Victoria Beckham just can’t catch a break when it comes to family drama.
The 51-year-old fashion mogul and former Spice Girl has faced a turbulent year marked by her strained relationship with eldest son Brooklyn—and now, she’s found herself drawn into yet another emotional family feud. This time, it involves her longtime friend Holly Ramsay, who’s battling pre-wedding tensions with fiancé Adam Peaty’s family.
“Victoria and Holly share a special bond. Vic’s been a maternal figure to her for years,” an insider tells Heat. “Their relationship has deepened recently, especially as Holly’s faced more public scrutiny. Having endured her own media storms with David, Victoria’s been an anchor—offering advice on how to stay strong under pressure.”
Victoria has known 25-year-old Holly since childhood through her close friendship with chef Gordon Ramsay and his wife, Tana. Their friendship remains tight-knit, with Victoria recently joining Holly’s hen party at Soho Farmhouse, posting lively photos captioned, “Girls night!!!”
But behind the champagne and smiles, there’s chaos brewing. Sources say the upcoming December wedding has turned into a full-blown family feud. Most of Adam Peaty’s relatives have reportedly been cut from the guest list, leaving only his sister Bethany and her fiancé, Dan Rogerson—a former convict with drug-related offenses—to attend.
Adam’s mother, Caroline, hasn’t taken it quietly. She’s publicly vented her anger after being excluded from Holly’s celebrations, claiming she was “snubbed” because she might “stick out.” In an emotional interview, she accused the Ramsays of pulling her son away, saying, “I can’t help but feel he’s in Gordon’s clutches.”
The tension spilled online when Caroline shared a pointed Christmas message: “It wasn’t the presents, it was the presence of my parents who did everything they could to make the magic happen.”
As the drama continues, Holly has turned to Victoria for support. “Vic’s been Holly’s rock,” a source explains. “She’s encouraged her to tune out the noise—avoid the tabloids, step back from social media, and focus on love, not drama. Victoria told her to lean on her inner circle and not let anyone ruin what should be the happiest time of her life.”
The situation hits close to home for Victoria, whose ongoing estrangement from Brooklyn and his wife, Nicola Peltz, mirrors the rift between the Ramsays and the Peatys. With Holly’s wedding approaching, speculation is swirling that Brooklyn could attend—setting the stage for an emotionally charged reunion with his mother.
“The prospect of seeing Brooklyn again is overwhelming for Victoria,” the insider adds. “She’s anxious about how to handle it, and she fears that if he keeps his distance, it could reopen old wounds.”
Still, Victoria remains determined to put the past aside for Holly’s big day. “Both Victoria and David adore Holly,” the source concludes. “They’ve watched her grow up and can’t wait to see her walk down the aisle. No matter what’s happening behind the scenes, they want this day to be filled with love, not tension.”
