British swimmer Dan Jervis has said "I look in the mirror and I like who I am" after publicly coming out as gay.
Next month Jervis, 26, will compete in his third Commonwealth Games having been selected in the Welsh squad. The Neath-born star won silver in the 1500 metre freestyle race in the last Games in Australia four years ago, and also took bronze in Glasgow in 2014.
He also reached the 1500m final on his Olympic debut in Tokyo last year, finishing fifth, but his latest significant career moment has come outside of the pool - bravely going public about his sexuality just a month before he competes in Birmingham.
