One of Britain's most well-known Olympic champions, Dame Kelly Holmes, on Sunday said that she was relieved to come out as gay after having hidden her sexuality for years. The 52-year-old two-time gold medallist athlete also revealed how she struggled with her mental health as she had to keep several same-sex relationships she had during her time in the Women's Royal Army Corps secret, for fear of being court marshalled.
