Olympic diver Tom Daley has revealed that he is gay and in a committed relationship with a man in an emotional video posted to his YouTube account on Monday (December 2nd).
The bronze medalist came out as gay despite admitting that he had always wanted to keep certain aspects of his life private, but said that he felt it was “right” to be honest with his fans.
Daley said that some members of his family had “mixed” feelings regarding him being gay, with many telling him that he should keep his sexuality a secret to avoid negative attention. However, the 19-year-old said that the majority of his friends and family had been supportive of his decision to post the video.
