Being happy in general makes life so much easier.

I've got to be a husband on my visa. Going to Russia can be scary - you've got to compete in front of lots of people who know I've got a husband.

It means so much to be European champion again with a personal best and I couldn't have asked for anything more.

The 2012 Olympics was such a high, but once it was over, I felt really down in the dumps. You don't really look beyond the event which you've spent four years preparing for, and so there's a bit of a comedown.

I wake up an hour and a half before I have to leave the house to do everything I need to do. But I have my routine, and I stick to it.

I feel extremely lucky to compete openly as who I am, not worry about ramifications.

My best advice for jet lag is to sleep as much as you can on a plane, no matter what time it is. Then, when you arrive at your destination, do some sort of physical activity.

I didn't look at any of the newspapers, I look at the pictures sometimes, but apart from that I don't read them.
