Adam Ramsay-Peaty broke down in tears after being forced to settle for a bronze medal in the men’s 100 metres breaststroke final at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. The 31-year-old was pipped by Australia’s Sam Williamson and 18-year-old Filip Nowacki of Jersey in a race he had dominated for eight years before shockingly finishing out of the medals in Birmingham four years ago. Since the 2022 Games, Ramsay-Peaty has taken time out to protect his mental health and also endured a high-profile family schism following his marriage to Holly Ramsay, daughter of the celebrity chef Gordon, in December. In an interview after his defeat, Adam acknowledged the family feud and said the fallout “has taken its toll”. “It's hard because I know how hard I've worked,' he cried. 'I know the s*** I've been through, which is no fault of my own. It does take a toll.”

Adam Ramsay-Peaty has debuted his new name on his swimming cap at the Commonwealth Games as he hopes his new moniker will bring him luck in Glasgow.

Adam Peaty is reportedly fearing yet more family backlash as the feud rumbles on months after he failed to invite his parents to his wedding to Holly Ramsay
