The wife of an Olympic medal winner responded to her husband's outfit at the Games after fans questioned whether it was legal.
The Olympic Games is of course all about the sport, but uniforms and equipment worn by the athletes always brings plenty of talking points.
For example, at Paris 2024 some TV viewers weren't sure where to look when they noticed the extremely tight Speedos worn by French diver Jules Bouyer.

Another athlete, Turkish shooter Yusuf Dikec, has become a fan favourite for his laid-back attire and decision not to use the standard equipment used by his fellow competitors.
Then of course there's the celebration of the people who keep the athletes looking their best and most stylish, like the 'cap catcher' who jumps into the pool after events to retrieve the swimming caps of Olympians.
However, for the wife of American rower Henrik Rummel, apparel became a bit of a touchy subject.

Rummel won bronze at London 2012, but he went viral when people noticed that his bottoms were looking a bit tight.
Speaking to Cosmopolitan back in 2016, he said that he found the online chat around his 'bulge' to be 'hilarious' as it got him on The Colbert Report and The Daily Show.
However, it was something he wished his mum could avoid seeing and revealed that his wife wasn't happy that it was what people focused on.
He said: "I took it kind of tongue-in-cheek and I thought it was hilarious, but my wife didn't like it.

"She didn't like that everyone was talking about that and not about me winning a medal at the Olympics.
"And the same thing with with my parents, they couldn't avoid it at the time, and it's not something that I am happy they had to go through."
Athletes have to follow some pretty strict rules about what they can wear at Olympic events, while also considering of wearing something that won't hinder their performance.
The restrictions, which cover the length and style of clothes worn by athletes, means there is no question about their apparel being 'legal'.

Shorts and bikini bottoms are not allowed to exceed a certain size, while full body swimsuits were banned at the Olympics after it was found that they gave athletes an advantage.
All uniforms must be made from specific materials so it doesn't give anyone a boost compared to their rivals.
