Adam Peaty's brother shares pointed snap with 'hidden meaning' as family didn't attend wedding

Adam Peaty married Holly Ramsay yesterday amid a family feud

Adam Peaty’s brother, James, is said to have shared a pointed photo with a ‘hidden meaning’.

This comes as the Olympian married Holly Ramsay in Bath yesterday (27 December) amid an ongoing family feud.

Hours before the celebrity-studded ceremony, a ‘bombshell’ interview with Adam’s mum, Caroline, was published, confirming much of his family would not be attending.

Only his sister, Bethany, seemed to be in attendance as one of Holly’s bridesmaids as his aunt allegedly sent a heartbreaking text beforehand.

It’s said the swimmer’s dad, Mark, was invited alongside the likes of David and Victoria Beckham and their kids, but Caroline said they would instead be staying home in Staffordshire and perhaps go for a drive around the countryside.

Meanwhile, James appeared to show support for his ‘hurt’ mum.

The estranged brother reportedly posted an old photo of him and Caroline on his Instagram Stories, following the wedding.

But it seemed pretty pointed as it appeared to have been taken outside Bath Abbey – the prestigious venue for Adam and Holly’s wedding ceremony.

While it was reportedly swiftly deleted after being posted, it was clocked as a bit of a dig. Although, it has been inferred that the quick deleting of it shows some regret over their feud.

The image was taken on a different occasion and shows the pair very dressed up with the text ‘Merry Christmas’ written above.

Yet the key part of this post seems to be James’ song of choice – a remix of ‘Speak Softly, Love’. The track features in the famed Mafia film, The Godfather, which sees the son of big boss Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) meeting an ‘outsider’, Kay Adams (Diane Keaton). It seems like this could be some kind of hidden message to his brother, but it is unconfirmed.

James was previously arrested for allegedly sending threatening messages to Adam during his stag do, having been held at home in November and bailed as his dad said while ‘brothers fight’ it had ‘got out of hand’.

Caroline told the Daily Mail that their family is ‘broken’ and that it’s ‘as if they have cut my heart out’.

While she claimed Adam and Holly ‘don’t understand that family is the foundation to everything’, she is ‘so happy’ to see her son ‘genuinely in love’

“I’ve not done this to ruin their wedding. It’s their wedding, yes, it’s a happy day – but it needs to be said,” she added.

“They are both still loved, there is nothing I won’t forgive, and I want them to have the best day.”

LADbible contacted representatives for Peaty for comment.
