Tom DaleyandMatty Leeare the ultimate friendship goals!
“He surprised me with this Olympic ring, which is something really cool and special because it’s the exact same mold of his ring that he got years and years ago after his first Olympics,” Lee told the outlet. “So regardless of how we did, he still had a little surprise he brought from England. It’s so, so special that he got me that.”
In avideoposted to his YouTube page on Tuesday, Daley documented the pair’s excitement after their Olympic feat, as he and Lee also showed off their matching rings. “We have matching ones,” Daley said in the clip, and playfully called Lee his “work husband.”
Daley also showed off the moment he bestowed the gift to his diving partner while they were spending time together in the Olympic village.

“We couldn’t put a foot wrong in that competition if we were going to win it,” Daley continued to tell reporters with Lee standing beside him. (China’s Cao Yuan and Chen Aisen won silver and Aleksandr Bondar and Viktor Minibaev, of Russia, earned bronze.)
“I think this competition, we both visualized us winning and we believed that we could win. And every day, like laying in bed every day, I would visualize my dive over and over and over and over again with no mistakes,” Daley said, “and it played out exactly how we had visualized it every single day.”
