Holly Ramsay paid a sweet tribute to Olympian boyfriend Adam Peaty ahead of him winning silver in the 100m breast-stroke final in Paris on Sunday.
The daughter of TV chef Gordon, 24, watched as the 29-year-old came in joint-second to Italian Nicolo Martinenghi.
Taking to her Instagram Stories Holly shared a snap of her newly manicured nails that were painted with the athlete’s initials.
She also shared a photo of her ‘pool essentials’ which were a cuddly toy and Spiderman figurine, after being joined at Saturday’s semi-finals by Adam’s three-year-old son George.
Peaty, who almost quit the sport last year, had vowed to ‘give it everything’ to win gold at his third Olympic Games.

But he was beaten by just two hundredths of a second alongside Nick Fink who came in at the same time.
His arch-rival Qin Haiyang from China came seventh.
On Friday Holly praised her boyfriend of one year, calling him an amazing father and adding that she was thankful to have watched him in his competitions.
The swimmer has previously been candid about his battles with depression and alcoholism but is happier than ever since meeting Holly in 2023.
In the post shared on Instagram, Holly said: ‘It has been an absolute privilege to have watched you this last year. Your determination and dedication is unmatched.
‘Hours of training, team meetings, gym, physio and still you have been the best father to George & the best partner to me. Being able to watch so many training sessions & host team breakfasts has made me so thankful to be a part of your world.
‘I love you. Go out there and smash it. Enjoy it all, you deserve everything and more.
‘Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. – 1 Corinthians 16:13’.

Holly also shared her view of the Olympic pool
The athlete posed in full sports gear, including his official Paris Olympics hoodie and bags in one picture and in another Adam pouted at the camera in a baby blue Team GB bucket hat.
The influencer posted the message along with several photos including one of the pair posing in a mirror pouting with the daughter of Gordon Ramsey apparently showing off a possible engagement ring.
In another snap, the brunette beauty was seen leaning against a wall as she seemingly watched her boyfriend compete out of shot.
Holly also gave fans a glimpse behind the scenes of her and Adam’s life with candid team breakfast and road trip snaps.
The couple appear more loved up than ever and recently celebrated their one-year anniversary.
Holly shared ‘she hasn’t stopped smiling’ since she met the Olympic swimmer ‘365 days ago’.
The adorable couple were first rumoured to be dating in June 2023 and have been going from strength to strength ever since.
Adam recently revealed he endured ‘three years of hell’ after suffering from depression and alcoholism and splitting from his long-term girlfriend Eirianedd Munro – but has now rediscovered his passion for swimming.
He admitted he ‘didn’t want to see a pool again’ after being ‘broken’ by the sport, turning to drinking and partying as an escape.
When asked why he didn’t quit the sport all together when at his lowest he said: ‘I was within a hair of giving it all up. What was I going back for? Pride? It took a while to find the answer.
‘But I wanted to teach [my son] George and any other children I have in future that you don’t give up when things get hard or the world feels like it’s against you. You give up when the time is right. I can take losses, but I couldn’t take regret. Regret would eat any man inside out.’
In 2022 his three-year relationship with Eirianedd ended after he appeared as a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing – as did his eight-year unbeaten streak in the pool, and he took a mental health break after the Commonwealth Games.
The swimmer said he became very depressed and turned to alcohol to cope.
In a Men’s Health magazine interview he said: ‘The answers can’t be found in a nightclub, or some of the stuff that I’d been doing. It had to be found in true accountability, tough and deep conversations with people around me’.
It comes after Holly praised her ‘determined and dedicated’ boyfriend ahead of his race for third olympic gold

He later started dating Holly after meeting her while on the BBC show and still in a relationship, saying now his support network is ‘great’ and how it’s taken a long time to ‘get it right’.
Adam also revealed how Holly’s famous father Gordon helped pull him out of his ‘deep, dark hole’.
He told The Sunday Times the celebrity chef has emerged as a mentor and role model, who he looks up to for his ‘relentless pursuit’ and how he has worked ‘his way up to the upper echelons of his industry’.
Adam rediscovered his passion for swimming and in April qualified for the 2024 Paris Olympics after winning the British 100m men’s breaststroke title with his quickest time since 2021.
‘Gordon is a high performer. He worked his way up to the upper echelons of his industry and works in a place where there’s no bulls***’
‘I take a lot from that and from the professionalism he has every single day with a relentless pursuit.
‘So, when I see that, I’m like, “Yeah, why can’t I work like this? Why can’t I do this every single day? Why do I have to be so emotionally engaged with things?”
He added that watching Gordon operate in his job inspired him to change his own manner and approach to swimming.
