Tom Daley is the world’s biggest name in diving and one of Great Britain’s most successful sportspeople of all time.
Becoming European Champion by winning his first diving gold at the age of 13, the youngest person to ever do so, Tom Daley went on to win five Olympic medals across five Olympics, representing Team GB at the 2008, 2012, 2016, 2020 and most recently the 2024 Paris Games. An Olympic gold medallist and a multi-World Champion, Tom Daley is a household name and national treasure with global appeal outside of just his sport.
When Tom won his first gold at Tokyo 2020, images of him knitting poolside circulated the globe, with his dedicated knitting Instagram account, @Madewithlovebytomdaley gaining a million followers overnight. Dubbed the ‘Tom Daley effect,’ by The Guardian, all eyes were on what he would knit at Paris 2024 as he brings a whole new audience to the craft.
An LGBTQ+ activist, Tom has used his platform to propel the conversation around LGBTQ+ rights. From fundraising initiatives for LGBTQ+ charities to wearing Pride badges as he stepped onto the podium in countries where it’s illegal to be gay, the Commonwealth Games in 2022 saw Tom appeal to the Commonwealth Heads of Governments to better their LGBTQ+ laws as he marched in the opening ceremony carrying a Progress Pride Flag.
A multi-Sunday Times best-selling author, founder of knitting brand bytomdaley.com, three-time BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year winner and an OBE recipient, Tom Daley lives in LA with his husband Dustin Lance Black and their sons Robbie and Phoenix.
