Tom Daley says his son was behind his decision to make a comeback to compete at a fifth Olympic Games
Tom Daley has said his son is the main inspiration behind his return to compete at a fifth Olympic games. The 29-year-old took a two-year break from diving after he ended his long wait for an Olympic Gold during the delayed 2021 Tokyo Games. Daley claimed his first gold medal, after back-to-back bronze medals at London 2012 and Rio 2016, alongside his synchro partner Matty Lee.
I remember thinking it was an impossible dream to take two years out and get back in time to qualify and be ready to dive at an Olympics within a year seems kind of silly, but he said 'Papa I want to see you diving at the Olympics' and that was that.'Daley officially returned in December 2023 and won silver in February's World Championships alongside Williams.
