His Instagram stories this week show him and his girlfriend, Hermione Wilson, enjoying a romantic trip to Dubai.

The couple, who went public in October last year, braved the slides at the Atlantis Aquaventure, which is the world’s largest waterpark, as well as an evening at Top Golf Dubai.

Nile’s professional gymnastic career began at the 2014 Commonwealth Games, where he won two gold medals, as well as one silver and one bronze.

The Yorkshireman later won a bronze at the 2016 Olympic Games, as well as three golds and two silvers at the 2018 Commonwealth Games.

On 14 January 2021, he announced his retirement from competitive gymnastics in a YouTube video, in which he cited health problems caused by the sport as the main factor.

On 12 March this year, Nile won the 15th series of Dancing on Ice alongside British-Spanish ice dancer Olivia.

They competed for nine weeks, beating reality TV star Joey Essex and Vanessa Bauer, and drag queen The Vivienne and Colin Grafton.
