British diver Tom Daley has called on all Commonwealth countries to decriminalise homosexuality after winning gold at the Commonwealth Games in Australia.
Tom and his diving partner Dan Goodfellow won the synchronised 10m Platform competition at the Gold Coast tournament, and in the wake of the victory, Tom took the chance to highlight the fact that "37 of the competing nations criminalise being LGBT+".
"I feel so lucky to be able to be openly who I am without worry," he wrote on Twitter. "I hope one day every athlete from every nation in the Commonwealth will be free to compete openly as who they are too."
The diver, who married his partner Dustin Lance Black in May last year, also discussed the issue on Friday's edition of BBC 5 Live Breakfast.
"I feel truly lucky to be able to complete openly as who I am, without having to worry about any ramifications," he said. "For those 37 countries... I can't even imagine what it would be like growing up knowing that you're not on an equal playing field and are going to be judged for who you are.
"We need to talk about it; these issues need to be raised and sorted out.
