Dame Kelly's joy at 'amazing' support as she comes out as gay

The middle-distance runner and double Olympic champion said: “The reaction has amazed me. I didn’t visualise such support from everyone.”

Dame Kelly, who chose Pride Month to announce her news after staying silent for 34 years, had admitted she suffered “dark times” when she wished she could have screamed it out but she felt she could not.

Boxer Nicola Adams, fellow athlete Denise Lewis, and This Morning’s Phillip Schofield were among the first to applaud her decision.
