Tom Daley's new video soaking in a bathtub absolutely deserves a gold medal
The Olympic diver is really making us want to take a bath right now.
Olympic diving champion Tom Daley is fresh out of the bath in his new ad for *checks notes* British Gas.
He posted an advert on social media with some behind-the-scenes videos of him sitting in a bathtub.
"Nothing like taking a little soak in the bath," Daley says in the video, "with the whole film crew watching you." And in the full ad, Daley whips off his towel to reveal a speedo.
We're not exactly a potential customer for British Gas, but we're certainly enjoying the view. Daley's post reads:
"There’s nothing worse than a busted boiler throwing off your whole day! @BritishGas commits to being with you the same day if you have no heating or hot water. Just contact them by 11am, even if you’re not a customer, they’ll sort you out!"
The out athlete won his fifth Olympic medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics earlier this summer then promptly announced his retirement from competitive diving.
And he also knits!
Daley went viral earlier this summer for his knitting skills while in the Olympics audience, a skill he picked up in 2020. It even translated into merch for a Malibu Rum "Don't Drink and Drive" campaign he did in August — and we love to see it.
