SWIPING through Tinder, Adam Peaty instantly fell head over heels with stunning art student Eirianedd Munro – and after a whirlwind romance, just two months later she was pregnant with their baby boy.
Fast forward to today and their son is five years old, but they are no longer together – and Eiri has almost completely disappeared from social media. Here, we look at what happened to the artist and – as Adam’s bitter feud with his own mum is laid bare – insiders tell us how she really feels about the situation and her ex’s extravagant upcoming nuptials.

We can reveal that Eiri, 27, is now living in Wales with her son George, surrounded by family. She lives with one of her sisters, who has become instrumental in his upbringing.
These days Eiri no longer posts online – except when it’s George’s birthday. Once a year she will return to praise her little boy, who she says has changed her life forever.
A pal told us: “Eiri is still an artist and lives a very normal life. It is full of love and happiness. It really is family first.
“She has George living with her and has done an incredible job at raising him. She’s an amazing mum. It’s a far cry from Adam’s life with Holly Ramsay, but she’s really happy.
“Eiri would never speak badly of Adam – he has provided for their son and helped ensure he has a very comfortable life. She is also a big fan of Holly.
“But she is shocked by everything that’s been going on.”
Eiri doesn’t want to be embroiled in any family row but she would be upset by this.

As the family erupted, we can reveal that Eiri is still very close to Caroline.
Our insider explained: “Caroline is of course still a big part of George’s life and spends lots of time with him.

But while the hen was in full swing, Caroline was at home in Staffordshire looking after George.
The source said: “Eiri doesn’t want to be embroiled in any family row but she would be upset by this.
“She and Caroline have a close bond and friendship, and she would offer her support.”
YOUNG LOVE TURNED SOUR
The world champion swimmer’s mum has previously told of her “sadness” over her son’s shock split from his girlfriend and mother of his baby son – revealing she was only told a few days before his public announcement.
Caroline said: “It is very sad but these things happen.
“We’re just around to support them both. Eiri is still part of our family, as is George.
“Everything will be done to help and support them all.”

Eiri was catapulted to fame overnight when she went Instagram official with gold medalist Adam on New Year’s Eve 2020.
She had no idea when they met that he was a successful swimmer, but she quickly leaned into life in public – often sharing titbits with followers online.
Three months later they announced they were expecting, admitting “it wasn’t planned”.
Adam, now 30, was away training when she broke the news to him and he recalls: “I got the call in Australia, with her crying. I was like, ‘OK, this is going to change my life forever’.”
Eiri also appeared aware of just how much their lives were about to change.
She said at the time: “It also promises to be the hardest, messiest and craziest so far. It’ll be filled with tears and laughter and sleepless nights and dirty nappies. A lot of dirty nappies.”
A friend close to Eiri revealed: “Eiri was really scared when she found out she was pregnant, she really worried about what people would think of her.
“Her biggest fear was that people thought she had done it for financial gain.”
Like Adam, Eiri is deeply religious and initially felt ashamed about falling pregnant.
She launched a YouTube channel and told her followers: “I worried about telling people. Pretty much everyone I know is religious so having a child outside of wedlock is not like it’s frowned upon, but because I’d grown up in a Christian household, I did feel very ashamed and very like guilty about it for the first few months.”

Eiri was an instant hit with viewers – pretty, funny and a famous boyfriend – a perfect combination to be an influencer.
But everything changed when Adam was approached to do Strictly Come Dancing and was paired with Katya Jones.
STRICTLY CHAOS
Just weeks into the competition viewers were left shocked when after their and their chemistry was the talk of the show.
At the time Eiri poked fun of it and made a TikTok to a trending sound of a whining baby, writing: “Watching your boyfriend almost kiss another woman on live TV… Finding out 10million people also watched it live.”
But ten months later – despite making light of any drama – the pair split and Adam’s statement appeared rather telling.
He wrote: “I could not ask for a greater mother for George and I am so grateful to Eiri for her amazing support over the last three years.
“Eiri and George, I’m sorry for letting you down.”
Eiri’s own post was also sombre as she shared: “This next chapter of my life is surely going to be a difficult one.”
Not long after, she announced she was quitting social media and told fans: “This account is tied to a life that has been and gone. I’m closing this chapter, and starting a new one.”
And she really has started a new chapter, far removed from Adam’s lavish one with Holly and her multi-millionaire family. Let’s hope she also gets her happy ending.
