Adam Peaty’s sister, who was the only family member allowed to attend his wedding, has broken her silence on her mother's feud with the Ramsays.
Bethany Peaty, 32, was accused of 'betraying' her family when she pledged her allegiance to her brother, having attended sister-in-law Holly Ramsay's hen do and their wedding at Bath Abbey in December.
Now, Beth has shared her heartbreak over the ongoing rift, revealing she's been divided between loyalties towards her mother and Olympian brother.
While the tension shows no signs of easing between the sparring members, Beth told the Daily Mail that she has now made peace with her mother Caroline, 60, for the sake of her children.
Beth, a carer, who has an eight-year-old son and daughter, aged five, told the Daily Mail it has been a ‘very difficult time,' adding, ‘I’m caught right in the middle of the row.
‘But I’ve made up with mum really for the children. They adore her and she is a great grandma and a good mum.'

Beth, who is engaged to partner Daniel Rogerson, 37, said it was ‘very sad’ that Adam had banned their mother from the wedding, saying: ‘It was a shame and very sad she couldn’t go.'
She hinted she had tried to act as a go between the warring pair, but said she couldn’t help, noting 'we as Peatys are very strong minded people.’
Beth admitted that her head turned by all the glitz of glamour of a celebrity world, yet a family source claimed that she has since distanced herself from the Ramsays clan.
In response, Beth shared: ‘It’s a wonderful world, a very different one to the one we know.’
Of her new relatives - chef Gordon Ramsay, wife Tana and influencer daughter Holly - she said: ’They are a good family and made me feel very welcome.’
She added that she had ’no idea’ when she would become a bride and marry her fiancée, saying: ‘I don’t know when we are getting married - it won’t be on the Ramsay scale!'
Beth's comments come as a family source claimed that she had been 'a bit of a snake'.
They told the Daily Mail: ‘Beth had a glimpse into a different life and sold her soul by backing Adam to be part of it.
'She’s come running back to mum and they have reconciled.’
The mother-of-two had attended the Ramsays wedding ceremony as maid of honour, with Beth and Holly’s two sisters, policewoman Megan and aspiring chef Tilly, all wowing in floor-length red satin dresses.
While it may come as a shock that Adam and his sister have now apparently moved in different directions, given they seemed to have a close relationship, the source suggested they are not as friendly as seems and 'they were never close growing up'.
The insider added: ‘Also Beth holds a lot of resentment for Caroline being missing from her childhood when she was taking Adam on his swimming trips.'
Yet Beth put her differences with Caroline aside and the pair were able to reconcile in time for Mother's Day.
There has been no contact from Adam, who has not reached out to Caroline for four months.
Former nursery manager Caroline, 60, had been left heartbroken by the rift with both Adam and Beth, admitting it had been ‘very challenging emotionally’.
Yet she is now relieved that she and her daughter have reconciled after a difficult period during which she had remained a doting grandma to Beth’s children.
The insider continued: ‘It is a source of comfort to her. Beth has come back onside because she knows where her loyalties lie.
‘She has seen sense and has reconciled with her mum now the wedding is over and Adam is busy with his new life.'
