Retired Olympic swimmer Rebecca Adlington reveals that she will encourage her daughter to get into sport when she is older.

Retired Olympic swimmer Rebecca Adlington is hopeful that her daughter will go into sport when she is older.

The 26-year-old, who gave birth to a baby girl on June 8, is married to fellow swimmer Harry Needs.

Adlington believes that if her daughter follows in her footsteps, she will gain more from life than just medals.

In an interview with BBC Radio Four's Desert Island Discs before she gave birth, Adlington said: "I'd love for her to go into the world of sport because I do think sport gives you so much more than medals and everything else.

"Both me and my husband come from the world of swimming, we've had such a great life, met the best people and we're so grateful for our careers that we would love her to have that."

The Brit has two Olympic golds and two bronze medals to her name.
