A wedding moment that struck a chord
Gordon Ramsay’s speech at the wedding of his daughter Holly to Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty proved to be one of the most emotional moments of the day, according to his youngest daughter, Tilly. Speaking on ITV’s This Morning, Tilly said the address left guests visibly moved.
The couple married at Bath Abbey on December 27, with the ceremony attended by friends, family and a number of well-known faces, including David and Victoria Beckham.
Tilly Ramsay on helping with the speech
Tilly, who served as one of the maids of honour, said she sat with her father on Christmas Eve as he went through the speech line by line. She recalled that no changes were needed, describing it as heartfelt and perfectly judged.
She said the day itself was emotional but joyful, adding that it was special to see her sister and Peaty so happy.
A father’s perspective
Ramsay later reflected on the moment himself, admitting he struggled to keep his composure. He said that as a father of three daughters, the experience was overwhelming, but felt the speech landed exactly as it should have.
He added that delivering such a speech required warmth and honesty, calling it a challenging but meaningful moment.
Personal touches at the reception
After the ceremony, Holly changed into her mother’s wedding dress from 1996 for the evening reception at Kin House, entering the room to Abba’s Take A Chance On Me. Ramsay said he was surprised she wore the dress for much of the night, joking about the number of outfit changes.
Holly later told Vogue that her bridal look was inspired by Grace Kelly and the Princess of Wales. She carried a bouquet of white ranunculus and was accompanied by her sisters Megan and Tilly, along with Peaty’s sister Bethany. The bridesmaids wore red silk maxi dresses designed by family friend Victoria Beckham.
Life after the ceremony
The couple announced their engagement in September 2024 after Peaty proposed during a holiday in Crete. Since the wedding, both have updated their Instagram usernames to reflect their married names, with Peaty becoming @AdamRamsayPeaty and Holly changing hers to @HollyRamsayPeaty.
The singer jokingly texted Clairo saying, "Let's f**k her up," sparking an online frenzy
Why Charli XCX jokingly declared war on Peppa Pig after one viral comment
Highlights
What started as a playful celebrity game has turned into one of the internet's most unexpected viral moments, with Charli XCX jokingly threatening to "f**k up" Peppa Pig after the beloved cartoon character appeared to dismiss singer Clairo.
The exchange quickly spread across social media, drawing reactions from fans and fellow musicians, while turning an unlikely clash between a pop star and a fictional children's character into a trending talking point.
Peppa Pig's viral remark sparked the joke
The playful exchange began during Peppa Pig's appearance in Pitchfork's Over/Under game, where the animated character rated a selection of music artists.
While expressing admiration for acts including PinkPantheress and The Beatles, Peppa responded to Clairo by saying, "I don't know her," a line widely recognised as a reference to Mariah Carey's famous response when asked about Jennifer Lopez.
The remark, accompanied by a knowing glance at the camera, quickly gained traction online.
Charli XCX rushed to Clairo's defence
After seeing the clip, Charli XCX privately messaged Clairo, writing, "Let's f**k her up," alongside a screenshot of the viral post.
Clairo later shared the exchange on social media, prompting thousands of reactions from fans, many of whom responded with pig and bacon-themed jokes.
PinkPantheress, whom Peppa had praised in the original video, also joined the conversation, posting a message supporting Clairo.
As the exchange continued, Clairo responded to the growing attention with humour, replying to posts before eventually telling followers, "ok that's enoughhhhh lolllllllllll."
Some fans joked that the viral moment was the perfect opportunity for the singer to announce new music, though Clairo replied that she did not have anything ready to share.
Her most recent album, Charm, was released in 2024, with its accompanying tour concluding in 2025.
Charli XCX keeps her focus on new music
While the online joke continued to gather momentum, Charli XCX did not publicly add to the exchange.
Instead, the singer has been focusing on promoting her upcoming album, Music, Fashion, Film, which is scheduled for release on July 24.
Although fans speculated that one of the track titles could be a playful nod to the viral exchange, there has been no indication that the album references the light-hearted social media moment.
