Another LGBT Win
Italian Olympian, Rachele Bruni has just officially upped the number of LGBT athletes competing in the Olympics this year to fifty-one. After winning her medal and dedicating it to her “beloved,” people wanted to know who she was referring to. It was then she admitted it was for her girlfriend who had accompanied her to Rio. “I’ve never done a big coming out. Undoubtedly there are people who have too many prejudices, but I live peacefully. I do not think about the prejudices, I live for myself, for my passion for swimming and for the people who love me,” said Bruni.
