Canadian skater Eric Radford has made history by becoming the first openly gay man to win a gold medal at the Winter Olympics.
The 33-year-old won the top prize in the team figure skating event at the Pyeongchang Games, performing alongside his partner Meagan Duhamel.
The pair impressed the judges at the Gangneung Ice Arena with a routine set to Adele's 'Hometown Glory'.
