Helen Glover took a break from her career to start her family, but now she's returning for the 2024 Olympics. We look at who her husband is and the details of her family life, ahead of the big comeback.

Helen Glover retired from rowing in 2016 to start her family, having won gold at both London 2012 and in Rio four years later. Then, after only six months of serious training, she became the first mother to row for GB at the Olympics at Tokyo 2020, placing fourth  with her rowing partner Polly Swann. Now, Helen Glover has announced another surprise comeback for Paris 2024, and she plans to make history as the first British mother of three children to reach an Olympic podium.
