TOM DALEY AND DUSTIN LANCE BLACK

One is an Olympic medalist, the other is an award-winning screenwriter. Apparently, Daley (the Olympic medalist) made the first move, so to speak. And we guess that it is to his credit that he mustered the courage to do so despite being uncertain at the time about whether Dustin was even gay. It was mightily aggressive of him, to be sure, but it worked out! Well, we suppose he is sure now (that Dustin is gay, that is).

Happily, for the two of them, everything worked out smoothly—”immediately,” as Daley described. And despite their 20-year age difference, the relationship of this award-winning couple seems to have gone well so far without any hitches. Tom said of meeting Dustin: “I’d never felt the feeling of love, it happened so quickly, I was completely overwhelmed by it to the point I can’t get him out of my head all the time.”
