Tom Daley says the prospect of his young son watching him compete at the Olympics is "overwhelming" and admits fatherhood made him more determined to rediscover his love of diving.
Tokyo 2020 will be the 27-year-old's fourth successive Games and first since he welcomed the arrival of son Robbie, who will turn three later this month, with husband Dustin Lance Black.
Two-time bronze medallist Daley was included in Great Britain's 12-person diving team on Wednesday and acknowledges developments in his personal life have altered his perspective on sport.
"I think any athlete would be lying if they said that they didn't want to win an Olympic gold because it's every athletes' dream. And obviously that one has eluded me for my diving career so far," he said.
"I have to get to the start line in one piece and be there ready to compete at my best on that day with no regrets doing everything I possibly could have so I know that I couldn't have done any more.
"I just have to very much focus on my own performance, results will look after themselves. But, of course, it's always been a dream of mine."
Leeds-born Lee will make his Olympic debut at the age of 23. His elevation to the pinnacle of the sport was partly inspired by team-mate Daley.
"When I was younger, I was literally a fan of Tom's. Everyone was," said Lee.
"He was so young and so good, winning World Championships at 14-15, so I've looked up to him for ages. I have memories of watching London and Rio – I can't remember watching him at Beijing, I was quite young then.
"To know he's now my synchro partner is weird – there's a photo of me and him the first time we met and I'm just a little kid. It's funny how things have all worked out and now he's one of my best mates and my synchro partner.
"Some people don't realise what he's done. Those sort of athletes don't come around often across sport in the whole world.
"You have to give him praise for that as it's crazy what he's done and he's still performing really well to this day."
