Gordon Ramsay has responded to the happy news that his daughter Holly is engaged to Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty.
Holly said her new fiancé was her 'best friend' as she confirmed the news in a lovely Instagram post.
She wrote: "I truly cannot put into words how I am feeling right now. I still remember how big my smile was the morning I got home from my first date with you.
“Thank you for letting the little girl inside of me feel loved, seen and happier than ever. I love you & I cannot wait to be your wife.

"I promise to always be there with you and George, I’m so greatful to be in his life and I cannot wait for more.
"Everything is better with you. Everything has been better since you. Here’s to forever."
Now dad Gordon has said: "Congratulations to you both! We're over the moon and enjoy this moment! Welcome to the family Adam Peaty."
Peaty made a post of his own where he described bride-to-be Holly as a 'gentle, caring and beautiful woman'.

He wrote: "You have been with me when I’ve been at my lowest and helped me understand myself to navigate my own darkness.
"You have also celebrated the highs which have been so many, as for the first time in my life, I’m happy with the man I’ve become.
"Your family have always treated me so generously with their time, emotion and trust. I can’t wait to be joined with them too.
"I’ve always believed that when two people are engaged and later married that we are no longer two people but we join as one and it’s the biggest privilege to share that with you."
It sounds like it's going to be a very happy marriage, and all seems well in the world of Ramsay.

The Olympic swimmer recently claimed a silver medal at the Paris 2024 games, rounding out his Olympic medal tally at six with equal numbers of silver and gold.
Peaty actually appeared in Strictly Come Dancing in the same season as his fiance's sister Tilly.
She got further than he did as Peaty and dance partner Katya Jones were the sixth couple to go, while Tilly Ramsay and Nikita Kuzmin were the ninth out of the competition.
It was the series that ended in victory for Rose Ayling-Ellis and Giovanni Pernice, with one of the couple's particularly notable dances to 'Symphony' cutting out the sound in a memorable TV moment.
