Tom Daley Recounts Coming Out to his Grandparents in his Memoir

Poofter!

Grandad Dink . . .

ENOUGH!!

No one cares about Tom Daley, or his old grandfather/lover Dustin Lance Black.

I would have blamed too many water collisions to the brain for my grandsons dubious choice in life partnership.

"My grandfather, my lover. The Tom Daley Story."

Dustin Lance Black has a long HORSE FACE.

I haven’t told my grandparents but I didn’t feel obligated to “come out” to everyone. I couldn’t give a fuck what my grandparents or any of my relatives think.

Did everyone here “come out” to their grandparents and other relatives?

Being gay to me wasn’t like AIDS where you’ve got to go down a list of people to notify.

He writes the same way he talks.

Also, this is this 27 year old's second memoir. Has he mistaken himself for someone interesting? Literally the only thing anyone cares about - including his husband - is his body.

[quote]Lance, he’s a nice young man

Somehow I'm guessing even a grandparent didn't describe DLB as "young".

I don’t mean this disrespectfully, but did anyone actually ever believe that Tom Daley was straight?

I'm so glad that part of every young gay man's journey of life is publishing the intimate details of how other people, in their ignorance or age or expectation, didn't give him what he wanted. Or did they, since he is spreading ketchup of his private life and serving it up for fame and profit?

All in the name of those young gay people hesitant to come out to family members, of course.

Such a gay leader.

Will it be serialised in Tom and Dustin's newspaper of choice when it comes to exclusives - the Sun? That well known supporter of gay rights?

Trying to make that coin. I do wonder what he will do now. I guess every commonwealth and Olympic Games? But that's two months work over 4 years. Coaching I guess?

It wasn't that we were upset you are gay, dear. We just wanted you to land someone better looking.

Or someone who was not a petal file pervert. Imagine your teenage grandson dating some 40 year old man who preyed on this impressionable teen. Teenagers’ brains aren’t even fully developed yet and you have this grandpa trying to groom him to be his teenage bride.

And he'd lost his (domineering and controlling) dad just a couple of years before.

That said, you only need to listen to Tom to know his brain has still not fully developed. And I'm sure DLB wouldn't have it any other way.

I'll bet they smelled funny and spoke with a peculiar accent.

Horse DLB.

[quote] [quote] Somehow I'm guessing even a grandparent didn't describe DLB as "young".

It's not the age but rather the spirit and kick that count.

Interesting fact, but not widely known.

DLB was Grandpa Dink’s kindergarten teacher.

[quote] you only need to listen to Tom to know his brain has still not fully developed.

What does brain development matter if, well, other regions are more fully fleshed out so to speak.

But he still fancies girls! Give them some false hope that he just hasn't found the right girl yet...Does either of his biographies go into any detail about supposed girlfriends and if he ever fucked a girl? It wouldn't surprise me if he never lost his virginity to a girl - he has said before that his training schedule never really allowed him to have a social life and I just can't see him as some pussyhound....

Oh darling, there was no need for you to 'come out' or whatever you boys call it these days. I knew from the time I pulled the snickerdoodles out of the oven when you were four. You're a cookie sniffer and always have been!

[quote] But he still fancies girls! Give them some false hope that he just hasn't found the right girl yet...Does either of his biographies go into any detail about supposed girlfriends and if he ever fucked a girl? It wouldn't surprise me if he never lost his virginity to a girl

Why do gays have to lose their virginities to girls? It’s not the ‘60s anymore.

R26 That poster was making reference to the fact that until this year Tom kept insisting he was bi and that he was always checking out girls, etc

His grandfather started to *cry*? It's so hard for me to understand that kind of reaction.

[quote] until this year Tom kept insisting he was bi

So he’s not bi anymore? He’s the classic case of Bi now, gay later?

Was their problem Tom being gay, or was it understandably a problem with him being with Lance? I too would have referred to a relationship between DLB and a human being as not natural.

R29 Yeah, after he won his medal in Tokyo he finally said he was a gay man, rather than all the bullshit he was spouting before.

r31 No, he goes between saying he is gay and bi. I remember years ago he got an attitude award and said 'as a gay man' etc. Then years later, like others have said, talking about how he is still bi despite being with Lance. He constantly says he is gay, then bi.

What the fuck is he wearing?

Poor Tom. He is really only ever interesting when he’s wearing a speedo.

Tom certainly has grandfather issues. That’s why he married one.

Tom's life isn't as interesting as he thinks.

.,.,

Jesus. Had the grandparents met him? He didn’t need to ‘come out’ to anyone who had met him.

Oh i feel sorry for the grandparents. They obviously have failing eyesights. Or they would see those purses falling out from their favorite grandchild’s mouth whenever he talks.

Such an English conversation. No one says what they really mean, and no one understands what has been said.

Imagine the Dutch version: "Lance and I are fucking." / "Well he's almost our age but your Dad is dead. Apparently had more than one hole to fill." / "You don't accept us." / "Actually, we don't care, Opa is crying because you can do much better."

He is possibly the gayest looking person ever.

He’s the gayest acting person, ever. How could the grandparents not know?

He’s queer now R32 which could mean fucking anything

No longer content with just having them drop out his mouth whenever he speaks, he's now taken to carrying a purse.

His style is really poor, I get the feeling he doesn't really have any friends, just teammates. So no-one to tell him that something doesn't work for him.

R44 I hope LV loaned him that hideous outfit and he didn’t buy it. Yeah, I get the impression he doesn’t really have many friends too. The ghoulish husband probably scares them off one way or another.

I appreciate that he marches to the beat of his own drum.

Why did he marry such an old man? Something isn’t right.

[quote] Why did he marry such an old man?

He is seeking the love and approval that crying Grandad Dink didn't provide.

He should have started referring to his grandmother as grandpa's cum receptacle and the other fun ways we used to turn the tables on straight bigots prior to marriage equality.

"FFS, we knew he was GAY!"

"It was the whole "I am a submissive faggot bottom who needs to serve Alpha men" that shook us a little..."

"Why are you dating someone almost our age?"

"You like horses don't you?"

[quote] I caught sight of Grandad in the corner, who was starting to cry.

Grandad had always thought that "In Bruges" should have won the Academy Award over "Milk".

His outfit at LV 22' was hideous.

On second thought, that honour goes to Cody Fern.

Jesus fucking wept.

Gay face

His then boyfriend was older than his dad was when he died. I don’t excuse their homophobia, but they were right to be concerned about their grandson dating a creeper.

That boy was gay from space the day he was born.

LMAO…the guy in the red coat and pink boots is captioned as Chloe Bailey. I had heard of her, but was initially shocked to see what she looks like…until Google told me that’s not her.

r59 It's Cody Fern. Dude who played the antichrist in American Horror Story.

Tom’s Mum allegedly never suspected R58

Especially when the old creeper was dating a TEENAGER!!! That’s not dating, that’s preying and grooming. Any parent and grandparent would be concerned and call the cops.
