Tom Daley reveals the ‘shame’ of being advised to HIDE his relationship with husband Dustin Lance Black – as he opens up on his eating disorder

Five-time Olympic medallist Tom Daley has revealed that he was advised to try and hide his sexuality by a former management team in the early years of his diving career.

 

Daley, who retired from the sport following the Paris Games last year, is the centre of Warner Bros. Discovery’s new feature documentary, ‘Tom Daley: 1.6 Seconds’, which is set to be released on June 1.

The 90-minute movie takes you back to the start of the now 31-year-old’s career, before navigating through the highs and lows of his powerful story inside and outside of the pool.

 

As the documentary tackles a tough period during Daley’s life following the 2012 Olympics, it delves into when he first met his now husband, Dustin Lance Black, an Academy Award-winning screenwriter, back in 2013.

 

The four-time world champion had not revealed that he was gay to the public when he first met Black, and in the documentary, he tells of how professionals closest to him tried to dissuade him from presenting as who he really was.

 

Daley said: ‘They [his management team] said to “be careful being photographed with Lance, he is a big LGBT activist. You don’t want people thinking you are gay.”.
