I have one friend - he knows who he is - who just loves British diver Tom Daley. With Daley's new announcement that he's gay, not bisexual, my friend DW must be in seventh heaven. Here are excerpts from The Bilerico Project:
Tom Daley, the cute 19-year-old British diver and reality television star who won the bronze medal in the 10-metre platform in the 2012 London Olympics, announced in December that he's "dating a guy and... couldn't be happier" but that he also "still fanc[ies] girls."But last night on the UK television show Celebrity Juice, Daley told the world that he does not identify as bisexual, but as gay. "I am a gay man now," Daley said.He went on to explain:
Hopefully, Daley's example and that of other recently out athletes will continue to inspire other athletes to come out of the closet. Meanwhile, DW, sweet dreams!"I came out on YouTube as I wanted to say what I wanted to say without anyone twisting it. I told my family before I told the world. I was terrified. I did not know what the reaction was going to be. I did it on YouTube because people were constantly digging and asking questions."
As to his relationship with Oscar-winning screenwriter Dustin Lance Black, Daley said things are "all good."
