Tom Daley: Olympic champion, British diver and public figure

Tom Daley is one of Britain’s best-known divers. He burst onto the world stage as a teenager and later became an Olympic gold medallist. People follow him not just for his diving, but for his honest voice on mental health, his family life, and his work as an LGBTQ+ advocate.

Quick career snapshot

Tom started competing internationally as a very young teen and has represented Great Britain at multiple Olympics. He reached the top of the sport at Tokyo 2020 where he took gold with his synchro partner. Across World and European Championships he’s collected several medals and has stayed near the elite level for well over a decade. That kind of longevity tells you he’s disciplined, adaptable and focused under pressure.

What makes Daley exciting to watch is how he mixes power and grace on the platform. His dives are precise but also look effortless when they hit. Coaches and fans often point to his ability to stay calm before big dives — a skill he’s talked about openly when describing competition nerves.

Life off the board and how he connects with fans

Off the pool deck, Tom is very public. He married filmmaker Dustin Lance Black and they share family life that Tom often shows on social channels. He speaks up about mental health and LGBTQ+ rights. That makes him more than an athlete to many people — he’s a voice and a role model.

If you want regular updates, follow his official accounts on Instagram, X and YouTube. He posts training clips, behind-the-scenes videos and personal updates. Broadcasters covering major diving events and the Olympics will carry his competitive meets; check your national sports channels and official Olympic streaming platforms for live coverage.
