Tom Daley has sold a pair of his own swim briefs for a staggering £10k in a public charity auction!

The five-time Olympic medallist sold his very own pair of the limited edition crocheted briefs in support of the new responsible drinking campaign he has developed with Malibu and the Royal Life Saving Society UK, called ‘Don’t Drink and Dive’. All proceeds from the auction will go to the Royal Life Saving Society UK, the charity that strives to provide water safety and educate in life-saving skills.

The briefs received a total of 112 bids when the auction concluded on Sunday evening, as fans flocked for the chance to purchase the 100% wool crocheted swimming briefs, handmade in the UK in partnership with Tom Daley’s Made With Love clothing line. Tom Daley took to Instagram to thank fans for supporting the auction and celebrated the money raised for the charity.
