"I had a conversation with Her Majesty about how she would make such a great gymnast because she was so small," the Olympic champion revealed.
“She noticed I was with some of the divers and gymnasts and noticed we were smaller then the other athletes.

“And I said 'the smaller you are the faster you spin' and she said 'maybe I should have been a gymnast’ and I was like 'well you’re the Queen'."
Matty also shared details about his conversation with the King, revealing that they spoke the dangers of doing a belly flop from diving from such a height.
