British diving star Tom Daley and hubby Lance Black announce baby

British diving star Tom Daley and filmmaker husband Dustin Lance Black revealed they are expecting their first child in a Valentine's Day Instagram post yesterday.

Daley, who won 10m platform gold at last year's world championships in Budapest, posted a picture of the couple holding up to the camera a black-and-white image from a baby scan, with the message "Happy Valentines Day!" to his 1.9 million followers. "Tom and Dustin are thrilled to share that they are expecting their first child in 2018," said a spokesman for Olympic diver Daley, 23.

His American husband posted another photograph on Twitter. "A very happy Valentine's Day from ours to yours."

The couple were engaged in 2015 and married last year. Daley, who has three world championships gold medals and two Olympic bronze medals, came out as gay in a YouTube video in 2013 in which he said he was "dating a guy and couldn't be happier."
