Happy first anniversary, Tom Daley!

The 20-year-old Olympic diver and and his boyfriend Dustin Lance Black both took to social media today to celebrate the one-year anniversary of Daley's coming out announcement. "1 year today! oh how time flies!" Daley tweeted today with rainbow emojis.

Daley's 40-year-old Oscar-winning beau also made a special shout-out for the ocassion. "Happy 1 year @tomdaley1994! Here's a family BBQ throw back to the good times before we could share! #bangs," Black posted on Instagram Tuesday along with a throwback photo of the lovebirds hanging out with family. Too cute.

Daley came out as gay in December 2013 in a touching YouTube video dedicated to his fans. "In spring this year, my life changed massively when I met someone and they made me feel so happy, so safe and everything just feels great," Daley said at the time. "And that someone is a guy. It did take me by surprise a little bit. It was always in the back of my head that something like that could happen, but it wasn't until spring this year that something just clicked. It felt right and I thought, 'OK,' and my whole world changed there and then."

Shortly after his coming out announcement, E! News broke the news that Daley and Black were a hot new couple. Before they officially started dating, the lovebirds were spotted hanging out together around L.A. in the months prior.

After being together for about six months, Daley and Black got serious and moved in together in East London.

Congrats, Tom!
