub, public woes unravelled, with shock claims on each side about the fallout – including allegations that Holly and Adam made Caroline chose a different outfit for the wedding as they did not like her choice.
It’s now been reported that tensions between the two families began during Holly and Adam’s engagement party, which was filmed for Gordon’s upcoming Netflix documentary.

Gordon was filmed over nine months as he opened five new restaurants in London, alongside juggling his personal life.
The engagement party, which took place last December, will see Holly and Adam with his family during happier times, before their toxic fallout occurred and he disinvited all but one of his relatives from the wedding.
But according to The Sun, the cracks were already starting to show at the time, with Caroline having several grievances at the party.
A source told the publication: ‘Adam’s family were at the engagement party, when relations were much better. Things went downhill from there.
‘His mum was unhappy some of the family weren’t there and confronted Gordon at the event. Guests were made to sign non-disclosure agreements and hand in phones as the party was filmed.’

It was also revealed Adam’s sister Bethany is the only member of his side who appears to have survived the bitter family fallout ahead of his wedding.
The hen do snub sparked a huge response from the Peaty family, with Adam’s aunt Louise blasting her nephew and his fiancée, Holly, in a series of Instagram comments.
She later claimed her sister Caroline wasn’t invited to their wedding due to her appearance and not having the correct ‘look’.
But one member of Adam’s side of the family appears to have survived the feud, his sister Bethany – who did make the cut for Holly’s picture-perfect Cotswolds hen do.

The Sun has reported that the real reason Bethany made the cut is that she ‘fits in’ to the Ramsays’ glamorous world because ‘she’s blonde and pretty’.
While they claim that Bethany herself has had her head turned by the celebrity lifestyle, and has been asked to be one of Holly’s bridesmaids.
A friend close to the family told the publication: ‘Bethany has always been very close to Adam and she is really taken with the celebrity lifestyle, she’s had her head turned by all the glitz and glamour.
‘She was over the moon to be at the hen party, hanging out with Victoria Beckham and couldn’t wait to tell all her friends about it. She really fits in with the glam world – she’s blonde and very pretty.’
