Two-time Olympic swimmer Katherine Starr was just 14 when her coach sexually abused her. At that time she was called Annabelle Cripps but has changed her name since. Today she runs an organisation to help fellow athletes confront abusive relationships in sport.

She grew up in the US to British parents and her father was a swimmer as well.

Katherine came in to the Outlook studio to talk about what happened to her and the effect it had on her personal life and career. She began by telling Anu Anand that she was only three years old when she fell in love with swimming. She'd crept out of her paddling pool unseen.... drawn to the glimmering waters of the adult pool.
