As a triple Olympic gold medallist and European Championship swimmer, Tom Dean is no stranger to hard work, so the Team GB athlete will likely have no issue with long training hours in the dance studio. 

The 24-year-old is taking part in this year's series of Strictly Come Dancing alongside his professional partner Nadiya Bychkova and the duo got off to a decent start with a Tango that impressed the crowd and scored 23 from the judges.

But when Tom and Nadiya aren't putting in the hours for rehearsals, Tom can be found at his home in Maidenhead.

Family garden

The swimmer also shared this photo from the rear garden of his family home and it's beautiful. 

The garden is generous in size and has a large patio perfect for hosting parties like they are in this snap.

Tom was the first contestant to be announced on this year's Strictly Come Dancing.

Sharing his excitement about joining the line-up, he said: "Naturally you want to take a break after you've had a full Olympic cycle and the opportunity arose. I thought it would be really exciting to try something a bit different. I'll be doing that and straight back into training after it. It's something to look forward to."
