Kelly Holmes: "I went to my first gay pub in Slough"

Available for over a year

Dame Kelly Holmes won two gold medals at the Athens Olympics in 2004, in the 800m and 1500m. What she kept hidden from public is that - at the height of her career - she also experienced a breakdown and felt she had to keep her sexuality out of the public eye. ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio Berkshire's Bridgitte Tetteh speaks to Holmes about her journey. If you have been affected by any of the issues raised in this story, search for "ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Action Line".
