Tom Daley has secured the full set of Olympic medals, after winning silver in the diving synchro 10m platform competition at Paris 2024.

His husband, Dustin Lance Black, sons Robbie and Phoenix, other family members and friends were all in the Aquatics Centre Monday to cheer for him and Team GB dive partner Noah Williams.

Daley — who carried his Pride rainbow towel between dives — and Williams finished second behind the Chinese pair of Yang Hao and Lian Junjie, just as they had at the World Championships in Doha five months previously.

Daley, 30, was the reigning Olympic champion in the event and had effectively retired after Tokyo, but decided to make a comeback and was paired with 24-year-old Williams due to Matty Lee missing out through injury.

The British duo were neck and neck with Canada in the opening rounds, but moved ahead with a strong third dive and were consistent thereafter.

At the start of the medal ceremony, Daley acknowledged the support of Black and their sons, blowing kisses towards them in the stands.

“My husband has really been there, he’s taken the kids allowing me to travel when I’ve needed to,” Daley told BBC Sport afterwards. “A happy athlete is a successful one.”

On six-year-old Robbie, he added: “Doing it in front of my son who asked me to come back is so special. I hope he’ll remember some of it.”

“It completes the set, I now have one of every color!” he said, pointing to his silver medal. He has three bronzes and a gold from his previous Olympics.

Daley is not competing in the individual 10m platform competition in Paris — but he could yet decide to continue on to Los Angeles 2028.

Asked if he was still contemplating a sixth Games, he replied: “I don’t know. Right now, I want to enjoy today and then we’ll see what the future holds.

“But most importantly, I just want to go and squish my little ones.”

Daley’s medal brings Team LGBTQ’s haul in Paris so far to three, following Lauren Scruggs’ silver in women’s fencing foil silver and Amandine Buchard’s judo bronze on Sunday.

Germany’s Timo Barthel and his dive partner Jaden Eikermann finished seventh out of eight teams.
