Tom Daley explores the trials of being a gay dad in new memoir.
But in his new memoir, “Coming Up for Air,” Daley reveals a new facet of his life being thrown under an unforgiving and sometimes bigoted microscope: fatherhood.
Tom Daley and Dustin Lance Black at the Vanity Fair x Bloomberg climate change gala dinner in London on Dec. 11, 2018.“As gay parents and gay dads, I sometimes feel like we are held to a higher level of judgment,” Daley, 27, writes. “When you are out in public, it feels like all eyes are on you to do the right thing or parent in the right way.”when he and Black had their son, Robbie Ray, 3, in 2018.
In the book, released Thursday, Daley also touched on the “hurdles” he and Black, 47, had to overcome to gain legal guardianship of their biological son, after having him via surrogacy., surrogates and their spouses are considered the legal parents of surrogate-born children at birth, even if they are not biologically related. Surrogates are often implanted with an embryo of which they have no genetic relationship to, also known as gestational surrogacy.
“In the same month he said ‘Dada’ for the first time, we were called to court for a hearing to begin the process to legally become his parents,” Daley writes. “It made us feel uncomfortable and not ‘good enough’; like we were an anomaly that the system couldn’t deal with.”
