Who is Jack Laugher’s girlfriend Lois Toulson?

Just like her boyfriend, she is from Yorkshire though Jack is from Harrogate and Lois is from Huddersfield.

Lois describes herself as an adrenaline junkie and is no stranger to springing into the pool from a handstand.

She made her major tournament debut at the Olympics, skipping past the World Championships and the Commonwealth Games to the biggest stage in sports.

What does Lois Toulson do for a living?

Lois has won many titles and medals in her career as a springboard diver.

Her fearless attitude helps her perform the 10m jump into the pool, where her partner prefers the 3m jump.

She said that she prefers the 10m jump because she feels that springing into the air comes more naturally to her.

Lois competed at the 2016 Olympic Games in the women’s synchronised ten metre platform event and went on to win a bronze medal for the same event at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

She has won a bronze medal, alongside Fred Sirieix’s daughter Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix, at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

Outside of the Olympics, she has won a silver medal in mixed 10m platform synchro at the 2017 World Aquatics Championships, alongside Tom Daley’s former diving partner Matty Lee.

How did Jack Laugher and Lois Toulson meet?

Jack and Lois have joked that they don’t remember when they met, which can make marking anniversaries difficult.

Though, they have said that they are sure that their first date was in a restaurant.

Since they had gotten to know each other through diving training and competitions, there were no awkward meet-the-parents moments.

The diving duo quarantined at Jack’s family home, making them even closer.

How long have Jack Laugher and Lois Toulson been together?

Jack and Lois have reportedly been together for around 7 years.

Although sometimes competing against each other, the couple often share pictures of them celebrating each other’s achievements.

In 2024, Jack made waves when he announced that he had joined OnlyFans and where he began sharing pictures of himself.

The diving superstar sees the humour in his OnlyFans account, saying “Obviously, I’ve got something people want, and I’ll happily cash in on that – I don’t care.”
